Great little hotel in central Neath, close to the Railway station and the castle...
Pros:

All good really. My upgraded room - the Katherine Jenkins suite - was very large and comfortable. The staff were great. There was a convenient and easy to use lift if the stairs were too much. Breakfast was fine. its usually continental but was cooked on the day I was there... Train station is literally 5 mins walk away...

Cons:

It was a little noisy which might be a problem for some people but didn't bother me. I also couldn't figure out how to turn the air conditioning on but that was my problem...

Travel for work so as long as it’s clean and comfortable and the staff were amazing then it’s a winner for us
Pros:

Diamond in the rough wasn’t expecting it to be as nice. Some great restaurants and bars around this place especially the Welsh house across the road

Cons:

Can’t blame the hotel for the noise from across the road at the “hotel” for undesirables. Blame the council and local government for that one

Not a good experience and I very much doubt I’d stay there again if I was to ever visit Meath again
Cons:

The bed was very uncomfortable,it was 2 single beds which I found strange,pillows were wafer thin and uncomfortable and for the sum of £85 for the night with breakfast included I sort of expected hot food instead of just one or two cold meats cheese,breads,fruit and cereals
