It was a great time there. A perfect stay for everyone. When problems arrive, the hosts doing everything possible. Great stay, I hope to come back someday.

The Avenue is a one of many Victorian guest houses along Cathedral Road in Cardiff. However after reading many reviews this guest house sounded good, so we gave it a go. Only needed to stay for 1 night but happily stay for longer, Colette was a lovely host, keen to show us maps of the area, suggest places to visit... More

I booked this guest house because the other B&Bs I have stayed at were all booked up. I wasn't too sure about a place for £35 a night for a single room in Cardiff because of how expensive most places are in Cardiff, but the reviews where good so decided to give a try. I am really glad that I... More

If you're looking for a good clean place to stop over for a night or 2 you could to much worse than here. The Greeting we received was excellent with lots of local info on places to eat and so on. Collette was happy to call us a taxi when we wanted and Paul was kind enough to do some... More

A warm welcome was received on check-in and the room itself was clean, comfortable and well presented. Little touches like a bottle of water in the room and cotton wool balls in the bathroom were pleasant surprises given the low price of the room. The B&B was approximately a 30 minutes walk from the train station if sticking to the... More

I enjoyed a very comfortable stay - the hostess was very friendly and helpful and I was recommended a number of local restaurants.. The room was warm and cosy and although there weren't coffee and tea making ameneties in the room itself, they were freely available in the kitchen/dining room downstairs... the only minor criticisms were that the room was...

Myself and boyfriend traveled to Cardiff for an engagement party. After a pretty rubbish taxi drive from the station we found The Avenue. We welcomed by Paul who was watching out for us. We had room one on the ground floor, the room was beautiful and very cosy/warm (considering it was in the minus' outside). There were lots of little... More

We stayed at the Avenue Guest House just for one night. The welcome and goodbye was very nice, the hosts are charming, but unfortunately there are a lot of BUTs. First of all I got an e-mail from the hostess 2 days before our arrival in which she told us that she has made a mistake and mixed up the... More

We stayed here for 4 nights in October 2010 and were pleasantly surprised. Clean and neat - and our room, Room 1 on the ground floor, was huge! The continental breakfast was lovely, and so were the proprietors. The location is fantastic - five minute walk from restaurants, pharmacy, and a laundrette, and there's a bus stop that goes into...
