Wrexham Central Stay Apartment Seven

Wrexham Llyndir Hotel by Belvilla

"We didn't stay here in the end, despite booking it, and feel very unhappy about the process (review ratings above put in so I could submit the commentary below). I was in a rush, my first time using the Trip App, and there was a very cheap room only deal for this Hotel, which showed 4 stars on the Trip site. We really only needed a room for the night whilst collecting a car so I wasn't as diligent as I would normally be. We expected to arrive late, so I tried to call to notify staff and ensure we could still check in. I called the number shown but it was clearly a multi-chain customer service site and they didn't recognise either the hotel or my booking reference. I googled to find a direct number, to no avail. I then checked Tripadvisor and noticed the recent reviews were terrible. In short, this is a run-down former hotel (that had good reviews pre-covid) that was closed for some time, and has been re-opened on a "remote-managed basis" - lots of very unhappy customers, but even the Tripadvisor review hasn't yet been dragged down by the current performance. Unfortunately the "cheap" price was attached to a no-cancel policy so I was unable to cancel the booking even a few minutes after making it. We chose to stay somewhere else, and they very kindly sorted us out at a good price. I understand I am partly culpable because of a lack of due diligence, however the manner of scalping a quick booking through a cheap price and then refusing any cancellation leaves a very bitter feeling from a customer service point of view. I would hope Trip would be better than this."

"We arrived after allocated time room was not ready. Offered a downgrade !! Staff literally don’t care. Place is an absolute mess. No food or drink to buy and a good walk to anywhere else"
