Accommodation of a reasonable quality is on the short side in Builth Wells but look no further than The Greyhound if you want a comfortable, clean friendly place to stay close to the Brecon Beacons. Ideal for walkers and fishermen alike. Rooms are being refurbished and are clean. Meals are substantial and the bar serves a good range of beers.... More

I stayed here after a family dinner in January 2013. The food was good, served fairly quickly (we were a 20+ group) although we'd ordered in advance. Service was good. The room we ate in lacked atmosphere due to the lighting/decoration but was private and comfortable. We paid £65 for a double room B&B. I felt this was expensive for... More

Staying in a remarkable B&B, The Smithfield Farm B&B (highly recommended), we needed to eat. As it turns out its not as easy as it sounds in Builth Wells, parking is a real headache and the one way system, whilst probably necessary in this small town, doesn't help vistors negotiate an apparant dearth of eating establishments. However The Greyhound proved... More

We popped in on our way home. We'd been in the bar in March 2012 and some of our friends had eaten and the food looked amazing. We weren't disappointed, both the service and food was excellent. We all had a main course and some had a sweet but the starters looked really appealing and we can't wait to go... More

Went to have a meal last night at the Greyhound hotel. Place was nearly empty, just one other couple. Unfortunately when it's quiet there's no atmosphere. Had a nice meal there, and reasonable prices too.

Four of us 'lads' (middle aged) booked this hotel for a 3 day cycling break. Warm welcome and food even though the kitchen was officially closed. Eat evening meal here each evening, food was great with attentive staff. One of our party had to go back to London early Sunday evening and Ali (Landlady) again opened the kitchen 'out of... More

£65 for the pair of us for one night got us a good clean room with free, secure parking and a good quality fry up in the morning with toast and cereals if you want. The room isn't going to win any design awards and the ceiling above the window in the bathroom was a bit tatty but the rest... More
