The Castle Hotel

Avoid this pub with rooms at all costs.
We stayed during Covid-19 pandemic and the hotel was dirty both outside and not very clean inside.
Tea/Coffee in the bedroom was black and solid it had never been changed for weeks. Although the soft furnishings were new/modern the carpet and bathroom were not.
Just avoid for a drink or overnight stay

All the good reviews on this place are lies go with the bad ones and you won't be disappointed. The brecon beacons are flatter than the bathroom floor . TV that didnt work . The whole place needs a revamp . Avoid this place at all costs cleaner's vacuum even has mud flaps attached to it .. I star is to much for this hotel (bail hostel)

Room was clean and functional. Bed awful . Like sleeping on a board. Lovely traditional old pub though. Beer was cheap and the barkeep Alex was lovely. But for £45 for one night you can’t expect much.

We booked and paid for 2 rooms, arrived at 7.30 pm, the place was shut, locked. We asked around locally and were told " You don't want to stay there " and other horror stories.

Awful place to stay, needs some serious money spent on this place. Our room had no heating for 3 nights (January). One star is probably too much to be honest. Just avoid here and go somewhere else.

Mixed feelings about The Castle Hotel. Room 7 was acceptable with clean sheets and towels, TV and free WIFI. Bathroom left much to be desired. Towel rail unuseable as it was hanging off the wall, toilet roll holder was hanging on for grim death, black mold around the base of the shower, apuddle of water in front of the sink after using the toilet and the sink, not sure where it was coming from, sink, waste or macerator! Maybe consider a proper net curtain wire instead of string and a coat hook on the back the bathroom door. Believe the owners should have used the opportunity of lockdown to run a simple, easy and cheap maintenance programme. Also believed the price included breakfast after reading previous reviews, Sadly not, had to walk down the road to Granny's Cafe and had an excellent breakfast, however this added an extra £17 to £70 one night stay.

This is one of the worst places I’ve ever stayed and I’ve stayed a lot of places. The bathroom was disgusting with mould all round the bath, the bedroom had sticky carpet and peeling wall paper. If it was cheap it would be bad, but at what is cost it was atrocious.

Dirty yellow coulered duvet and pillow room smells as if it's never been cleaned since the great plague of London absolutely shocking.
Wouldn't ever stay there again rubbish.
