ザ ハンド ホテル(The Hand Hotel)

Lovely little hotel overlooking the river in the centre of Llangollen. Staff are very welcoming and the rooms are good with comfortable beds. The en-suite bathroom was quite small though and in need of updating but everywhere was clean. The only real issue was the draughty windows that didn’t close properly and the room was quite cold but an extra electric radiator was in our room and worked well at warming us up. Breakfast was lovely with a great choice of good quality food. Would definitely return.

Our bedroom was small and very dated. We thought it felt shoehorned in, but it was very clean. The bar area was lovely. Breakfast was excellent although the tea was cold. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.

Great breakfast. We booked this hotel as there was a restaurant and as it was a Monday night we were certain of getting a meal. Unfortunately the kitchen was closed and we were reduced to a Coop sandwich. They had our email so could have informed us in advance so we could have made alternative arrangements. Shame as otherwise very good

Very traditional hotel - not spoilt by big modern ‘improvements’. Staff efficient and friendly. Fantastic location for the view and local facilities which were exceptionally good.

Good historic hotel. Lots of quirky features. Evening meal and breakfast very tasty. Nice views of the river Dee.

The Hand is an interesting old building in a lovely setting in the town by the river.Breakfast was good, plentiful with a good selection of hot and cold options.The staff were helpful and courteous.The family room we booked for 1 night was clean and had all the basics but was definitely in need of updating. We would have appreciated a pack of biscuits to accompany the generous supply of drinks. The bathroom would benefit from modernising.A shower over the bath with a curtain feels a little basic these days. We found our room overlooking the courtyard at the back was noisy in the morning when cleaning began at about 5am so our sleep was quite disturbed.Maybe rooms at the front or church side would be better. All things considered the Hand is a bit overpriced but is ok for an overnight stay and choose a room at the quiet side.

Lovely hotel in an excellent location. Our room overlooked the River Dee so was a quiet room. There is a lovely beer garden overlooking the river which we were able to make use of. The staff were friendly and helpful. We also had 2 good evening meals at the hotel. The food was excellent but the service was slow on the Friday evening.

This is a 17th century hotel so obviously it’s very old but this adds to its charm. The staff were very polite and helpful and the food was good and plenty of it.

Room was comfortable although perhaps looking a little tired and unloved. Hotel was very convenient with excellent parking facilities. Breakfast was very good and staff were on the whole very helpful. The major feature for this hotel is the outdoor drinks/food area at the front over looking the river and a delightful garden. Well done Hand Hotel!
