Hampton

I have worked in the hospitality industry for 45 years … never have I experienced anything as bad as this… dirty, smelling of damp in the cubicle called a bathroom, paper thin towels … the place should be closed down as a health risk. Bedside lamp melted, the headboard screw whiff and lumps of plaster out, broken electric sockets, the stairs a danger especially when you try to avoid dog poo, the hand rails are so dirty you don’t want to touch them, fire doors a hazard when trying to carry a bag… oh did I mention grubby ? I should have been paid danger money to stay there! Avoid at all costs!!!

I’ve stayed here each year for the past 7 years. Great value for money, no frills , basic hotel . Always clean and the rooms are warm .

Very good value for money Breakfast well cooked to order

Freezing cold and impossible to stay under these conditions. Hotel is not fit for purpose! Dated and unclean. Customer service was poor and no refund was issued. Checked out after only an hour!!

Room was really cold. No greeting.

Great overnight stop reasonably priced and lovely staff would stay again

Now I must make it clear the staff were very good. They were polite and helpful but working in very difficult conditions. The rooms were like prison cells, with paper thin walls. The single bed was very uncomfortable - in fact it was a choice of which bed spring to allow to stick in you next. The pillows and bed clothes were thin and old - as were the towels. The TV in my room had no signal, the light bulb was burnt out and I had to get a replacement. The kettle in my friend’s room was burnt out - but he was probably better off without it as the tea and coffee resembled warm mud. In fairness the shower did work well, as I was expecting it to just run cold. But it was warm and soothing. However the ‘Piece de resistance’ of the two night stay was the tendency of what seemed liked the entire town’s population to spend the night passing in and out the building, slamming and crashing the front door - immediately beneath our rooms. But this was nicely counter-pointed by the heavy traffic (mostly HGVs) passing by our antique sash windows throughout the night, as the rooms faced directly onto the High Street. Sleep? What sleep? This is why I suggest the venue is suitable only for murderers as, if you didn’t have an urge to kill someone before a stay at The Hampton, you certainly will after. And of course best of all we paid for the privilege of staying there. Finally, I’d suggest this hotel might encourage an undecided potential suicide to commit to their course of action.

A lovely little hotel that we have stayed in before. Very basic but has all our needs. Great place to stop as close to royalty welsh showground. Dog friendly and very close tobthe lake for our walks

No welcome, room nothing like the photos, rooms barely basic. Okay just to to arrive late sleep and leave early.

Very convenient for where I was heading clean room. Noisy from pub downstairs and people outside but went quiet at 11pm

1 night stay for the Royal Welsh show. Reasonably priced for the busiest week of the year in the area. Staff were very friendly. Breakfast could have been a bit more of generous portion also a bit disappointed there wasn’t a cot in the room even though we had booked stating it was with a 1 year old child!

No parking of any size, pub users take the two places. on street available. Room large enough, bathroom OK. shower fine but spray head would not stay in place. Room was clean and tidy but the 'shower towel' was far too small. hot water in the morning, 06-30, was a scarce commodity. I did not take an evening meal but the early breakfast was really superb, good quality and as much as you could eat, very nice. drinks in the bar at standard prices.

Faulty towers without the humour, unhygienic and disgusting. Mould in shower, dirty bedding and curtains, carpet with blood stains . No parking facility. Hole in wall above bed. Could here every noise in the property due to being so out dated.

I guess it would have met out expectations if it was cheaper, this place is very basic and was not worth th price. Small rooms and the tolet smelled bad. But we slept well although.

Really rough basic and shabby. Door handles coming of flaky paint worn out pillows. Noisy location. Only stay if you intend to get very drunk

Great stay, perfect base for motorcycling trip. Good place to keep bikes safe and dry in lockup. Rooms comfortable and very reasonable for price. Bar good selection of beers at good price. Staff all friendly and helpful, couldn't fault. Would stay again, thanks

Nice friendly hotel. Clean comfy room and nice breakfast

Room was clean and tidy but unfortunately up four flights of stairs which my wife had trouble with. We also had a dog whom I had to manoeuvre up and down. We ran out of water on the morning of our departure with both the hot and cold taps producing nothing. The restaurant was closed which wasn't mentioned when we booked so we had to find an alternative for the evening. I would describe the hotel as a little bit run down. Adequate is the best way I can describe the experience.

it was central for most thing in central Wales

Very good accomodation but not over the top.
