Alison was a very friendly and welcoming host. She made us feel comfortable, very knowledgeable if good restaurants. Breakfast was superb, waitress was excellent and friendly. Rooms were comfortable as were only there for 2 nights. Needs updating on decor as a little dated however we wernt there to look at the decor. Will definitely be booking again in the summer of 2026.

10/10 Exceptional

A return visit for us, in the city for a concert at the arena. The hotel is central for most of the venues we go to in Cardiff, in the heart of the city centre and a very short walk to the train and bus stations. The staff are friendly and informative, we will stay again!

This hotel is in a great local for everything. The owners are so helpful and friendly. It was my daughter’s birthday and they left a bottle of fizz and 6 glasses in her room. We had a perfect stay. It could do with an update but for a few nights stay it’s just perfect. We will definitely be back
