Elegantly furnished to a very high standard, the rooms offer a sophisticated environment, and feature flat screen TV’s, tea/coffee stations and telephones. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property. Guests are welcome to relax in the extensive grounds. The hotel has several spaces that can accommodate wedding parties and other events. A full Welsh breakfast is served every morning, while the on-site Clarkes Restaurant, one of Usk’s best, uses the best locally sourced ingredients to create culinary masterpieces. High tea is also available weekdays. Set just on the outskirts of Usk, its facilities are nonetheless in easy walking distance.

It was very hard to find any comments criticising the staff, for either the services rendered or the spirit with which they were carried out. They were universally described as very friendly, professional and efficient when dealing with guest's queries or issues.
It was next to impossible to find a negative review of the food. From breakfast to dinner, guests seemed to really enjoy the taste and presentation of the meals. About the only criticism was that the portions were too large.
Though not mentioned as often as might be expected, several guests did compliment the hotel and its groundskeeper on doing an excellent job maintaining the gardens to a very high degree.
While guests didn't necessarily think that they had received poor value, they did note that the room-rates were very high. Some seemed to be in two minds about whether they really should have paid that much for a hotel room, not matter how great the service or location was.
Some guests mention that it is perhaps too popular as a wedding venue, with other guests either feeling left out, or at the mercy of the quality of the wedding party. If the party at the time they happened to be staying at the hotel was noisy, or rough in some way, it could tend to spoil their stay.
Unfortunately, the poor hotel Wi-Fi curse seems not to have passed over this beautiful part of Wales. Several guests speak of issues with Wi-Fi. Usually it was a case of losing signal, but also that it was sometimes just too slow to meet guest's needs.
