The hotel is centrally located in Llangollen and has a lovely garden attached which overlooks the river. I paid £50 for a single room which had three single beds in it. Usually that would mean the room was very cramped but the room was huge. This did lead to the room becoming quite cold because there was only a small... More

A group of 10 of us stayed here for a stag do, purely for it's location and proximity to the outdoor activities on offer (white water kayak, rock climbing and abseiling). It wasn't disgustingly un-clean, and the breakfast was well above average, but the rooms were very small, with a tiny closet for a toilet and shower. The room's were... More

I was one of a group of 13 walkers who stayed at the Hand Hotel and for us it was ideally located as a base for walking the Berwyns and one of the most scenic sections of Offa's Dyke. We found the staff to be universally helpful, polite and friendly. The rooms were all en-suite and varied from quite small... More

We just stayed here last week, we were a group of 45 people. The students loved their rooms and had a great time climbing the mountain nearby. There was also free wifi that actually worked which was a plus! Our room in particular was very small and the sheets on my bed were stained. The room was freezing and I... More

My wife and I stay at this hotel every two years attending a conference. The meals are of excellent quality and the staff are friendly. The rooms are average but adequate. The location, in the centre of Llangollen, is convenient while being off the main road. For the general area it's also useful. The hotel is historic and reputedly has... More

A group of 20 walkers stayed for 4 nights. Hotel staff were friendly and very helpfull. Having a gathering of the group in the large sitting room with a roaring wood fire and snow still hanging on stubornly outside- the banter and frequent outbreaks of mass laughter may have been off-putting to other guests but we had a wonderful time!...

I stayed at the Hand Hotel for just one night on the second of April. My single room was warm comfortable and very clean. The breakfast was great, both plate and food were hot .
