Hotels in Abergavenny

Abergavenny's accommodation is as varied as its setting, ranging from smart boutique inns and traditional coaching houses in the town centre to farmhouse bed and breakfasts and self-catering cottages scattered across the surrounding hills. Staying centrally means you can walk to the castle, market and restaurants, and step straight onto a train if you are exploring further afield along the Newport to Hereford line. Many visitors instead choose to base themselves just outside town, in villages such as Crickhowell, Llanvihangel Crucorney or along the Usk Valley, trading a little convenience for direct access to walking routes up the Sugar Loaf, Blorenge and Skirrid Fawr.

Given Abergavenny's standing as a food destination, a number of the area's hotels and inns are as well known for their kitchens as their rooms, making a stay here as much about the dining as the accommodation. Rooms tend to book up quickly around the Abergavenny Food Festival weekend in September, so early booking is worthwhile if visiting at that time. Outside festival season, the town offers reliable year-round availability across most budgets, from simple guest houses to more indulgent country-house style stays with views towards the Black Mountains.
