Castle Hotel
7.0 (27 reviews)

Castle Hotel ★★★

📍 Castle St, Town

"Hotel stunk of paint,no carpet on the stairs to the rooms only underlay(there was a lift),room smelt stale,no handles on drawers only bare screws crack in the sink, broken tiles, shower didn't work, paint and dirt on the bathroom door,hole in the wall next to the door. When we complained about the shower and the fact that we had driven 3 hours to get there and wanted to freshen up the receptionist said 'well you don't smell ',we asked to be moved to another room but there wasn't anything available. WILL NEVER RETURN I do have a video of the cracked sink, broken tiles and bathroom door but will not upload"

Howfield Hotel
8.5 (53 reviews)

Howfield Hotel ★★★

📍 High St, Town

"There is no front desk, the hotel that opens the door by itself. The location is very hidden and not easy to find. See the white sign door at the door of the street. There is no elevator, it is not convenient to carry luggage up and down the stairs."

James' Place at Brynawel ★★★★

📍 Brynawel Guest House, Queen's Rd, Town

"Beautiful house Quirky attic studios that provided everything we needed. Lots of helpful info pre visit Lovely host James Ideal for exploring beacons etc Merthyr itself is like many post industrial towns ,tired and suffering from lack of investment in the centre . Some beautiful old buildings needing love. Out of town shopping complexes don’t help!"

Howfield Hotel ★★★
"Spotless clean and brand new facilities. Self check in was smooth. We were on the 3rd floor so a bit tricky if you have a big luggage. The room looked like the pics of even better. can reccomend."

James' Place at Brynawel ★★★★
"First of all the positives. 1.The room and bathroom were both very clean and elegantly decorated. 2. The house is in a nice area reasonably close to MT town centre. Unfortunately there were lots of negatives. 1. The main door wouldn't open and we spent about 10 minutes trying to get in before the door would eventually give in to a hefty shoulder. 2. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. Low, small with a mattress that was not conducive to a good night's sleep. 3. There was no wardrobe only a chest of drawers of which one drawer would not open. 4. The accommodation was supposed to be self catering but we never found any kitchen area and there was no information about how to find it in the instructions and we didn't feel comfortable wandering about the house trying to find it. 5. The directions said that it was a large white house as in the picture. It is now blue and was covered in scaffolding which covered the name of the house so it was difficult to know it was the correct house. 6. The shower was more a heavy mist. 7. The towels were never changed in the three nights we were there and given we were on a walking trip consequently were ponging somewhat by the end of our stay. I've stayed in much worse but it was in the bottom third of those we have. It wouldn't take much to raise this from a 2 star to a 4 star review but as another reviewer comments it appears the owner has rather lost the love for the place."

James' Place @ Pontmorlais ★★★★
"This place was amazing, its in the centre of merthyr town near all local amenities. We used it as a base to go to a local party as it was really good value compared to hotels But we will return for a longer stay The studio was warm and cozy with everything you could need. It was spotlessly clean. The weather was awful and we wished we had taken food with us as we had to go out for breakfast. But everything was available to make our own. The bed was comfortable and the shower was brilliant. I left my electric toothbrush at the property and they were really quick to answer my email and have it posted back to me. ."
