"I have stayed at this hotel several times over the years and it has always been my go-to choice for food and accommodation in Newtown. The restaurant meals and breakfast have consistently been amazing, and the staff has always been friendly and lovely. However, I regret to say that I will never stay or eat here again. The staff were abrupt and unwelcoming, and our room at the front of the hotel, opposite a noisy nightclub, was substandard and reminiscent of the 1970s. The furniture was mismatched and basic, and the room felt very cramped. The TV only had Japanese channels, and there was no terrestrial TV, only iPlayer. Despite the cleanliness of the room, the overall experience was disappointing. There was no food available at the hotel pub, which seemed odd, but after the terrible breakfast the next day, it was probably for the best. The breakfast was appalling - there were no glasses, butter, fruit juices, or cutlery without requesting them, and the waitress was disinterested and unapologetic. The set breakfast served on a plate could not be altered in any way, and the quality of the food was poor. We ended up leaving the hotel to find something else to eat in town. The breakfast room had a negative atmosphere, likely influenced by the waitress, and overall, it was a disappointing experience compared to previous visits. It's a shame, as the hotel and pub had been lovely on our previous stays."
