Property Features and History
The Priory Hotel occupies a historic building with secluded grounds, featuring a terrace and garden. A passage underneath the hotel to the Bull Inn is rumored to have been used by monks. Safety features include carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, and first aid kits. Live music events are held on-site.
“The Priory impresses with its roots stretching back to 1180 and distinctive Northern Spain-inspired dining; even better, it sits in Caerleon, convenient for history buffs. However, some operational inconsistencies and a less-than-ideal breakfast experience mean expectations should be tempered. For a unique stay steeped in history, The Priory has undeniable appeal.”
