Red Lion Hotel

This was a two night stay using a Buy A Gift voucher that had been a present so no idea of room costs but I am guessing that they would be quite reasonable. Room was a fair size with a bath/shower and was very clean and comfortable. Fully cooked breakfast each morning was very nice as was the meal we had on our arrival and also good value. What impressed me the most however, was the incredible politeness of the staff for which I would like to thank them.

After a fabulous walk up Cadair Idris and not getting down until after sunset as we had already booked in to Red Lion Hotel as the plan was to walk the Brecon Beacons the following day it was a slow drive on the narrow B roads Needless we were extremely late arriving at the hotel, to late for dinner 9.10 pm, as kitchen closes around 8 pm. But what a welcome, shown personality to our room, if you get the chance ask for room 5. It’s the best double room on the second floor, enormous in size, wooden beams, comfortable bed with an large clear roof window directly above the bed. As you fall asleep you might get see a shooting star or two. Breakfast was generous and well cooked we have a full English breakfast yum. The staff are extremely friendly and a laugh in the bar too. Finally the price point is great and it’s woofer friendly. I just wished we could have stayed two nights or more. NB Remember to book room 5

We decided to eat here one evening whilst staying nearby and it was a lovely experience. The bar staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and the food was very good. We had a lasagne and a beef curry and both were very tasty and reasonably priced. The pub itself is cosy and had a roaring fire near to where we were sitting. Everyone in there was friendly and we would definitely return if we are in the area again.
