This hotel completely exceeded our expectations. We were greeted at the reception by a lovely lady who quickly checked us in and showed us to our room. |We were given the apartment which overlooks the high street. It is beautiful, clean and very well equipped. We loved it. 😍

Decent hotel, clean and comfy and warm. Feels a bit low key on entry but room was great and bed comfy. Parking is a challenge but they give you good directions and options if you are unsure with the limited width access. …

We stayed 1 night as visiting the area. The car park entrance was tight as informed; however it’s gated from 11pm which keeps your vehicle safe. Our room (7) was comfortable. …

Absolutely perfect room for my business trips. Loads of thoughtful little touches. Very clean. Plugs by the bed for phone and laptop chargers. Little desk to work from. Lovely bathroom. Little smoking area out the back by the car park. Locating the car park was a bit stressful so I parked up the road in a different car park and walked down. Brilliant stay and this will definitely be my hotel of choice when working in Carmarthen.

Nice small hotel with friendly staff. The room was standard size and superbly finished. The bathroom was spacious and fitted to a high standard. Breakfast service was fast and good quality. ||The car park is not for the feint hearted but if you follow the guidance it is fine. I would happily stay again. Thank you.

Stayed here for 2 nights with my husband. Beautifully furnished room, spacious bathroom and comfortable bed. Located in the middle of the town, opposite a coop and wetherspoons, it's in a perfect location. Breakfast service was wonderful and the staff were a pleasure to be greeted with every morning. I would stay here again.

Stayed here for 3 nights. The room was large but for our liking the bed was soft and the pillows as well. The staff were fantastic and couldn’t have been more helpful. The only concern was the entrance to the car park which is tiny and required a 3 point turn from the road to line up. We drove an MX5 and that was right. I’d suggest if you’ve got a BMW x5 or similar you’ll really struggle to get into the car park

What a lovely hotel. Great quality rooms, excellent cleanliness and a lovely breakfast. Couldn't ask for more 😊 carpark entrance is tight, make sure you follow their website instructions, if you have a large car park in the public carpark instead

If this isn't the best hotel in Carmarthen I'd like to see the better one. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and thoughtfully designed, with a fridge and sensibly arranged useful furniture. …
