YHA Defynnog hotels

"What a fantastic hotel - my only moan was that it was very dark in the breakfast dog friendly area. We will definitely be back, Wilson (cocker spaniel) had a wonderful stay too, spoilt by all his treats, toys and bedding options ♥️"

"The hotel exceeded our expectations, we didn't expect 4-5 star service from the budget hotel with such low price, and we read through the previous reviews, so we really expected an old traditional place rather than modern network hotels. However it was better than in the reviews. The hosts are very kind and helpful, the breakfasts and dinners were excellent. It's incredible how 1 woman can cook so many delicious meals for guests. The owners are such hardworking people! The room was very clean. So actually for this low price we got a clean room, hot water, cosy bed, delicious British breakfast. The only drawback was the internet speed, it was very slow, but we stopped there for the hiking and exploring nature, so low internet speed could be a part of the whole plan to get rest of city civilisation. It was a bit chilly in the room but we asked the owner and he immediately brought us an additional heater, we didn't turn it on though because it wasn't that bad. "

"Fantastic weekend break, comfortable in beautiful surroundings. Ideal location for visiting Hay on Wye & Brecon"
