Booked this for a weekend away with my partner to find the waterfalls. Turned up, the staff were SO friendly, the locals in the bar equally as friendly. Got to our room quite quickly, it was so clean, very cosy and very comfy! Breakfast in the morning was like a mini continental, food was lovely, very attentive staff checking what you want to eat. I would highly recommend this B&B it was so welcoming, so friendly, clean, if I was going to go back to that area I would definitely stay again!

Nice and simple - bed and bathroom + a friendly breakfast. It is a perfect stay if you just want a place to rest your head in a quiet place and get fed first thing in the morning. Staff are all happy and chipper!
remember to take your shower gel & soap, there didn't appear to be any in our room. The lighting is very white / bright, and that is quite harsh when you are trying to wind down in the evening. Forget using their TV, very small.

We stayed here as a stop-off to break up a journey. We were warmly welcomed. Our room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. The breakfast was freshly cooked to order and was absolutely excellent.
The only thing that could have been better was that our bathroom was a bit on the chilly side, especially in the morning when the heating didn't come on until 0745, by which time we were already up as breakfast was served between 8 and 9. It had been a particularly cold night so maybe this is not normally an issue.

The location is a good one right near the centre of town.
We had trouble finding the hotel. The address didn't match the one we had. After trying a few roads near to the address we had and not being able to find it we stopped at another hotel where a few young ones were chatting out the front. One of them was very friendly and told us exactly how to find The Lord Nelson and we were able to drive straight there with his instructions.

Friendly, attentive and really helpful staff. Really clean and comfortable room. We had a really great meal in the evening, which was exceptionally good value. Breakfast was also excellent. Very impressed overall.
Some loud music coming from the houses next door in the evening but didn't go on too late so was ok. Found the water temperature in the shower to be quite cool despite turning it up to the maximum.

Breakfast was freshly cooked at a time to suit you and was beautiful. The staff were really friendly and polite. The room was clean and comfortable and you could access the accommodation either through the bar when it was open or through an external door at other times which was very convenient. Even though the room was above the bar it was super quiet.

Good breakfast, and the hosts kindly provided the cooked vegetarian breakfast I had requested. The atmosphere in the pub was cheery and lively on arrival as locals were watching the Wales v Scotland rugby. Everyone, staff and patrons, were friendly and warm. The room and bathroom were absolutely lovely -- modern, clean, spacious enough, and so well insulated we couldn't hear anything from the pub downstairs. We were only stopping over between Brecon and Cardiff so we were thrilled to have stumbled upon the Lord Nelson where we got a great room, breakfast and evening meals at super prices. Highly recommended!
This was perfect for us as a stopover, but it's in a quiet neighbourhood with no entertainment locally in the evening if that's what you're looking for.

Lovely hosts, great cooked breakfast, comfortable bed, everything clean. Has a homey feeling to it. All in all very good value for money.
Surrounding village not very inspiring, but close to Brecon Beacons NP when you have a car.

Room 4 is a family room with 3 single beds. Excellent value for money, the room was minimalist and spotlessly clean. White crisp sheets, fluffy white bath towels, super pillow and great shower. Breakfast was excellent too. Staff friendly and welcoming. We stayed for 1 night whilst visiting the area. If you get a chance drive to the top towards Farm Road and continue for a scenic route, the views are amazing.
Nothing. Note: Hand soap is provided but not shower gel so remember to take your own.

Being a female travelling alone, I was very nervous. However, I needn't have worried. The guys were very friendly and welcoming. I even sat downstairs and had a drink and a chat. Breakfast was amazing. the landlady was lovely. She even made me a bacon butty to take out
Only tiny niggle, no mirror in the bedroom.
