“I shall stay with you again! Your staff's approach puts you above others.”
I have stayed at the Marquis a few times in the past and I was impressed when I booked in. The manager warned me that there was live music in the venue that evening and asked me if I wished to move room. As this was very unlikely to affect me, I told no thank you. The staff are brilliant and the town location is just what I needed. Breakfast was excellent!

“Ok for a one night stay, but access and parking is poor and location leaves a lot to be desired.”
The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was tidy and had its own en suite bathroom which was a bit tired, but still OK. The room was good value at £70

“A COMFORTABLE ENOUGH STAY”
Room was clean. Breakfasts were to my liking. Staff attentive, friendly & helpful. I was in Aberdare to attend a family funeral. The funeral tea was held also at the Marquis. A very good spread, more than adequate and not over fussy.
