Plas Derwen  

Friendship & courtesy of everyone & safety & ease of car parking.

The restrictive breakfast menu which would benefit froma wider variety of a cooked breakfast. I.E. Salmon, smaller portion of scrambled eggand watercress or suchlike., Unaccompanied by obligatory toast but the option of separately providing toast or bread and butter (white or brown.,

Staff could'nt do enough for us,everything about the place was first class.Thank you,will stay again.

Homely comfortable hotel, rooms spacious and quietly appointed as seperate dwellings. Staff friendly and helpful. Wonderful quality food from Welsh suppliers, good selection, restaurant not pub food, but not overpriced. Good location with Abergavenny within 5 minutes walking- lovely shops, markets, castle, museum and galleries. Lovely views with mountains overlooking. Would definately recommend.

Excellent value for money. Good proximaty to Abergavenny town.

The room was clean and comfortable and suitable for our needs

Information of the menu should have been in the room and the breakfast selection could have been wider and toast was not offered as an option.

I opted for this hotel as it was the only place I could get the requisite number of rooms at the time of booking and didn't give it much more thought after that but on arrival I realised how fortunate I'd been to book rooms there. The hotel was easy to find and the welcome on arrival was warm whereas the beer available from the in-house bar (and restaurant) was pleasingly cold!! My party ate at the hotel on our second night and whilst the starter and dessert could probably have been warmer, I thoroughly enjoyed my main course choice of locally-produced pork. The full Welsh breakfast in the morning set me up nicely for the day ahead!! The hotel owners/staff were friendly and helpful but not intrusive which, along with the unexpected size, style and comfort of the rooms (given the relatively low price per night) it all made for a good value for money break away for my party and I. The location of the hotel was ideally located within easy walking distance of the peaks I intended scaling and the town of Abergavenney had plenty of shops, places to eat etc. All in all a really relaxing and enjoyable trip away and I would without hesitation recommend Plas Derwen to others.

There wasn't anything about this hotel that I didn't like. If I had to find a negative at all, it would only be two very trifling things; i) that I could hear the plumbing "follow-throughs" whenever someone in one of the adjoining rooms flushed their loo or ran their taps. ii) that the area of carpet next to my party's breakfast table hadn't been swept/hoovered prior to breakfast on the second morning and meant that there were wrappers, crumbs still visible but seeing as I wasn't eating off the floor it had no direct detriment to me and I just assumed that they'd not had time prior to the morning guests arriving for their food.

Clean, easy to check in

It took over 40 minutes for a cooked breakfast to be served which when combined with unforseen traffic jams destryed the planning for te whole day. Breakfast should have taken no more than 30 minutes altogether.

Lovely big bedrooms, good beer,friendly staff,pleasing basic food well cooked.

A lick of paint is needed here and there..just slightly disappointed with the cooked breakfast- better quality sausages needed please!

privacy - access to car parking - outside room quick service in restaurant cleanliness

not having comfortable chair in room to view television in evening before retiring - not comfortable sitting on bed also TV wrong angle for viewing off bed also seat of chair in front of mirror had sagged quite badly so that was not comfortable to sit on neither only minor details and would not mention when recommending stay to others

A great hotel

The staff were polite and very helpful and the service excellent.The food was very good too.I shall certainly consider staying there again

good position, comfortable and quiet room, good service good breakfast, no fuss

Good food, accomodation, and value for money.
