Lovely overnight stay
Had a lovely overnight stay at the Angel Hotel. Check in was easy - staff are lovely & friendly (Joey even remembered we'd stayed before!). We got upgraded to a suite room which overlooked the castle - room spacious and clean but bed not so comfortable. would love to see king size beds at the hotel. it was nice to have a fan in the room. Lovely breakfast as always.

Room was comfy although overall space needs upgrading. Shower - it was difficult to get this to right temperature. But centrally located and good stay in general
Felt safe, quiet especially at night ...even when there was a major event taking place in the arena. Good location for shopping and sightseeing. Convient for most of Cardiff.

Fairly quiet in the room. Breakfast was great. Pillows were a bit hard, but asked for some softer ones. Staff were friendly. Issue about paying for additional breakfast for under 5 year old
Stayed just one night for an event at the principality stadium which is just a couple of minutes walk, also convenient for City center shops and nightlife. Parking in nearby NCP multi-storey carpark with discount code from hotel 7.95 for 24 hours. Breakfast was exceptional and staff efficient and friendly. Rooms a bit dated but comfortable. Lovely view of Cardiff castle from room.
Overall great value and would recommend to anyone looking for a well situated place to lay your head down.

Convenient for all attractions room comfortable however its looks very tired and needs a complete makeover
A short but enjoyable stay. Staff very pleasant and helpful.
Bedroom, although a bit dated was very clean and comfortable. Dining area and food excellent. Exterior of building would benefit with a coat of paint.
