I had a lovely New Year's Eve celebration with friends at the hotel. The atmosphere was fantastic, the food was delicious, and the staff were incredibly attentive. However, my experience was marred by a few maintenance issues in the room and the dining options lacked variety. Overall, I would definitely consider staying again for a special occasion.

My experience at the spa was quite mixed. The treatments were enjoyable and offered good value, but the overall cleanliness of the facilities left much to be desired. The dining was a highlight with delicious food, but the service during dinner was frustratingly slow at times. While the location is peaceful and perfect for relaxation, there are several areas where improvements are necessary to elevate the experience.

I had a lovely stay at Nant Ddu, where I enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and friendly staff. The spa treatments were excellent, providing a much-needed relaxation after a long drive. However, I found parts of the hotel needing a freshen-up, particularly the spa facilities, which detracted from the overall experience. The food was fantastic, but I do feel there are better spa options nearby that might offer a more polished experience.
