Despite acknowledging their own shortcomings in service, the hotel did not provide the best experience. However, they did make up for it by adjusting the price accordingly. The service received a 2 out of 5 rating, while the location scored a 5.

While there are limited vegan choices on the restaurant menu, they rotate seasonally and are consistently tasty. The chef is willing to accommodate dietary needs. The bar menu consistently offers staple vegan options such as burgers and curries.

While the restaurant menu only offers a few vegan choices, they are rotated seasonally and consistently tasty. The chef is accommodating and willing to make changes if needed. The bar menu usually includes standard vegan options such as burgers and curries. View menu

Come on Google. We visited for a meal, not a stay. Split the survey. Food drinks: Sunday lunch. I enjoyed it greatly. Created with care and flair. My stepson, one of our group, (a chef) would have done it differently, of course! He, more or less, approved. The service was performed so well. No hesitation in returning.

Nice location. Nice enough hotel, fairly budget. Rooms horrendous and overpriced. Bed was uncomfortable. Bright lights from outside shining into room all night. Wedding party music blaring. Bathroom probably up there with worst I've stayed in. £170 is a strong price for that experience. Breakfast over the road was nice. Wouldn't stay again. Cowbridge itself is a nice pleasant place to visit. Rooms: 1

"I raved about this place in my last review but since then it appears to have changed. Firstly, I cant remember the chairs being so uncomfortable that they had 'scatter ' cushions for you to use if you needed to. Having had back surgery, they made it even worse for me, so did without them in the most uncomfortable chair ever. Now, to the main part of the review. The lovely cakes that I had raved about had disappeared to be replaced by a sorry looking load of bog standard cake. The poor girl who served us was nervous as it was her first day, we ordered pecan pie which came with cream, we asked if its pouring or thick, she had to ask, it was pouring so we asked if we could have ice cream instead, she had to ask. Anyway, we finally ordered our cake and coffee. When she brought the coffee, she spilled half of mine in the saucer and then asked if I wanted a different saucer....duh! she took the offending saucer and the spoon brought a saucer back, no extra serviette to wipe the bottom of the cup and NO SPOON! We were then served the cake and ice cream, which to be fair, was nice, until, halfway through I saw a hair on my friends plate, (she was not wearing her glasses). We knew instantly that it was not either of ours, I have shoulder length hair and her hair was in a bun! We called the poor young lady over and pointed it out, she asked if my friend wanted to change it...duh! Of course she did, she brought another and thankfully my friend shared it with me! The coffee was (flat white) was nice but after that catalogue of events I wont be going back. They do offer a range of snacks/lunches and people did seem to be enjoying them."
