Great place to stay

I booked from Hotels.com, but when I arrived there, the host said the booking was not confirmed. The staff was so friendly and quickly got a room ready for me. But this was very worrying when arrived at a new place facing the risk of no accommodation! Regardless of unproficiency of Hotels.com, staying with Arms was pleasant. The room was cosy though quite small. The breakfast was utterly good. It was very close to Wales National Park. So highly recommend it.

Lovely little spot with clean and comfy rooms!

A lovely place with fantastic staff, a comfy room and really nice food! Our room was a nicely-sized double room, clean and comfortable. We had a little fridge which was a nice touch, and everything else we needed. Ran late checking out, but there were no issues, so we were very grateful for that. The only negative was that the shower head carried on running after we'd switched it off - not a huge deal, but a bit of a waste of water. Otherwise, a fantastic stay, and we would definitely stay again.

Not the Ritz but spotlessly clean and exactly as the pictures on the website showed. Everything that should have been there was as promised. But the jewel in the crown is definitely the staff. Very friendly and helpful! Add to that a lovely breakfast so you can’t say fairer than that.

Helpful and friendly

Very helpful, I knew I was going to be late checking in so contacted them before hand and therefore there wasn’t a problem. And I had to be off before breakfast was served so they made me a takeaway breakfast.

Lovely place to stay, friendly staff.

We had a lovely time here, could've done with somewhere to hang towels and shampoo and body wash available. As we have two vegetarians in our family, it would've been good to have a vegetarian option for breakfast.
