After reading reviews that say this accommodation is excellent, we booked for two nights with friends. By the end of our stay we were bitterly disappointed. Shame, we had hoped for so much more. It looks like a family run business with different generations around the premises. Evening bar staff on duty were pleasant. We want to say that the buffet dinner was very good (it did cost £10 more, each, than we expected). However, rooms and breakfast were poor. There aren’t enough characters here to give full details but here is a summary. Toilet seat fell off toilet, 3 times. Reported and loosely replaced. Toilet flush button broken. Mold on bathroom window and tiles. Reported and wiped down. Rotten blind, ripped and was replaced Cracked sink. At breakfast we asked for more tea and pots were checked to see if empty. Poor. Breakfast is minimal, any extra charged at 50p per item. Language was often a problem when reporting issues. On checking out, reception was unmanned, we had locate a member of kitchen staff. Manager unavailable in person at checkout, he told us, on a phone, to email him. Tax added to final bill, no one available to explain what this was for. Overall, this is not a great place to stay. Restaurant might be fine but B&B needs total refit, rethink, training. After high expectations we won’t be staying again.

Helpful staff, comfortable bed and good breakfast. Very easy to find and parking is ample. The decor made me feel like i had stepped into another decade of another country. I admire people and places that dont try to be modern just for the sake of it when everything they already have works fine, so i quite enjoyed looking at the pictures, baskets and other items on display.

Lovely place very peaceful and all as described

The room was lovely very quite we had a good nights sleep. The staff were very nice and accommodating…. lovely breakfast … our only problem was the location for us as we needed taxis to go out drinking & it was very difficult the staff gave us some telephone numbers but all busy… for that reason only next time we go to Chepstow we might have to stay nearest to the town centre 😊

Good Indian / Nepalese food in the restaurant. Comfortable bed with clean sheets. Bathroom very tired. Black mould around bathtub and taps. Toilet not working correctly. No hot water for a bath one evening. Windows of room had not been cleaned for ages. Front door to property was locked at night. I could not unlock the door in the morning to get out to my car. Surely that is a fire risk. How do you get out in an emergency? I kept thinking of the 60s song "We Gotta Get Out of this Place" by Eric Burden and the Animals!

Outstanding seemingly unbeatable value for a single or double room in the area, on-site restaurant very popular and great dining option if you don't fancy going out, complimentary breakfast was a lovely addition. Stern but fair and attentive customer service, a grubby shower tray and loose/ limp towel rail but these are minor issues I can get over and expected at this price level. Thank you Woolaston Inn.
