Jo and Paul have got it right. From the lovely friendly welcome we got when we arrived to the beautiful spacious room along with an amazing tea and coffee making tray. The Cadbury’s hot chocolate cups were a lovely addition. They gave us recommendations for dinner. Went to Amore an Italian restaurant which was amazing. And then the breakfast. Jo said we wouldn’t leave hungry and we certainly didn’t. What a cooked breakfast it was. Thank you once again for a lovely stay in Aberdare. X

The staff were amazing, I say staff it was one lady with a bad knee doing everything on her own. She was polite, efficient and friendly a credit to

Stayed in Room4, which was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was delicious. Perfect location if staying in Brecon National Park.

Aberdare seems a pleasant enough Welsh town with a good number of pubs and eateries and good access to surrounding towns, countryside and Cardiff. Our stay was largely about visiting family and so we did not make intensive use of the available entertainment.

National Trust Big Pit and getting to go down disused coal mine - staff were fabulous, really interesting for all ages and worth a visit. Free
Tower Zip World - hubby and son had a fab 1-1.5 hours on zip line - Approx £50 each. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Bike Park Wales - £47.00 each without equipment hire they do full hire package too - well worth the visit, staff were friendly. Exhausting but fulfilling day spent going down mountain - you learn how unfit you are though as it is physically challenging.
Barry Island - Home of Gavin and Stacey - paid parking but sea front is clean and well served - we went in April so rides etc only open at weekends but beach is clean and sandy. G/F fish and chips from Boofy’s on the sea front - fab ouuu lusss.
Dunraven Pub - Treherbert - fab food and fab service. Catered for my Coeliac hubby which was a true bonus.
Four Waterfalls Walk - amazing views and worth a visit but requires a decent amount of fitness, walk is 7.8 Kms and is tough going at times on uneven surfaces, gravel rocks, tree roots and slippy surfaces - dogs allowed but our Scottish terrier was k******ed by the time we got back, her legs were stumpier than usual. Parking around £5.00

I was born in Aberdare and it was good to visit after many years. As with many valleys towns it looks sad compared to what it used to but still has many things to attract visitors including an excellent market.
It is an ideal position for the Dare Valley Country Park as well as the Brecon Beacons. The town park - just north of the town centre - is a brilliant place where motorcycle racing occurs annually.
If you stay there, try to do the Waterfalls Walk around Ystradfellte and Penderyn.

Very easy walk into town, which is well serviced by a broad range of local shops along with a nearby Tesco superstore with petrol station. Needed an optician (forgot to pack spare contact lenses( and a choice of three within 5 mins walk.

Abedare is ideally suited for exploring.
Abedare is ideally suited for exploring. The local walks are wonderful but also close to everywhere else you might like to explore. Town has everything you might need whilst you are away. Supermarkets, pubs, shops etc.

Dare Park nearby has good walks and Lakes , also nice cafe and food, drive up into the hills for great views and also more walks, try Welsh Rarebit on Lava bread, Abedare has lots of take away food shops, however a lot dont take card, there are cash machines nearby, watch out for speed cameras and also 20MPH restricted zones, Asda food store nearby, before you book hotel , call the reception and make sure it has good wifi signal in the room,
The cottage is located a few minutes drive from the very center of Aberdare, and close to Tesco for shopping. The fireplace is easy to pop on, and heats up the living room nicely. Street parking was always convenient with space just in front of the door. We were very content staying there, and if ever in Aberdare again, wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
A beautiful house, lovingly decorated, very comfortable and welcoming. We had a lovely room and very comfortable bed - the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in! Jo, our very welcoming host, cooked an excellent breakfast - couldn't eat much the rest of the day! We would definitely stay there again and would thoroughly recommend.
Location was perfect with a shop down the road but being on the outskirts of aberdare and being high enough that you can see the towns lights in the evening come to life. Cosy cottage that can occupy more people than we needed and Debbie was a friendly abd gracious host.
Check in was excellent, really helpful, room was amazing and the bed was comfy and shower was powerful. Breakfast was really good and good choices. The staff were all excellent and friendly. Really recommend the Marquis Hotel. Keep up the great work!!
it’s only 20 minutes from Pen y Fan and easy access to Aberdare park which was great for the dog as there is no suitable outside space at the accommodation.
Clean, modern decor with lots of extras already provided.
This was our second time staying at The Marquis. Super cozy, great food and bar, nice staff! Walking distance from the train station, into the lovely town of Aberdare and of course to Jacs!
very secluded place with a great adventure during drive from main street to hotel... beautiful area with river running next to location. Sue is a great host and a very friendly lady.
Lovely cottage. Beautifully furnished. A proper warm Welsh welcome . A real home from home. Great location . Ideal for train travel to Cardiff. Easy to walk into Aberdare itself.
In an ideal situation and the lady was lovely! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in this area. The Italian restaurant close by in Aberdare was great too
The best hotel I've been in, really lovely staff, kind and caring would definitely recommend to anyone. Has a nice view and a little river next to it for a relaxing time
Staying at Dare Valley Hotel was an unexpected pleasure, accommodation was more than adequate and the location and cafe was splendid. We intend to stay there again
