Really enjoyed our stay, only negative I have is that the door to the room was difficult to open, but that was because it was clear the room had been given a new comfortable carpet. Breakfast was great, lovely atmosphere

Enjoyable stays in the lovely hotel
The hotel is in the heart of Carmarthen city centre with easy access to all the shops and restaurants. It's easy to drive to the neighbourhood beaches, gardens. We love the stays in the hotel. The waitresses are very friendly and helpful. The English breakfasts are wonderful.

Great location for walking the Wales Coast Path.
The room was a little 'tired' but generally OK. Unfortunately the heating in the rooms was not on so it was occasionally cool. The hotel did apologise once we had pointed this out to them. The restaurant was good and the staff friendly. We would have liked prepared fruit for breakfast instead of a limited selection of unprepared fruit. Parking on site in a monitored car park was a real bonus. The hotel is in a fantastic location for access to the town centre and the bus and rail stations. Could not have been better from that point of view.
