I’ve not even waited until getting home to write this review as this is quite simply one of the best weekend breaks we’ve ever had! After a busy week in work we decided to book an impromptu night away. From the second we arrived, I’m so glad we did!! The room was fantastic, beautiful and tastefully decorated, comfortable bed and spotlessly clean. We’ve just enjoyed a wonderful breakfast, and the staff are really friendly. I’m taking in the view one last time before checking out, but we most certainly will be back and I recommend everyone to do the same- it’s amazing what a difference one night away in a lovely venue can do!!

Right from check in everyone was friendly & helpful, room absolutely spotless, underfloor heating in the bathroom, spacious & comfortable. Absolutely beautiful meal at the Pen Y Cae Inn, a minutes walk from the room, we paid for breakfast the next morning which was delicious. Would highly recommend.

Strongly recommend this hotel . Great location, very close to the Henrhyd Fall and Nant Llech walk. The neighbourhood was very quiet. Hotel room was roomy and clean, though the bathroom was lovely size and clean. There were wide varieties of selection of food and drink items in dinner, one of the best so far. Price was very reasonable as well, and their staff was professional and friendly.

Had a lovely stay at the Sleeping giant hotel. Beautiful room with high quality decor, comfortable bed, lovely heated floors in the bathroom, nice recliner chair, great view onto the hill. Parking right next to the room for us. Had great dinner at the pub, delicious lamb and seafood. Every single person we spoke to was friendly and approachable. Amazing addition was little zoo with animals, our children were so happy to pop in and say hello to some birds, wallabies, goats. Other all great stay, recommend.

This room was amazing could not ask for any more luxury it was perfect. The room was warm and comfortable. While watching TV, you had a choice of the bed or sitting on a soft corner settee which was comfortable, it’s nice to have an option. Had a great night sleep which followed on to a good hearty breakfast. The breakfast was brilliant and very filling, the price was great as some places I have stayed in the breakfast was not as nice and a lot more expensive. The staff at the Pen-Y-Cae Inn was brilliant and made you feel at home. Thank you all so much making my stay amazing, I will be definitely coming back with my husband
