Very comfortable 17th century residential hotel and former coaching inn with its old livery stables opposite the Porthycarne Street entrance. it changed its name from the Golden Cross when salmon fishing became very popular in the Victorian age. The main access for parking is off Bridge Street where you proceed through the pleasant garden to access the public bar, reception, the popular lounge (note the old fishing tackle in a wall-mounted display) and restaurant, the latter with a real fire for colder days. The hotel is known for its excellent award-winning food with fish figuring largely on the menu. Al fresco dining is available in the courtyard garden. Wye Valley Butty Bach is the resident ale and is sometimes joined either by a stablemate or beer(s) from other well known family or regional brewers, or the occasional microbrewery. Guest ciders may appear in summer to coincide with the Usk festival.
