A little tired but comfortable and lovely food

Really late deal for me and my daughter. Staff were all fab, everyone we met was very accomodating. Pool and room were very tired, rotted skirtings and pool tiles lose in pool (my daughter made it a game to collect them). That said, food was amazing and bed very comfy.

Went there for a break over Xmas with family, nice hotel, has lots of potential but in need of updating/modernising. The rooms are large but scruffy. Decent pool and sauna area

Location and staff couldn’t be faulted

We arrived as a last minute stay for a sunrise hike for Pen Y Fan on a winters night. The hotel is a 5 min drive from the national trust car park from where everyone ascends so a perfect location for anyone exploring the Brecons. As with some of the other comments, the hotel was dated and in need of a refresh. The pool facilities were fine, though the hot tub wasn’t bubbling, or overly warm on our stay. However, the hotel staff were superb! They were super friendly, attentive and couldn’t help you enough. We found this with everyone we spoke with. The dinner (chicken and bacon in Stilton sauce) was incredible and the breakfast was a standard buffet continental and a cooked to order dish, all of which was perfect for what we needed. Certainly worth staying if exploring the Brecons for a weekend.

Good place to stay

Overall a nice place to stay as near Brecon Beacons, the gym, spa and pool a bonus. Breakfast fab, the evening meal I had venison and only 2 small pieces, which was overcooked and expensive but otherwise all good….

Staff very friendly, helpful and professional. Room was clean and comfy. There was some cobwebs in bathroom and on first night accidentally spilt some tea on duvet but this was not changed when room was serviced next morning. But would stay there again the food was very nice and the pool was lovely. Although the building could do with some maintenance. We stayed two nights and had a very pleasant stay.

I've stayed in this hotel in the past because the location right in the middle of the Brecon Beacons is perfect and gives you easy access to all the great hiking to be found here. What has disappointed this time is the deterioration in the hotel, there really has been a lake of investment and it's looking very tired. The room that I had was very uncomfortable with bed springs coming through and poor furnishings, not having a shower in this day and age is surprising. That said the staff were very pleasant and the food was good.

We keep going back.

Always love going to the Nant Ddu Lodge. Staff are amazing and the food is very good too. Bit disappointed with the beds this time, maybe time to change a few mattresses? But overall an excellent stay as usual. This is why we keep going back

Lovely stay in the Brecons

Lovely location, great to have the spa and restaurant onsite. Food was delicious - evening and breakfast. Spa was a nice extra (pool, sauna, steam room, lukewarm jacuzzi) but glad we didn't have to pay as it is a bit tired. All in all a very nice stay and perfect location for Pen y Fan

Not the best, on arrival the sign directing cars to the car park was hanging upside down directing you towards a fence. Staff were polite, pool and spa looked nice didn’t get a chance to use it. Room was poor, broken light fitting, stains on carpet, cobwebs and bathroom was in need of renovation along with the room. Very noisy corridor even late at night. On the plus side there was very good breakfast to set you up for a days walking. With a bit of renovation and a deep clean could be a nice hotel.
