Llangoed Hall

Enjoyed our golden wedding anniversary at this countryside hotel. The breakfast was plentiful and evening menu was excellent. What was interesting to learn, was that the young female bar manager used to be a chef and had written the menu. This, while seemingly unconventional, worked a treat when asking for drink suggestions! If you’re looking for a relax, you will find Llangoed Hall the perfect place. This is a fabulous hotel with comfy beds and many relaxing communal areas to enjoy. I would recommend in a heartbeat.

We enjoyed and would recommend a two night stay at this wonderful country hall hotel, where we celebrated our anniversary. The rooms are maintained to a very standard, we initially were allocated a ‘State Room’ (14) Pink Room, with lovely views to the rear of the hotel. Unfortunately the walk in shower did not work properly on our second day. We were immediately moved (upgraded) to a ‘State Deluxe’ ‘Blue’ room (9), a large corner room at the front of the hotel which was spacious and comfortable. The staff were so friendly and could not have been more helpful. The breakfasts and evening meal were delicious, the staff worked very hard but there were not sufficient in my opinion to manage all the residents at meal time. My only thought was that for evening meals, background music would be more appropriate so that conversations on other tables would be less coherent. If you are looking for relaxation you will find there are plenty of rooms and comfortable seating around the hall in which you can ‘chill’, including a billiard room. All rooms are on the first floor and with no lift, there are about 25 steps to manage. I enjoyed walking around grounds, the gardens are well maintained, there is a herb garden and greenhouse, and a small pond with ducks and ducklings on. We enjoyed visiting the local area including the Monday market at Hay on Wye, a lovely town. This is an outstanding luxury hotel which I’d highly recommend for any occasion and would not hesitate to return in the future.

Llangoed Hall Team, From the moment we arrived, we were genuinely welcomed and cared for. Thank you. Dinner was delicious, and breakfast also. It is the first hotel we have stayed at that genuinely felt like a warm invitation into a friend’s home and we would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Llangoed Hall to our nearest and dearest. We wanted to extend a special thank you to Jeremy and Abbie. What an incredible team they are! The way they work together, anticipating each other's needs and movements without a word, is phenomenal. It was no surprise to learn that they have worked together for years; their synergy made our entire experience seamless. Thank you again for creating such a memorable experience.

We've started an annual tradition of coming from Bristol for the weekend because we love it. The art collection is superb. The dinner is top notch. The surrounding countryside creates ample opportunities for walks and visits. It's slightly hard to describe - it's like staying with the aristocratic posh relatives you never actually had. It's understated, friendly, homely, imperfect, a little bit dishevelled, in an endearing way. There's no bling here, more muddy wellies and vegetables from the garden. Keep going!

Excellent place to stay. We were made to feel very welcome by the staff when we arrived. Everyone was so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. We felt looked after from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Food was fantastic and drinks were reasonably priced with good local options to choose from. Overall the venue had a great atmosphere and was very clean. Would certainly recommend staying at this hotel if you can.

This hotel is inadequate on so many levels. Grossly overpriced for the level of service and quality of the experience. Significant investment in refurbishment, maintenance and staff training is needed. The tone was set from the outset, with no one at reception, until we’d rung the bell 3 times, when the manager appeared. The outside areas were very crudely maintained, with numerous overgrown areas. The quality of the housekeeping was poor, with dead flies, dust and cobwebs in numerous places. The glass in the doors collected finger marks for the 3 days we were there, and my request for this to be addressed was ignored. The room curtains featured shredded linings. The food offering was very average and overpriced. I have never seen such small scallops, or such a minute and poorly-cooked steak (£35!).Belly pork was OK, but small portion. I have had better breakfasts at a Travelodge. A soggy buffet, with no à la carte options. No butter or milk jug on the table. Honey ´on request’ (why?). No fresh flowers anywhere, just some ancient dead ones. One server, doing his best. In summary, this hotel seems poorly managed, very understaffed, substandard and lacking in the attention to detail one would expect for over £300 a night. It will require huge investment to bring back any semblance of its full potential.
