What happened after The Hotel Inspector?

Caer Beris Manor is a country house hotel and restaurant on the edge of Builth Wells, Powys, which the Channel 5 episode (series 17, episode 3, aired 2022-06-30) titled “Caer Beris Manor, Brecon Beacons”. TVmaze's listing describes a family of first-time hoteliers running a 22-bedroom manor with fine-dining ambitions but only a skeleton crew, and says Alex Polizzi advised them to pause their Michelin-star plans. The Wikipedia list of Hotel Inspector episodes names the owners as Omar, a former real estate agent, and his wife.

Earlier history appears in sale material for the same property. The Brecon & Radnor Express reported on 2016-05-19 that the AA three-star Caer Beris Hotel, a Grade II listed 19th-century building on the edge of Builth Wells, was for sale through Christie & Co at an asking price of £1 million after almost 30 years under one owner. The paper said it had 23 bedrooms, 25 acres of grounds with river fishing rights, and a restaurant with an AA Rosette. Christie & Co's own sales page, which carries no date, gives the same ownership period and bedroom count. A Google Maps listing gives the address as Caer Beris Manor Hotel & Restaurant, Builth Wells LD2 3NP.

The Shropshire Star reported on 12 January 2023 that the owning family of the Caer Beris Hotel at Builth Wells, which the paper said was marketed through Christie & Co at an asking price of 1.75 million pounds, had said the hotel closed indefinitely from 31 December 2022 because costs had almost tripled. Hotels.com's listing for Caer Beris Manor carries a notice that the property is closed from 28 December 2022 to 31 December 2023, and its newest guest reviews are dated November and December 2022. A separate Expedia listing named Caer Beris Hotel, with a Golf Links Road address, shows guest reviews dated September 2025 to May 2026; it does not say whether it is the same operation.
