Central. Looked good at first sight. I booked this on the strength of the good review;. big mistake. Booked for the 30th and 31st December.
When we arrived at around 6pm Room 1 st the top of the stairs, above the bar was warm despite very low temperature outside. We were visiting family in the town so we unpacked and went out.
Returned at midnight as we had arranged on checked in. We were locked out, tried knocking for a while and had to call to get let in. At this point it was minus 2 outside and dropping. However, it was just as cold if not colder in our room. No heating on despite the temperature outside and it clearly had not been on for hours.
The double bed which is not a standard double had a light summer quilt on it. There was a shabby blanket which we did use on the bed but it was still totally inadequate. We both had to sleep fully clothed under the quilt with the blanket up over our heads and our coats on the bed too; no romance for us!
The mattress was so thin and/or old that we could feel the spring bed through it. I have never been so uncomfortable in my entire life, apart from when I was in army on exercise sleeping rough.
From 4am onwards I gave up on sleep and looked online for somewhere else to stay. As soon as I could face going into the even colder bathroom (still no heating in the room) I went to check in at the Belle Vue across the road. Returning only to collect luggage and my very tired and grumpy partner.
I spoke to a lady on reception (who was nice) and I explained we were checking out and why. Apparently the owner was busy getting ready for NYE, so when I was asked if there was anything further she could do, I replied that a refund on the remaining night would be appreciated; of course that has not been forthcoming.
At £120 per night this was overpriced (we did not eat breakfast) because it was only being served until just after nine and neither of us were in the mood for small talk; we just wanted to get out of there and get warm.

A great bolt hole for us at the start of a crazy few days away. It was a busy night, which wasn't a surpise and being on the top floor I was away from the ground floor.

The hotel is well-located for exploring mid-Wales and has a car park to the front. Contact with the hotel was excellent throughout and I was offered a free upgrade of room so that I had a shower rather than a bath which I had, apparently, booked. I was warned that my new room, Room 1, was above the bar and could therefore be noisy.....and it was due to large wake that lasted quite some time. Despite being so busy I was able to get a drink and evening meal and the food, Gujarat Beef followed by Sticky Toffee and Date pudding, was very good. A full cooked breakfast was included and was also good. The noise from the bar actually stopped by 10.30pm.
The hotel is 160 years old and does show it's age.......my bedroom door had sizeable gaps between it and the door frame and the floor was anything but level. The bed was also noisy and creaked loudly with every movement I made.

This Hotel is over 100 years old. It has character and a sense of total relaxation. If you want a modern bright hotel with no personality don’t go. Staff are very friendly, the owners are on sight again made you feel very welcome. All food seemed to be homemade. Me and my brother stayed there and we both agreed the food was excellent. Breakfast made to order every morning. Again the best quality rasher sausage etc. I would totally recommend this place. I don’t often do reviews but they deserve good feedback.
Would have loved to stay a few more nights.

Perfect place to stay for the Bog Snorkel and any other events held in the area
9.0 / 10.0
An excellent breakfast. Have what you want, provided they've got it. The owners and staff were very keen to ensure a comfortable stay. Alex and colleagues were very attentive at breakfast and dinner, even though they were very busy due to my stay coinciding with their Bog Snorkelling weekend. It was nice to stay in a hotel which didn't have the smooth running yet souless pretention of a hotel chain. Exiting my room to find the friendly hotel dog had chosen my corridor for a sleep added to the charm of the place. If you want immaculate and expensive fittings the same in every room, or communal hall carpets showing no signs of wear, then this place isn't for you. But if you want an old building with character and caring staff, then it is.
Remind residents they should book early for dinner during very busy times.

Lovely property old fashioned but that’s part of the heritage and if you visit the heritage centre nearby it has some interesting history! Beautiful room we stayed in the green room and it was lovely
I couldn’t stay longer :(

The staff were very friendly and welcoming and we enjoyed the relaxed and informal atmosphere. The location was ideal as a base for walking.
The restaurant menu was limited and some of the decor was shabby (worn carpets).

Full of character. Very welcoming and most helpful staff. Good food and drinks. We enjoyed our stay.
Nothing wrong with the property. The owners are slowly modernising without losing the character of the original building.

I was catching an early morning train on the Heart of Wales Line to go walking, when I mentioned I'd be leaving before breakfast they offered a packed breakfast/lunch which was excellent.

Very welcoming. Clean and a great location for the man v Horse race.
This building is 160 years old and very charming but don't expect modern facilities. Decor is very dated. Our rubber shower attachment on the bath took me back to my childhood in the 70s!
Hot water was limited first thing in the morning and early evening. The hot tap was actually dry when we returned from running the man v Horse race and needed to get clean.
I suspect when the hotel isn't fully occupied this might not be a problem.
The mattress was very thin and uncomfortable but others staying said theirs were fine so maybe luck of the drawer

Location was perfect as I was doing an event starting right outside. The hotel is iconic and main focal point of the town. Superb breakfast.
Hot water took a while to come out of the tap for the bath. I was very muddy and the shower attachment didn’t fit properly and hot water was Luke warm. This was when everyone else was using the water. Nice big bath though but I would have preferred a shower.

We stayed in Neuadd Arms Hotel for only one night, but were made most welcome. The staff were excellent and attentive. Breakfast proved to be a good start to the day.
There was nothing that we did not like. The fact that the furnishings etc. were a little worn only added to the charm of the place. For a longer stay, the lack of good phone signal or fast WiFi might be an issue for some, but there was sufficient connectivity for our needs.
