Good value for money but not mobility friendly
Lots of character but also LOTS of steps inside, no lift. Not suitable for anybody with limited mobility- we were on the third floor ( top) with a 90 year old pensioner in tow who luckily had a lower floor . Lovely market square location but if you like a quiet space dont have a room overlooking the square, there is a clock tower right outside that chimes from 7am till midnight... disturbed sleep. Delivery lorries restocking the kitchen/bar arrived early at the front door and banged noisily, no good for sleeping past 7am. The rooms are lovely but our Room 7 had a sloping roof section over the bed that resulted in a few head bangs when getting up at night. The bedroom crockery had coffee stains in the cups. The shower had been upgraded but needed cleaning/painting as the ceiling was mouldy and the edge of the shower tray needed a good clean. The mattress was like sleeping on a trampoline, if your partner turns over, you bounce two foot in the air! Plus points go to the staff in the bar and restaurant, very friendly and efficient, price of food and beer is good and quality of food/ portion sizes was excellant but beware of the 10% surcharge added unknowingly to your restaurant bill. I don't mind tipping ( and we did) but at my choice not theirs.

A very friendly and relaxed property to stay in. The food was fab. The place is quirky as it is so old. Situated perfectly between Leeds and Pembrokeshie coast to break our journey. Thanks for a lively stay.

Welcoming and helpful staff. Lovely historic building with some original features. We chose a simple double room. We will be returning, definitely booking a larger room next time. Excellent cooked Welsh breakfast.

Great food!
Nice hotel in a great location near to the caste ruins in Montgomery. My room was large, could benefit from an update but comfortable. The hotel itself has plenty of character. The best aspect though was the food. I had a wonderful evening meal with prawns in white wine to start and lamb with feta salad for main. Both were superb!

Great young team
Great stay at the Dragon, Montgomery is a real find we stayed as it was 15 minutes to Powis castle but so glad we did. Our room in the attic space was small (think it was last room left due to a wedding group) but we really enjoyed our stay. Very friendly young staff, great meal in evening and breakfast (wife said lentil burger was best she'd ever had). Small old historic town, old coaching inn type hotel , lovely staff we will come back again

Amazing
Fantastic 17th century Coaching Inn in the shadow of the beautiful Montgomery Castle. Free parking outside. Excellent service throughout. Wonderful food. Room was a little small with sloping roof but clean & well stocked. Amazing view across Montgomery with exquisite sunrise to greet you. Being 17th century it has a few quirks & anomolies as its a listed building. It all adds to the character & wonderful experience at The Dragon Hotel.

Room much smaller than looked on picture . Window did not open. Very hot and uncomfortable, which meant we both didn’t sleep well. Breakfast was good. We had a meal in the bistro which was average and overpriced.

Most enjoyable overnight stay at the Dragon. We had a large room overlooking the market square.Dinner was very good and reasonably priced. Breakfast a little disappointing with no fresh fruit or marmalade. All staff very helpful and friendly. We would stay again when next in the area.
