Comfortable bed and good room soundproofing from the road

No instructions provided ahead of time where to park, this would be useful for any first time visitors. We arrived shortly after 6pm to check in and the building was locked up with the lights off for the evening. Breakfast served only until 8.45am with check out by 10am at a weekend. We personally felt this was too early compared to most average check outs to be at least 11am nowadays. Whilst we would have liked to sample breakfast, the time was just too much of an early start for us on our holiday.

Very comfortable bed and great pillows! Helpful friendly owners. Fantastic sound proof windows - on the main street but no traffic noise! Personalised breakfast. Historic building with beautiful woodwork. Well loved premises with tasteful decoration and furnishings.

Builth wells is looking tired now, but is still a pleasant mid Wales stop. The Owls was a delightful find.

Location was perfect for accessing a restaurant on the evening for something to eat. Near to the job which was helpful too. Comfortable rooms.

It's not a case of didn't like, on the evening we were asked to request certain items for breakfasr the next morning, however, some items that were requested were missing from the breakfast. This was fine though, we didn't mind, it may bother others more.

The Hosts Ian & Jo were very friendly,went out of there way to ensure everything was to our satisfaction.They knew the area so were able to help with places to visit and directions on how to get there.They also advised on places to eat in the evening. The breakfast was excellent and deserves a special mention.

It’s an old quirky property but well maintained and clean. My bed was on a bit of a slope so I did put the pillow the opposite end and slept well. Location is great, in middle of town with plenty of pubs and restaurants about but couldn’t hear any outside noise from our room which was on the front of property. Ample safe parking.

Hosts, Ian and Jo were welcoming, helpful and served an excellent breakfast. The room was clean, comfortable and had tea/coffee. I was travelling by bike and they offered secure bike storage in a locked shed. The hotel is directly on Nation Cycle Route #8 (goes past the front door) so a great option on a trip through Wales. The hotel is within a minutes walk of pub and restaurant options. Recommended.

Nice friendly welcome to a clean and very homely accommodation Assessable from the main door fronting the high street and also the convenient rear car park.

Nothing not to like! There are a few steps to accomplish which maybe a concern, however they are a shallow rise and fairly easy with plenty of handrails nearby.

Centrally located in the charming town of Builth Wells, this property was quiet and peaceful. The bed was very comfortable, the room was small, but contained everything you’d need. The hosts were friendly, without being pushy. Breakfast (pre-ordered the previous night) was very nice.

The Owls is a classic guesthouse right in the centre of Builth Wells. The friendly hosts were very welcoming and locked our touring bicycles in their backyard shed. Our bed was comfy, the hot water good, the wifi OK, and the included full Welsh Breakfast was excellent. We'd stay here again.

It was all good.

Location is good, bedroom was clean and compact. Ideal for one, but a bit small for 2. Breakfast was good, and could have ordered extra if I wanted more. Hosts were very friendly.

Only a minor point is that with the small shower, a shelf for shampoo / soap would be a useful addition as bending down in the confined space was a bit difficult with a stiff back.
