Happy to stay again
Had an upgraded room with a view of the castle which was nice. The building is looking a bit tired, however I believe it was fair value. It was clean and service were polite and friendly. Great location for me

Show & City Break
We booked The Angel Hotel, due to it central location close to Cardiff Castle and Sophia Gardens where we had booked to see The Bohemians - Queens Greatest hits. First room we were given had a problem with the heating but after reporting it the deputy manager came in 10 minutes to move us to another room. The room was clean and spacious with a comfortable bed. Excellent value £55 B&B. Breakfast was good and hot. Wife asked if they had vegetarian sausages and it was no problem. Nice and tasty and not too long a wait.

Highly Recommend
The trip was amazing. The staff were so friendly, very conversational and interactive. They watched my bags all day while I was at a show. The hotel is definitely an older building, but it has so much character. It’s right next to so many destinations and a lot of shopping. Highly recommended.
