Hotels in Abergavenny

Market-town hotels — food-festival and castle weekends, not a Chepstow race stay.

Abergavenny hotels sit in the market town below the castle — useful if you are mixing Cadw with Beacons walks. Confirm parking; food-festival weekend fills rooms. Chepstow racecourse hotels are a different product on the same taxi table.
