Couldn’t fault any thing, allowed to check in early and the room was great. Breakfast was superb and would definitely stay there again highly recommended
Absolutely delightful hotel. Me and a friend booked a room each for the Hay Festival, and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay. The staff were wonderful; helpful, friendly, even showed us to our rooms. The location was great, not too far away but far enough that I’d was quiet and tranquil. The breakfast is well worth the money, as is the Old Barn pub across the road, where we ate that night. A fantastic stay, I can’t wait to return with my husband next time.
Rooms have very recently been renovated. Everything modern and very comfortable.
On the main floor are two levely communal areas for relaxing or reading.
This place has a history as a coaching hotel - elements of that history are beautifully used in the current interior design.

Heating did not work in room. Strange Techy control button which could not be 'Mounted' and did not work. Nobody around to help after early evening.
Breakfast very nice indeed. Staff were very apologetic next morning and gave us a free breakfast to compensate.

Fabulous room and excellent breakfast. We can’t recommend this hotel enough. It is beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. Such a quirky old building has been updated to a very high standard whilst still retaining the charm of the original beams and uneven floors. The lit stove in the reception gave a warm welcome each time we entered. The staff were really lovely, friendly and helpful. A very relaxed stay, I hope we will be able to visit again.
One of the nicest places I’ve stayed. Rooms were incredible, staff were lovely and food was amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back again!
The property is so beautifully decorated, has a great atmosphere and outstanding staff. We felt recharged after our stay there and highly recommend The Three Cocks
I have stayed at this location a couple of time the young lady at reception is friendly and nice. I will definitely stay and recommend this hotwl in the future.
Fantastic hotel, really atmospheric and cosy, we sat up late in the panelled lounge chatting, perfect venue for friends to catch up.
Breakfast was cooked to order and really delicious.
We had an excellent stay at the Three Cocks Hotel. The hotel is very well furnished, exceptionally clean, super comfortable, and cosy.
Jessica and the team were very helpful and accommodating - the breakfast was lovely.
Location-wise it was perfect to get into Hay-on-Wye by car and taxi (but do book ahead of time).
The whole hotel is absolutely beautiful . The Rooms are stunning and spacious. The ladies on reception went above and beyond . Will definitely like to stay again when we are back in the area .
The loveliest, most accommodating hosts. We arrived early and were going to just drop our bags off due to needing to rush to a wedding, but they had our room ready so we could freshen up first, amazing service and so friendly
Lovely country b&b with full of character. Paying extra for breakfast was worthwhile where all dietary needs are catered for. Convenient pub across the road for an evening meal.
Very clean even with some remodeling being done. Great place to eat right across the street. Easy to find and get to other places. Friendly Staff, overall great experience.
Great trip to the 3 Cocks! Lovely room, very clean - with everything you need. Good welcome when we arrived. Breakfast was cooked to order and very good value. Ingredients were great quality. Everything cooked to perfection - poached eggs specifically! Would recommend and would stay again.
