We have stayed at the Rhydspence many times over many years and sadly will never return during the tenancy of the current owner. Whilst the eccentricities of the previous one were at times wearing, the hotel, service, and food oozed charm and elegance. The current owner does not have any previous experience in hospitality and it shows. His wife a... More

Beautiful location. I took my girlfriend for a one night stay for her 21st birthday, and i could not fault it. Brilliant service, paul and Gerry were just so lovely and immediately made us feel very comfortable. The food was gorgeous and every room was so warming and cosy. The big open fire truly lets you put all your worries... More

Food, accommodation, prices and welcome all top notch. The proprietor is friendly to a fault. A chat with him over an excellent cask ale by a roaring open fire revealed the reason he has to wear comfie shoes occasionally, and indeed elucidated much more from this decidedly amiable chap, who goes out of his way to make his guests feel...

My family and I have been using the Rhydspence for many years. The current proprietors - Paul and Gerry have worked very hard to make the place very comfortable and welcoming. Every meal I have eaten there has been great and the open fire is just fantastic. The staff who work there are very polite and can't do enough for... More

This is the first time i've visited the inn. Lovely warm welcome by all the staff. Gorgeous roaring fire which you could sit in front of and spend many an hour drinking your favourite tipple! Lovely food with excellent service..I would highly recommend this inn and will visit again next time we're passing.

I use the Rhydspence Inn regularly and I simply don’t recognise the ‘very disappointing’ review as referring to my local. Paul and Geraldine have worked their socks off since October trying to make this place feel like home from home. And they have succeeded. Pay no attention to that poor review – try it for yourself and see if you... More

Paul & Gerry are fantastic hosts. We stayed for two nights and had the family join us for Christmas Day lunch. The food and atmosphere were fabulous. How they do it, in view of the fact that neither are in the best of health, is beyond us. Well done!!! We look forward to many more stays in this beautiful Inn,... More

We stayed at The Rhydspence Inn last weekend, a treat booked by the family. We don't usually review, but when we went on to book for another break later in the year, we saw a negative review. Our experience was somewhat different. We had a lovely room with views across the Golden Valley to the Black Mountains. It's a 700... More

The new owners would benefit from a crash course in improving their communication skills, customer service, and overall style of management. Trying to 'wing' it on the back of the hotel's previous good reputation is a disaster waiting to happen, as we discovered to our cost! Shame, because it is a beautiful old building; but relying on 'olde worlde charm'... More

We had a lovely weekend at the Rhydspence Inn, a real olde worlde building with all modern home comforts, super food and a big log fire. The website gives the details of its history, and the landlord will happily give you a special tour. Set in beautiful surroundings close to the hills. Recommended.
