Simple, clean and comfortable room. The host, Claire, was wonderful - great communication and she went out of her way to help me out during my stay (providing advice on local activities, storing bags, drying some wet clothes). Breakfast was excellent.

The location was convenient and the price was reasonable, which is the reason I had booked. There are places to eat nearby, according to google maps.

This guesthouse is fantastic. Very close to the town and if you drive there is plenty of street parking. Everything about the room was lovely. Comfy beds and very clean. The room I was given had a kitchen with stove and washing machine...a nice surprise. Absolutely no complaints .

Definitely need a car to get around this area.
Definitely need a car to get around this area. Not quite the luxury I was looking for. Accomodation and breakfast where I stayed was fairly basic. Quite limited in eating out options too.
Managed to walk the Pen y Fan which was the highlight of my stay here.

Nice town with some lovely places to go for a drink and a bite to eat. Friendly bar with live music at the weekend. Also there is a Wetherspoon. The Zip World was only a 30 min drive away and is fantastic. Great scenery and walks near by.

Only stayed 2 days and then was at an event so not enough time to explore. However on an evening plenty of places to eat and drink. Tesco Extra and range of other shops incl. Saturday street market. Train and bus transport hub, and plenty of places to explore a short distance away.

Liked the fact it has good public transport links to the Brecon Beacons the town itself looks a bit run down in places like many these days but had everything we needed with lots of things to do nearby. We enjoyed climbing Corn Du, Pen Y Fan, visiting Lyn Cwm Llwch, walking along parts of the Taff Trail, visiting The Brecon Mountain Railway, Cyfarthfa Castle and park as well as things further a field.

Great places to visit. We where only there for two nights. We enjoyed the waterfalls and the steam train ride. There are plenty of places to eat out.
We saw lots of cyclists whilst traveling in our car. Found the area very dog friendly which suited us .

Centre -lovely trails and views.
Also the Brecon Beacons were within easy reach.
We ate at Nant Ddu the first night and shared 3 tasty side dishes between us.
Not too far from 3 near locations where my Dad was born and lived in Penwhriceiber, Cefn Pennar and Mountain Ash. Able to visit as near.
Very homely cosy apartment, nicely situated next to the river and close to shops. Neil is fantastic, and really helpful. We stayed at Station House as we were visiting family in Merthyr Tydfil for Christmas. As well as off street parking, you also have access to a garage, so I imagine this would be a really great property if your visiting Bike Park Wales and it’s also very close to the Taff Trail. Great stay and will definitely return next time we are visiting family.
The area was quiet and free parking at the back of the hotel..the room was basic but well equipped for my needs. The shower was tall enough for me(I'm 6ft5) and water pressure was great..The TV was great and the single bed was very comfortable..the breakfast was fabulous and the staff very attentive but not obtrusive. This is my second time at Antelope Hotel and I will be back..
The location was perfect for MB Wales and route 8 cycling path. Easy to get to by car from main routes. Great secure bike storage. Beds were very comfortable and a great shower. Parking directly outside of the property. Great view from the living room. Few minutes walk to a local shop. Would definitely recommend and we will be staying again when back in the area.
Loved the amount of space you get for parking and open space. Bike lockup was spot on and not noticable. Living room was great so was the kitchen. Bedrooms were spot on with a large bathroom. Location was fantastic. 10 minutes from BPW. Nice and quiet high up in the hills. We didn't struggle with takeaways. We'll definitely be back next year.
Restaurants food was exceptional. Carvery was same as other carveries in major chains but all food appeared to be home made. We gave the hotel restaurant a go on night 1 and went back again night 2. Staff were really friendly when you could find them as they all multitasked. Room size was great, both our rooms had double and single beds in.
The property is located within easy reach of many areas of interest in the Brecons - typically a 30 minute drive. There is an excellent Chinese take-away within 5 minutes walk from the property. The owner/manager did respond quickly to help when we needed to switch on the central heating.
We have stayed in various hotels in and around Merthyr Tydfil over the years visiting my husband's
Family, Llwyn Onn guest is by far the best
Lovely location, super clean and comfortable
With welcoming staff
We were treated like guests not customers
Nice little cottage, plenty of room inside. Spacious back yard. Comfy beds. We only used it to store bikes and sleep in during the evening. It's approx 3 miles from Merthyr Tydfil high street. Local Londis two minute walk away.
Location was perfect for the Brecon Beacons and Bike Park Wales activities.
Bedroom and bathroom were very clean and tidy.
Breakfast was fantastic - many options available.
Staff was friendly and welcoming
Perfectly placed for bike park Wales, cheaper than any of the other hotels around there. Also allowed us to bring the bikes indoors over night providing secure storage. For the money it was bang on.
Perfectly clean property, everything we needed for our couple nights for the boys visit to Bike Park Wales. So much better than staying in a hotel and bonus we could bring Merlin 🐾.
