Excellent Sunday lunch, the lamb dinners were the best my husband and father had ever had! Service was excellent and staff very friendly. My parents enjoyed it so much that they will be visiting again in the new year. We will definitely go back on our next stay.

There are no words to describe just how fantastic this place really is! We recently had our wedding weekend there and they blew us away with the incredible attention to detail and quality of the venue and the staff!
We spent the weekend with the team after many delays due to COVID and nothing was ever too much trouble for them both through the weekend and in the very long build-up. A warm and friendly welcome was given to all and the wedding was absolutely magical.
The service that you receive from the team led by Tim, Alex and Paul is 5* and the wedding which was all organised by the magnificent Carol Knight and Weddings at Glen yr Afon House Hotel was unbelievable. You can tell that the team (some of whom have been there for many, many years), really enjoy being there and have a genuine care for their client's satisfaction.
The value for money not only on the wedding packages but also the accommodation is excellent, and the food is unbelievable. I have travelled a lot through work and never had food in a hotel of the quality (or excellent portion size) as I had over this weekend. We had over 80 people eating and everyone highlighted the service and food as a particular highlight.
These guys are genuinely nice people and couldn't do enough to support us. The wait we had to endure was worth every day of delay and I couldn't compliment them enough. This was echoed by all of our guests who came to our wedding and stayed at the venue.
If you are looking for a hotel and accommodation in the area or are thinking about booking your wedding, ring these guys. You wont be disappointed. Carol Knight won't disappoint on the wedding front!
There aren't many businesses around now that still stand for traditional great service and looking after your clients, but these guys do and you can see it in every aspect when working with them.
We are eternally grateful to everyone on the team for creating a magical experience that will live with us forever! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We can never express how grateful we are!
Mark & Donna

Had my wedding here on the 15.07.22, what can I say? amazing! Was the only venue me and my husband looked at, and we didn?t need to look anywhere else. Carol is such a great wedding planner, she made me feel so relaxed and nothing was too much trouble, all the staff on the day were amazing, friendly and polite.
The food was delicious from our family meal the night before in the beautiful library to the food on the wedding day. Absolutely loved the day, couldn?t have asked for better, so thank you.
Will be returning soon for our anniversary ?

Food is delicious, portions are large, chips to die for and excellent selection of fresh vegetables accompanying main course.

The restaurant we were due to take our mother for her 70th Birthday Meal cancelled 30 minutes before our booking time due to a power cut. We were desperately looking for another restaurant on a Saturday evening but after a call to the Glan Yr Afon they were able to fit us in. As we were already on our way to Usk we arrived 45 minutes early but staff were very accommodating and showed us through to the bar so we could have a drink and wait for our table. We mentioned to the manager that our meal was a 70th Birthday celebration and when shown to our table they had decorated the table which was a lovely touch. There was a good selection of main meals and we choose curried cod, ribeye steak with peppercorn sauce and a fillet steak with stilton sauce. All the mains were served with generous potions of chips, new potatoes and seasonal vegetables included with the meal. The steaks were cooked exceptionally well and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. We were also tempted by desserts which were again delicious. The staff were attentive and couldn't do enough to ensure we had an enjoyable evening. I would definitely recommend the restaurant and we will be retuning again soon.

Food choices were varied and imaginative and cooked fresh to order. The wonderful tradition of the addition of a sorbet between starter and main. My duck was a little over-cooked which was a shame, but the flavours were rich and perfectly balanced. Service is professional and respectful, whilst maintaining a friendly approach. Altogether very enjoyable indeed. Will definitely go back as soon as we can

Lovely service as always. Food a little disappointing... pork hugely over cooked and dry. Starters ok. Bill huge. Try the Olway next time

I stayed at the Glen for a week and ate in Clarke's restaurant a few times. The food is top class - homemade from fresh ingredients. There is a range of options to suit all tastes and budgets. The staff are a particular asset - the service is attentive and friendly, without being overbearing. I would highly recommend.

Having had excellent service at my daughter's wedding back in 2014, we decided to go back to the Hotel to try their Sunday lunch. We booked a table last minute for yesterday (29th) We were greeted warmly on arrival and directed to the bar for pre-dinner drinks. Were called through to the restaurant after ten minutes where we were served a 3 course lunch. Fabulous food with excellent service Would definitely recommend a visit for Sunday lunch
