Fabulous room and excellent breakfast. We can’t recommend this hotel enough. It is beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. Such a quirky old building has been updated to a very high standard whilst still retaining the charm of the original beams and uneven floors. The lit stove in the reception gave a warm welcome each time we entered. The staff were really lovely, friendly and helpful. A very relaxed stay, I hope we will be able to visit again.

Comfy bed, nice staff, fire, jolly nice breakfast. Bedroom a little cold, but hot waterbottles helped.

The Three Cocks Hotel is a truly special place — an independent, family-run gem where you can feel the passion and care in everything they do. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the stunning interiors to the welcoming atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. The downstairs area is beautifully designed — perfect for unwinding by the fire with a drink after a day exploring. The receptionist was excellent: warm, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. Breakfast was outstanding, with quality ingredients and generous portions. The location couldn’t be better — close to both Brecon and Hay-on-Wye, making it ideal for exploring the area. Our room was immaculate, with a very comfortable bed and a lovely, well-designed bathroom. It’s clear that every aspect of this hotel has been created with care and attention to detail. A wonderful stay from start to finish — I can’t recommend The Three Cocks Hotel highly enough.

Quaint rooms, Friendly staff, lovely breakfast.

Good points…Loved the staff and had excellent communication throughout the stay. The well fitted bathroom was spotless and the shower was great. You have to pre-order breakfast the night before but it is hot and well cooked. The lady serving breakfast was excellent. Nice areas to sit downstairs and chat. The age of the building means it is quirky and interesting. It has been renovated very sympathetically. Bad points…The bedroom was very small and the two single beds were placed end to end so felt like a school trip. No wardrobe in the room just some pegs over a shelf and I struggled to use the mirror which was propped up on the desk. No room at all to put our cases. There are no staff in the hotel if you arrive after they leave in the early evening so you have to self check-in. Instructions to locate your key and room are comprehensive but could put people off.

Problem with toilet flush, maybe not a major concern for most people but a bit of a problem for me following cancer surgery. However they gave us free breakfast to make amends so guess these things happen

Whole place was enchanting beautiful and so welcoming 5 star

A very nice place to stay would highly recommend and plan to return on our next trip to wales.

The property is so beautifully decorated, has a great atmosphere and outstanding staff. We felt recharged after our stay there and highly recommend The Three Cocks

Great service and lovely room

Beautifully and thoughtfully restored with a wonderful made-to-order breakfast that goes beyond the usual.

It is a lovely place, quite quirky but that work is in is favour. We had to self check in because the reception was closed but that wasn’t an issue as there were clear instructions including what we wanted for breakfast. The restaurant was closed for refurbishment I think but the Old Barn is just across the road and serving good food for a reasonable price so no issues. Breakfast was nice too. Overall I would recommend. I would imagine it will be fantastic in the summer when the bat and restaurant is open and you can sit in the garden.

Really lovely old building nicely decorated, would have liked to have a gin and tonic by the fire in the evening but there was no bar when we stayed, can't wait to come back!

What an amazing hotel! Stumbled upon it by accident and I’m so glad I did, I slept so peacefully in the magnificent bed. The whole place has been decorated beautifully and maintained the character of the building!

Wonderful stay whilst we explored Hay on Wye for a few days which was a short drive away. Very comfortable and clean and lovely cooked breakfast although not much continental selection. Had an open fire inside the entrance where you could sit and relax. We managed to lock ourselves out of our room leaving the key inside and the property were contacted easily and they gave us a spare key to get back in. We would stay again. Only tip for staying is to book restaurants nearby and research in advance as we struggled on the Sunday to find somewhere for an evening meal lots of local places stop serving Sunday lunch at around 3-4pm. There is also a lovely garden centre with a restaurant a short distance from here.

We had an excellent stay at the Three Cocks Hotel. The hotel is very well furnished, exceptionally clean, super comfortable, and cosy. Jessica and the team were very helpful and accommodating - the breakfast was lovely. Location-wise it was perfect to get into Hay-on-Wye by car and taxi (but do book ahead of time).

Fantastic hotel, really atmospheric and cosy, we sat up late in the panelled lounge chatting, perfect venue for friends to catch up. Breakfast was cooked to order and really delicious.

Lovely stay, very cosy. Great breakfast.

Nice historic hotel. Very clean. Great breakfast

We had an excellent stay at the Three Cocks Inn. Slight communication issue before and at check in but room was warm, clean and comfy. Very hospitable hosts in the morning, would stay again.
