Interesting building but no atmosphere of welcome. Tired rooms my bedroom / bathroom smelt of drains. bathroom whilst very nice to look at smelled moldy and took 20 mins to get any amount of hot water as it trickled out. Bedroom was large but carpet worn. Very long walk to room in strange basement area. Did not feel very safe. Bed was lumpy. Restaurant pricey and average. Grounds and views are beautiful but hotel lacks any warmth. Ruthin lovely hill town worth visiting

Very enjoyable
My boyfriend and I had a lovely 3 night stay at this wonderful hotel. Staff were very pleasent and acomdating and catered for our pet dog. Wonderful surroundings and civer lots of history. Had a lovely old feel and very relaxed attitude and not stuck up. Not the most modern but you can get that anywhere. Brilliant architecture. Would visit again.
