The Queen's Head Hotel is prominently situated on St James Street in the historic market town of Monmouth, occupying a prominent corner position within the town centre. Monmouth is located at the confluence of the Rivers Monnow and Wye, approximately 2 miles from the England and Wales border, and serves as a popular gateway to the Wye Valley and surrounding countryside.

Monmouth is a well established tourist destination, renowned for its rich history, attractive town centre and range of independent retailers, cafs, restaurants and visitor attractions. The town is home to Monmouth Castle, the birthplace of King Henry V, and the historic Monnow Bridge, one of the few remaining fortified medieval bridges in Britain.
