Tragic this stunning boutique hotel has closed. Was a wonderful place and fantastic for lunch and then having coffee in the lovely grounds. The rooms were furnished to perfection.I really hope an upmarket hotel chain will reopen it. I think the name was a problem because people couldn't spell the HOLM and couldn't remember the name easily. It also opened... More

Regrettably the Holm House Hotel ceased trading at the end of May 2012. The gates of the hotel are closed, the web site has been taken down and a recorded apologetic message now plays on the ansafone. It's a great shame. This was the best hotel in Penarth.

Our children booked this hotel for us to stay for one night including dinner for out 30th wedding anniversary. It is an absolute hidden gem of a place. The decor and ambience is lovely, almost as if you are staying in a friend's house rather than a hotel. Our suite was beautiful, it was on the top floor and was... More

This time was... More

This was the last point on our Mr and Mrs Easter Wales Tour. It was our first visit to Cardiff so a great point to venture off through the leafy streets to the marina to get the boat to the Bay. Lovely feel to the ground floor with its 1920s grandeur. The staff were an electic mix with not much... More

amazing relaxing stay at Holm House. Upon arrival we were upgraded to a beautiful suite complete with copper bath tub. Dinner in the restaurant was delicious and we headed back to London feeling very relaxed.

This excellent hotel is set in a quiet street of large houses just back from the sea in Penarth. It is very service oriented, with a young, dedicated team. Bags were quickly delivered to the room. The rooms themselves are well appointed and beautifully decorated (we asked to see some of the other rooms during our stay - they are... More
