STAY CLEAR! RIP OFF! Dirty, old and where is the boutique?! Customer service non existent! The Oreil room was so dirty, dusty, bathroom mouldy, random stains that look bloody, the bed was so old and uncomfortable and lumpy, you could feel the springs, do they never get replaced?! So called management don't want to do anything about genuine complaints from paying customers, vile behaviour.

Absolutely love this little place. Rooms are lovely and clean and have everything you need for a good nights rest. The food was fantastic and the service was 10/10. All round great place to stay and we would definately visit again. Gavin was a really lovely host!

Room was nice enough instructions on email very difficult to follow not sure about having to scan your hand in times of Covid. Didn't really see the owners room was ok clean and tidy tv didn't seem to pic up any channels parking away from the property isn't great but at least at no extra cost.

This hotel is like home away from home, it is beautifully decorated and is full of amazing little touches feather pillows and duvet, comfy mattress and really nice coffee and tea facilities. The owner is friendly and the location is excellent, I highly recommend this hotel!

We stayed on a Friday and Saturday night as we were visiting family in the area. We have two large pooches that they were happy to accommodate. Great room on the top floor with great views of Ruthin and the surrounding hills. The rooms were well appointed and to a high standard. The bathroom was extremely luxurious. Bed was incredible comfy with feather duvet and pillows.

There were two dog beds for our pooches and bowls for food and water. We had breakfast in the dining room and not a morsel was left on our plates. Minimal contact with anyone if you're afraid of covid. Despite this being a dog friendly hotel it DID NOT smell of dogs, not even in our room. Would happily stay here again, even without pooches!

Let us not get confused here. All this fusion crap going on with trying to make food more 'interesting' has unfortunately spilled over into the accommodation business. Fundamentally it means that people fill a place full of tat and upsell by saying their bed and breakfast is now a 'Boutique Hotel' and charging double or even triple what the going rate is.

I have paid far less in London for hotels far better than this. I paid a Kings ransom purely because it was a last minute booking and I was going to be out until the wee hours at a local gig and it seems this was enough to bump u the price. To top it all, I missed the roll call for breakfast and they didn't even offer to make up a small plate or pot of Tea in lieu.

I managed to get a laff out of the experience though, as I was leaving it started to piss down and, because they don't have parking, I had to walk half a mile to recover the vehicle. The 'Manager' opened the door for me and basically shut it immediately behind me without a word of goodbye or the offer of an umbrella. I felt about as welcome as a fart in a spacesuit.

It was so existential it actually made me laugh out loud. For the record. A boutique is "a small store that sells stylish clothing, jewelry, or other usually luxury goods".The word is French for "shop". By literal definition, it is not a fucking hotel.

The Manorhaus in Ruthin is a charming gem of hotel run by 2 fellows with exquisite taste. The hotel's exterior is a bit drab but once you get inside, it is comfortably (if eclectically) decorated. I am not a fan of modern art but even I was intrigued by the unusual photographs and paintings which apparently change out from time to time. In fact, it felt a bit like being in a hip fun art gallery.

Our room was well appointed with a comfortable bed, a flat screen TV, a DVD player and excellent reading lights. The hotel has a small sauna, a delightful reading room/library filled with the latest design magazines and large selection of current DVD's to play back in your room. We booked a half-board stay and really enjoyed the food at the Manorhaus.

In fact, the best dessert of our trip to the UK was their Lemon Tart with homemade Honey Ice Cream! We even tried to get the recipe but they politely refused as there are plans to eventually market it. (it is THAT GOOD!). There were several breakfast offerings ranging from healthy to typical fried breakfast foods.
