    All ok - no complaints at all!

    A convenient spot to stay after a day in the hills and some time in Hay on Wye. Good value with a really nice dinner in the restaurant there. Breakfast was great too. The food and decor had some nice reminders of a trip to Nepal in the past.

    My partner said the walls might be a little thin as they could occasionally hear other occupants talking. This did not disturb our night, however

    I loved the breakfast and the beds were really comfy

    The 'New Gurkha is well run, comfortable and welcoming as well as being incredible value.

    The Continental breakfast , although plentiful, is really not exciting fare. It is what the Inn can source locally, and therefore a long way from being Continental. Dare I say that instant coffee at breakfast is the pits for me?

    The New Gurkha is close to my idea of what a good country Inn should be. Small, only 4 bedrooms, and well used, it nevertheless has everything a traveller would want. The Inn is spotlessly clean, yet remains warm and welcoming. The evening menu is a treat for anyone who appreciates the delicate flavours of Nepalese dishes, especially the fish curry.

    The owners of this Inn are simply lovely people, running a great business. The rooms were basic, but very clean with a nice continental breakfast with the addition of hot boiled eggs, which was nice on a cold morning. We were the only guests at the time and the owner ensured we had two rooms with the ensuite attached, which was great for our family. Even if you are unable to stay at this Inn, we highly recommend you book for dinner! The food was absolutely incredible! Fresh and delicious!

    Rooms are also very noisy with downstairs creaking and slamming plus neighbours watching tv. It is nice though that the separate bathroom is locked to the room that doesn’t have a bathroom, but it is annoying having to do that walk. Bed covers very comfy and warm, beds themselves a little lumpy and creaky. Also the menu is lacking in vegetarian options (including breakfast cheese separate from ham please!!)

    Appreciated being shown to the room.

    This is an old building with creaky floorboards and the doors were not tight fitting. This did mean there was some noise from other guests when they moved up and down corridor which woke me up

    The staff and food were great. Room very comfortable and of a good size.

    Not practical to have bathroom at end of corridor. A proper locker would be welcome rather than a padlock noisy at night to unlock and relock each time.

    Quiet location, perfect for our stay. Very clean room. Friendly and welcoming staff. Car park in front of hotel. Excellent restaurant on spot.

    Having an alternative menu although the food we have was delicious. We just fancied a change on The second night. A choice of puddings would have been great.
