Castle Hotel  

Each room decorated differently. Evening meal good.

On main street- passers-by can look staright into restaurant.

The location just south of the Brecon Beacons is ideal for walks in the national park, since lots of walks can be done within half an hours drive. The staff at the hotel are friendly, and the rooms were clean, also they were a little bit dated. There is a locked car park adjacent to the hotel, for which you have to pay during the day, but its free in the evenings and weekends. Overall I would say that it is good value for money.

Nothing bad to say about the hotel itself, since I did not expect anything more for the price I payed. When it comes to going out for food in the evening, the location is not very good, since the only things we found was a rather rough looking Wetherspoon Pub, and some Asian food places. It is probably worth taking the car to go to the Leisure complex for dinner, but we only found out about it at the end of our stay.

Breakfast was ok.

The lights didn't work ,the tv didn't work , the hairdryer didn't work, the shower was impossible to use if you are over 4ft tall, the place was filthy and the bed smelled. In the bar I asked for a coke and was handed a can with Father Christmas on it (it's april !) - how long had that been there?

Basically, you get what you pay for and more, as a company we have travelled all over the uk, and value for money, it will exceed expectation.

It was excellent.

Too far from Cardif.

its location for town & visiting local area

the rooms are grubby and in need of re decor have not seen a pain brush for years

Room 105 was large but very cold on the night I was there. Windows seem draughty

The location was excellent, free parking up the road. All staff I met were great, and the food in the hotel was very good especially the curry. Wifi available throughout though, and at a good speed.

Rooms are a little dated, and could do with a little modernising. But everything worked and bed was very comfy.

I only came for one night in order to attend a funeral, but I was made as welcome as if I was staying for longer. The room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean with tea-making facilities and bathroom amenities. I had an excellent night's rest in a very comfortable bed! The location is excellent, being near the train/bus station and taxi service as well as a variety of good shops. All staff were very pleasant and helpful. It was a pity my visit was so short as I did not get the opportunity to sample the variety of food on offer in the restaurant. However, all my friends lunch there regularly and recommend it highly, so if/when I return to Merthyr Tydfil I will make sure I return to the Castle Hotel.

Friendly atmosphere. Big room. Comfortable bed.

Quite a lot of dust around, especially on plugs. Tv - old fashioned and not able to watch bbc1/2.

nice staff friendly

Not a great deal, very tired hotel with very tired if not exhausted rooms and decoration. Staff were OK noise frm the street very bad .

room size, decoration, beds, noise, bathroom

The hotel is very tatty and the rooms in need of a good clean.It has a central position but is in urgent need of decoration and updating.
