"Close to the train station and centre, within 5 minute walk. Booked a room for the night for a concert at the Utilita Arena, it’s an old building so don’t expect the Ritz. Breakfast was lovely. Good price hotel in a fantastic location"

The people are fab, but Cwmbran seems to just be a large shopping centre, Wetherspoons & supermarkets - no High Street, unless I missed it...

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

We didn't see much of Cwmbrân and what we did see was okay. However the hotel is actually on the edge of Cwmbrân in Llantarnam, which seemed to be more attractive. Also the location is great for getting to and from other places.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Lovely place to visit.
