Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers modern and clean rooms at a great price with a fine dining experience. The service provided by the friendly staff adds to the pleasant stay, although the location may not suit everyone. The facilities are satisfactory, making it a good value for money option.
The room was a good standard, with clean and comfortable bed as well as modern bathroom and bedroom furniture above the pub. The service was extremely helpful, and they even put in a Z bed for our daughter. The location was perfect to explore Deeside, though a bit noisy at night. The dining experience was not worth the extra cost, and the self-service was inconvenient. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel room was lovely and bright, comfortable and exactly what we needed; however, it was directly above a VERY noisy bar that stays open past midnight and plays loud pub music. The service was excellent, superbly appointed room and the hotel owners were helpful. The dining experience was labelled as disgraceful to say the least, and the facilities were satisfactory.
