Good location for my needs. Easy parking Wasn't as nice as I expected - interior looking rather tired, staff weren't friendly or especially helpful, a dog barked outside disturbing sleep several times.

The welcome at reception on arrival was excellent and the member of staff very helpful. There was a coach party staying and we thought an evening meal might have been busy but as independant guests we were seated in a separate room which made our meal very pleasant. The food quality was also excellent and the staff very helpful. We booked an executive room which was very spacious and clean although the decor needs updating and does appear a little tired. The staff member at check out was very offhand and did not even bother to ask if we had had a nice stay or even thanked us for our custom, we were just grateful that she was not there when we checked in.

There was a friendly and warm atmosphere and all the staff we encountered were very helpful and kind. We enjoyed the evening meal and the cooked breakfast. The lounges were clean and comfortable. Our room, though clean and comfortable, needed decorating. The windows needed a new coat of paint, inside and out.

Convience to town and general amenities. Friendliness of staff. We have stayed in executive rooms in other hotels before, we were disappointed that there were no towelling dressing gowns, slippers or fruit in rooms which would be appropiate to an executive room.

Full english breakfast was wholesome, well prepared and always fresh. The staff were helpful when we required a taxi and none were available - they provided hotel van. Rooms were clean, reasonable towels (as opposed to old worn and cloths) and had lots of lights… useful on a dull day. Paying £10 a day for internet - this is over the top. If not free, should be around £4-6/day or 10/stay. The room i had was a long way down lots of corridors … and on the main road. No views. Beds were so soft/springy I almost disappeared into it.

The Ivy Bush had a reputation for many years as a luxury hotel; it's nice to see it back to a good standard after years of resting on its laurels and failing miserably under Regal Hotels. The welsh staff members are excellent in reception and restaurant. Just one small thing, if you aspire to being a top notch hotel, attention to detail is of paramount importance; putting one biscuit in the hospitality tray in a double room is penny-pinching - better to put none than to draw attention to meaness! The hotel is not cheap so two plain biscuits should not be an issue.
