Luckily, I chose the Butchers Arms. The room was lovely and clean and the bed very comfortable. The food was filling and tasty and I had breakfast looking across to the start of the Brecon Beacons. The beer was wonderful especially the Butty Bach (little friend in Welsh). ##### Julian Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Hannah Aug 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities ##### Hannah Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Comfort Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Campbell-River-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites.h9423557.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B 100 Mile House](https://www.expedia.ca/100-Mile-House-Bed-And-Breakfast.d6058290-aaBedAndBreakfast.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Vivian Motor Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Neepawa-Hotels-Vivian-Motor-Hotel.h57258304.Hotel-Information) > >  [Hampton Inn & Suites San Diego Airport Liberty Station](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-San-Diego-Airport-Liberty-Station.h32749216.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Sacramento](https://www.expedia.ca/Sacramento-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d180049-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Ste.
