This was a cozy inn with a fantastic pub and helpful staff! However, there is nothing for miles around except beautiful nature walks so if you want more, bussing or a car is a must!

Griffin inn
Friendly service . Very clean and nicely presented place.
Lots to do in the area and staff happy to help with ideas. Nice little touch was a research area with comfortable chairs and leaflets , about the local area, to go through. Beer garden is a great place to relax.
Would definitely be happy to return

The hotel room was quite basic and not very well laid out, I thought. Bed was comfortable. Compared to others I stayed in during the same week this was a much lower standard but a very similar price.
Staff were really nice.

An enjoyable one night stay, the service and friendliness of the staff was excellent and much appreciated.
The only downside for us was the £20/dog/night additional charge which we considered to be highly excessive and would deter us from a future stay.

Very warm welcome, Room was clean and tidy .
I arrived late but had collected the key earlier in the day, which was no problem at all.
Breakfast was continental, but plenty of choice

The Griffin team made a good weekend. Great!
Impromptu weekend get away, walking in the Brecons. Hotel was extremely easy to find good visitors parking area. Checking in was simple and extremely friendly. Shown to the room and facilities. Booked for a event meal prior. Really good to see a small bar and restaurant buzzing!
Great simple food done well!
Recommend the Griffin for a weekend break.
