We booked the Elgano for an overnight stay and glad had chosen just one night. While not lacking anything as such, what was there was okay. Our cold, double room was small and no room to walk around the hard bed. Heating on timer. Room space was tight. Breakfast was okay. Parking could be tricky at busy times. Card payments... More

We booked this hotel as a short family break in Cardiff. Both rooms were comfortable and had all we needed in them. The breakfast in the morning and the service was very good. The owners know the city very well and helped with many suggestions of trips and attractions for overseas visitors sharing breakfast with us. It is comfortably within... More

We booked a family room for an overnight stay. The room was a good size and the beds good quality. Arriving on a very cold day it would have been better to have put some heating on in the room and bathroom. The staff were very friendly and we had a lovely cooked breakfast - no need to use such...

Great hotel, the staff could not have been friendlier or more helpfull. Lovely breakfast too. Walk in to cardiff center takes 20 mins. The room was quiet and comfortably had three single beds. Kettle with tea and coffee was provided.

Every aspect of our stay was great. Location, breakfast, reasonable cost, off street parking and comfortable room: but the highlight was the friendly welcoming owners and staff. We will definitely be back.
