Hotel The Baskerville Arms (Hay-on-Wye, United Kingdom)

Guests love the communal areas at the Baskerville Arms. Why not sample one of the local real ales in front of the roaring fire whilst you wait for your food - guests reported it really is a home away from home.

The location of this pub and bed and breakfast is perfect for those wanting to visit the Brecon Beacons. Set near Hay-on-Wye, there are plenty of walks in the area, as well as cafes, bookshops and museums to browse.

Staff at the Baskerville Arms are said to be amongst the friendliest around. It's clear that this is a family business - all staff are welcoming, chatty and have a great knowledge of the local area. You are guaranteed the personal touch if you choose to stay here.

Guests report that some rooms do not have a proper shower, just a shower hose connected to the taps in the bathtub. For shorter stays this shouldn't be an issue however if guests would prefer a shower they are encouraged to request this upon booking.

Some guests feel that rooms are a little dated and could do with renovation. That said, the Baskerville Arms do not claim to be a modern hotel - it's a traditional, 18th century inn. Most guests feel that renovations may take away some of the character of this beautiful bed and breakfast.

A handful of guests feel that more should be included in the way of breakfast. Currently, guests have to pay extra for items such as eggs - guests feel that as this accommodation is not cheap, hot items should be included.
