The hotel was amazing from start to finish, answered all my questions on line promptly check in was great we arrived early and it wasn't a problem room was spotless requested a fan which was in the room when we arrived.

Give it a try

Old property so be prepared for squeaking floors and other noises, well worth a stay. Riverside walks and lots of pubs. Man of Ross worth a visit.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were excellent. The rump stakes we had at dinner were, i think, the best I've had in many years. Our room was really quirky in as much as nothing was level except the bed. That might not be to everyone's liking but I thought it was great. Typical old building character right in heart of Ross on Wye.
