It's an old but well kept property bang in the city centre with shops, restaurants, pubs, the central train & bus stations nearby. It's so accessible that we had no need for transportation at all. The major drawbacks are that breakfast isn't available on week days and the hotel has no elevator, so get ready to log your heavy luggage all the way up flights of creaky stairs.

Me and my daughter stayed here on the 23/6/2025 when we came to see Lana Del Rey. From the minute we arrived we were welcomed by the lovely receptionist. The room was clean and comfortable. It was also well stocked with tea, coffee etc and a lovely treat of Welsh cakes. Location wise you can't go wrong either. You are in walking distance of Principality Stadium & the train station. So a couple of minutes walks to both. You are also close to lots of eateries & bars. You are in a central location. If we ever go back to Cardiff, we will definitely book here again, without a doubt

Great location, right in the heart of the main resurant and shops, yet quiet. The staff were so friendly and helpful. A big thanks to the lovely lady on reception when we arrived making the stay relaxing and enjoyable. The property while of a older vintage is clean, warm and the bed was super comfortable. Diisounted parking in public parking close by was available. . Property has no parking access out front as on the walking only part of the shops. There are also steps, no lift. Secure front aceess too. I would stay again. Thanks very much to the staff for making our stay memorable in Cardiff.

We choose to stay at this family run hotel because it was in a very central convienient location. There is😀NCP parking very near for which the hotel offered a discount code making it much more affordable . Although we did not have the breakfast it was available at a very respectable price. The rooms are a good size and clean with everything you need. The hotel is tired and could absolutely do with a refurbishment for sure and you would struggle if you had mobility problems but it suited us really . We had a good night's sleep and the staff were very friendly.
