Great hotel with amazing staff, especially Richard and his wife who made us our lovely breakfast’s and were extremely friendly and helpful during our stay, as was the owner. We stayed for two nights and the room was spacious, comfortable and clean. The bar and restaurant serves lovely food and the quiz night when we stayed was very good. Although we didn’t do so well with the answers… it was all in great spirit and helped raised some money for a local charity. Not far from the hotel, a short walk over the railway crossing bridge is the main town which offers a few other pubs, takeaways, and other amenities so there is other things to do and see. The best thing about this place, however, was the staff, who were some of the nicest and friendliest staff we’ve encountered on our many stays in and around England, Scotland and Wales while working away. There isn’t a thing we didn’t like about our two day stay, the prices were reasonable and very very good considering the whole package, the rooms were nice and clean, quiet, comfortable and with in room amenities. I must compliment Richard and his wife for their hospitality, for allowing us to join the quiz and for their lovely breakfasts, the owner too for his lovely chats and for making us feel like we weren’t just guests, but locals. We will definitely be staying here again, hopefully in the next few weeks as we will be working close by here soon.

Decor, yes, it is "outdate," but I love it. Old fashion but clean and smells nice. The linen is very white and soft. The location so many twist and turns but, it's wales. They always have hidden great places. The shower and bath my fave. The room they gave me, I can see my car. I don't have pictures, but I did my review in my youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/live/aBH56bYh6Qc?si=BuT9vTU75Q3_WSa0

Aberdare seems a pleasant enough Welsh town with a good number of pubs and eateries and good access to surrounding towns, countryside and Cardiff. Our stay was largely about visiting family and so we did not make intensive use of the available entertainment.

National Trust Big Pit and getting to go down disused coal mine - staff were fabulous, really interesting for all ages and worth a visit. Free Tower Zip World - hubby and son had a fab 1-1.5 hours on zip line - Approx £50 each. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Bike Park Wales - £47.00 each without equipment hire they do full hire package too - well worth the visit, staff were friendly. Exhausting but fulfilling day spent going down mountain - you learn how unfit you are though as it is physically challenging. Barry Island - Home of Gavin and Stacey - paid parking but sea front is clean and well served - we went in April so rides etc only open at weekends but beach is clean and sandy. G/F fish and chips from Boofy’s on the sea front - fab ouuu lusss. Dunraven Pub - Treherbert - fab food and fab service. Catered for my Coeliac hubby which was a true bonus. Four Waterfalls Walk - amazing views and worth a visit but requires a decent amount of fitness, walk is 7.8 Kms and is tough going at times on uneven surfaces, gravel rocks, tree roots and slippy surfaces - dogs allowed but our Scottish terrier was k******ed by the time we got back, her legs were stumpier than usual. Parking around £5.00

I was born in Aberdare and it was good to visit after many years. As with many valleys towns it looks sad compared to what it used to but still has many things to attract visitors including an excellent market. It is an ideal position for the Dare Valley Country Park as well as the Brecon Beacons. The town park - just north of the town centre - is a brilliant place where motorcycle racing occurs annually. If you stay there, try to do the Waterfalls Walk around Ystradfellte and Penderyn.

Very easy walk into town, which is well serviced by a broad range of local shops along with a nearby Tesco superstore with petrol station. Needed an optician (forgot to pack spare contact lenses( and a choice of three within 5 mins walk.

Jo and Paul have got it right. From the lovely friendly welcome we got when we arrived to the beautiful spacious room along with an amazing tea and coffee making tray. The Cadbury’s hot chocolate cups were a lovely addition. They gave us recommendations for dinner. Went to Amore an Italian restaurant which was amazing. And then the breakfast. Jo said we wouldn’t leave hungry and we certainly didn’t. What a cooked breakfast it was. Thank you once again for a lovely stay in Aberdare. X

The location was at the edge of a lovely town and a short drive to the brecon beacons The hotel itself was more motel style which is something we are not used to however the place itself is very humble. It was like staying over at a relatives house. There were no fancy facilities but it's not advertised that way. Just a quiet hotel next to the river. Sue was also very lovely and accommodating. And she gave us some fresh eggs to take home!
