Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were the highlight, without exception friendly, helpful and efficient. Clearly the hotel has been grand in its time. It is now dated and while kept clean and reasonably decorated, some of the carpets are past their sell by date and having no usb connection in the rooms is now pretty rare. Breakfast was a reasonable buffet, though scrambled rather than fried eggs would have been good. Very central, close to all main tourist and sports venues, particularly the rugby!

Terrible, I requested a change to my reservation date and between Hotels.com and the Angel hotel I was fobbed off between the 2 of you. This meant I could not travel and no organisation came back confirming my request to change the date. Very disappointing and expensive for me. My request was done within the time frame that I was given through this platform.

Wonderful location

The location is perfect. From our room, we could see the clock Tower ☺️ of Cardiff castle. Joey in the reception was very kind, as all other staff. The hotel is an antique and traditional building, very beautiful both inside and outside, but our room was newly refurbished

The hotel is tired and in need of a renovation. However this somehow adds to its charm. Air conditioning would be a benefit.

Lovely hotel and location

Lovely hotel. Great location and breakfast. Staff were friendly. Just needed more staff at breakfast as run out of spoons and couldn’t find anyone and no one to greet you to breakfast. Great staff though.
