Grove Hotel

Very clean food was good quality staff good, downside took long time to take order overall highly recommended very good. Like to hear a bit of music to lighten the dining experience. But I would definitely go back. Experience for me is from the dining to the bar to the toilet facilities was it good enough yes it was. Get some nice music you smashed the experience, plus bit quicker with a big order maybe more staff. Recommended the Grove Hotel

Visited at the start of April so still relatively quiet time for tourism , hence on 4 stars for atmosphere and for food as we only had a perfectly good breakfast. The hotel had a great location , just a stoned throw from the centre and cathedral with easy walk down to the coastal path. The hotel main areas were warm ( chilly out in the evening ) and the service was excellent, helpful and friendly. The room was above expectation. Well decorated, all the facilities expected, including armchairs and a very comfortable bed. ( room 9 ). Everything was spotlessly clean. The restaurant advertised a number of daily specials offers , usually a meal for about £14/15 including a drink. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for the perfect stay in St David's.

Really tasty gammon but even better with discount code! Service was very prompt Will definitely be back to try the lunch time menu 😁 possibly some cocktails soon. The beer garden must be the place to be in the summer. Thank you 🙏

We had come to the grove for a family birthday meal and it was fantastic, the staff were lovely and made the place feel less robotic and more inviting like your actually having a conversation and were very accommodating to my allergies. We had two gammon steaks, a lunch club hunters chicken, and a chicken and bacon salad and all were very well presented and tasted amazing. I will definitely be coming back here in the near future.

Friendly staff. Breakfast was excellent, and great value. Took a little while to make, but we weren't in a rush. The rooms were ok, a little tired but fine if you are not fussy. So totally happy considering the price.

I can only imagine what this place was like 20 years ago, it feels a bit like Marston's are maybe doing the bare minimum here to keep it going. The walled garden space could be phenomenal, but is barely kept at the moment. The people here were all great, the beer selection was OK. But the missed potential of this place is crazy.

I did not eat here this time round, though have in the past and the food was ok, so this review is very much reviewing the hotel rather than the restaurant. I stayed a night. It’s a funny little place. Warm, generally friendly, clean. Showers are good but beds are too soft. There’s a loud extractor fan which runs while the kitchen is open, which can affect certain rooms. Depends on the guest as to whether you’re bothered by that. The common areas are extremely tatty and in need of major attention. I suspect the ever increasing “pet friendly” policy adopted by so many hotels these days operates here. I’ve no objection to dogs but I’d rather book a room that hasn’t had multiple dogs in it. So there should definitely be an option to choose a room that has NOT been occupied by pets. The outside areas need to be a lot neater. I arrived to long grass, weeds, garish signs outside- not a good first impression. Location is great, and it’s a bit of a St David’s stalwart. I’d go back, but Marston’s need to spend a bit of cash on the place.

Staff were lovely, really nice people. We came at prime time on a Saturday so we were told that we had a 45 minute wait and hey were bang on. Came out right on time and staff were incredibly apologetic about it all. Quick service behind the bar with a lovely choice of drinks. Looking at the menu there were some amazing deals in the week. Would fully recommend, worth the walk up the road Lovely outside garden with a place for live music

This hotel is on the edge of St Davids as you start heading out towards Haverfordwest. It is opposite the fabulous Tourist Info Centre. There is a smallish car park to the side but if you are coming from the town it is a few hundred yards so you don't need the car. I can get very busy at times but it welcomes people from all walks of life. They didn't bat an eyelid at people coming in in walking gear or those who where dressed to the nines. There was a main menu, a summertime menu and a kids menu. There were some interesting items on the menu but most of it was fairly standard fare. We ordered a pizza for our daughter fromthe kids menu which was a very decent £2.99. It consisted of a 7 inch pizza, chips and beans. The pizza I would say was of the frozen variety rather than home-made but there was a generous portion of chips with it. My partner and I both ordered the curries. There were two on the menu, a medium to hot and a mild to medium. We had one of each. They were accompanied by boiled rice and chips and a small portion of mini poppadoms. My partner also got a little dish of mango chutney with his but I didn't, I don't know why. Both meals were absolutely delicious. We followed up with two knickerbocker glories and a clotted cream cheesecake. The cheesecake was fabulous but my daughter and I were disappointed with the knickerbocker glories. It said fresh fruit but the fruit was obviously of the tinned variety and a little bit too much of that too. I had a coffee which was delicious and my partner had a pint of Reverend James which he said was spot on. The prices were reasonable at £7.95 for the curries. The restaurant is in a conservatory type wing of the hotel and is very modern and clean with arty photos of local places and things on the wall. Enjoyed it so much that we went again a few nights later. Can't comment on the hotel facilities though as we weren't staying there.

The bar and dinner areas were immaculate, with some nice comfy sofas to chill out on. Certainly not rustic but there was a clean, modern feel to the place. We frequented the bar a few times as the drinks were reasonably priced. I had a few meals here and I would put them a notch above the standard pub chain offerings. Portions were fair but you could tell sauces were straight out of a packet. The burgers are worth a punt though as they are sourced locally using the excellent welsh beef. On the whole I cannot be too critical as the price for a meal was perfectly reasonable and service was friendly. There arent many lunch time eateries in St David's so you should be on to a winner. Whatever you do dont be lazy and opt for the Dyfed Fish and Chip Bar further into the city as I had the worst meal I have ever had in my life there. I cannot comment on the hotel rooms as I was not a resident.

This is a lovely hoten on the edge of St. Davids. It really is the first building you come to as you enter Britains smallest city. The food was very good and the service as well. Even though it was busy you were not ignored.
