Love, love, love these beds! Great nights sleep. Good sized rooms, easy thermostatic controls and very clean. We were a family of 4 travelling to visit relatives and we enjoyed a 2 night stay in 2 x family rooms. Bathroom was spotlessly clean and it's always great to have the addition of a bath. Powerful hot shower and good quality soft towels too. Breakfast was of a high standard and plentiful, staff were really attentive and we were very well cared for.

Estaba en una noche. No estoy seguro si debido a la renovación, la zona de recepción no era muy bienvenida, bastante auto-incheck configurado, pero también personalizado. Hotel ocupado, piscina popular, gimnasio, necesita esperar su turno para la sauna y la habitación de vapor, pero impresionado con instalaciones. La habitación era básica. La habitación necesitaba sin duda actualización y la presión de ducha no es grande.

Después de un gran día en el rugby, llegamos al hotel alrededor de las 11:30 pm y nos registramos, el personal era amable y servicial. Un poco borrosos, todos esperaban con ansias la cama. En el camino a nuestra habitación después de salir del ascensor, me sorprendió ver lo que parecían escombros de una teja rota por todo el piso, casi como una escena de Pablo Escobar en narcos. A pesar de esto, continuamos a nuestra habitación, ansiosos por golpear las sábanas. Las camas eran sólidas con almohadas más duras que los ladrillos pero tan planas como el cartón. Había un total de 3 almohadas entre dos personas (con mucho gusto sacrifiqué la almohada extra a mi amada, una pérdida que me alegró aceptar). Después de quedarnos dormidos, nos despertaron gritando, golpeando las puertas y golpeando lo que parecía un oído de animales. Esto continuó durante bastante tiempo y nos sorprendió que el personal no hubiera tomado ninguna medida para calmarlos. Finalmente, dejaron de permitirnos quedarnos dormidos solo para que sucediera lo mismo alrededor de las 3 a.m., con la misma acción que antes, nada. . . Nos despertamos pensando en el largo viaje por delante con ganas de salir a la carretera. Al salir de nuestra habitación del hotel, perplejos al ver los restos de tejas del techo que todavía cubrían la alfombra en el pasillo, decidimos subir las escaleras solo para ser recibidos por un campo minado de hamburguesas, papas fritas y kebabs a medio comer. Olía horrible indicando que el personal había tomado la misma acción, nada. . . Me fui preguntándome si había visitado un Ibis en Gales o un barrio pobre en Somalia. ¿Me quedaría allí de nuevo? No, pero si no te afecta nada de lo anterior, este es el lugar para ti. Lo mejor del hotel era el rápido permiso de estacionamiento para los autos. Muy eficiente ?

I stayed here for a business trip for one week. The room seemed to be clean but it is so dark that you can’t really tell if it is clean or not. That’s actually an issue - the lightening is bad. I couldn’t really work in the room since it had only a yellow ambient lightening and not a normal main source of light. The bathroom can be slightly cold if you don’t leave the door open so that warm air from the A/C can enter. It is shameful that they don’t have a breakfast included, especially for long stays in the hotel which is not so cheap and out of the center… at least one small sandwich would make things better, but nop 👎🏼. Another thing is that the area is not very nice. Unless you have to do something in that area, i don’t recommend you to stay. I was even told by taxi drivers to not walk around alone after it gets dark. Before I knew that, I did take a walk and it really felt a bit unsafe. The staff was ok, I didn’t have much contact with them. Only had an incident when I arrived - they couldn’t find me in their system (it was booked under other name by mistake but I actually changed it a week before arrival so I don’t know why they didn’t have updated information). There is a small gym, but almost all machines, except one, are for cardio exercises. Almost no restaurants or shops in the area.

This was our fourth or fifth stay at Bryn Meadows over the course of 8/9 years and it's always more special at Christmas. I have always found it reminiscent of the hotel where Johnny and Baby had the time of their lives 😂 so I find the slightly dated exterior charming. So to address the point of many reviews... Yes, the rooms are dated... We have had all types during our visits and having a suite does make all the difference... The dark furniture is to miserable for the small rooms but fine in the larger. Yes, in some places the cracks of time are visable such as a cracked tile here and there but nothing I found to be so severe it would put me off visiting. Our bedroom was spotless The beds continue to be amazing! The complaints I do have that stops me giving this 5 star again is the bathrooms... There was a strong smell coming from the tub... It wasn't an offensive smell but it did smell of strong soap and it put me off along with the yellow stains on the wall. They are very miserable. Again the spa was lovely... But I don't know why they have created lanes when it's just for the casual spa days. We had dressing gowns but no slippers and when my husband rang to enquire we were told they didn't supply them anymore due to health and safety... Wish we had been told before as walking back to room wasn't fun! Then we seen a bunch of people with the slippers on.b I do think they need to slightly up their spa game if they want to keep their reputation as they haven't grown along with competing spas and charge the same. We only used the restaurant for breakfast this time which is standard but enjoyable... I've always enjoyed the evening meals we've had... But this time we discovered a local pub called Bistro 8 and it's well worth the ten minute drive... £7 taxi fare... Not the cheapest pub but special. The views here are incredible no matter the season. This hotel despite its flaws simply has my heart... Worth a visit 😀
