Fantastic set of rooms attached to a pub, but 4* rating. My room had air conditioning and an amazing power shower. I had two loverly evening meals. Staff were very friendly, couldn’t fault the place. I will be back 👏👍
Lovely place, definitely will stay again, had food and recommend the Ceasar salad. Room was spacious with a very smart en-suite, a little road noise with the window open but the double glazing works very well
Great location for the Cathedral at the other end of the high street and we stayed in the wonderful Llandaff Cathedral Family Room. wonderful shower and very comfortable bed. Excellent classic cooked breakfast (meat & vegan). But best of all was the service from Chris, Ben and the rest of the team (sorry forgotten the young ladies names) we had two great evening meals and our fellow choristers also enjoyed the food and drink (they were staying at the uni) Excellent pints of Rev James (perhaps had too many!!) Great to have secure free parking too. Thank you!
Check in was quick and the staff were all so polite and helpful

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room we were given had a king bed. The Millennium room" The mattress was well and truely past it's useby date, I'd say by 10 years. Appearance the bed had a huge dip in the middle. Sat on the side of the bed. There was no way we were sleeping on this bed that night. We felt all the way down to the wooden bed base! Telling the young girl that checked us in about the lack of mattress she appeared dumb, I don't normally work in accommodation side. She rang the manager and we were given another room " The Bute" the bed was fine.
A review going back December 2023 had the same view about the mattress.
I don't for the life of me understand why a mattress like this would still be in use. The only reason is that no care has gone into the accommodation side. The pub meal was so so, and the staff were not enthusiastic. They asked if we had a booking and when we said we were staying here they sat us. Said they were running out of stock.
A lovely comfortable stay, slept well in a comfortable bed.
The bathroom was nice very spacious and clean.
We had a nice meal and a very tasty breakfast, bonus point for Gluten free sausages.
All staff were very friendly.
Will definitely stay again.
Modern, clean boutique room. Helpful staff. Great food. Trivial downside - a couple of dining room windows cobwebbed with dusty blinds but wouldn’t deter us from staying again
Me and my partner stayed while we were visiting family, its a brilliant hotel, the staff are so friendly and helpful, the room was fantastic, we will definitely book again when we come to Cardiff.
