Conveniently situated and close to all amenities and shopping. Check in was easy and staff were friendly and efficient. Room was small and very dated, window frame very old and bathroom needs a totally overhaul. This would be a great stay if the rooms were updated.

We checked in on time. The hotel looked after our luggage before check in & after we'd checked out. The room was clean and warm. The staff here were absolutely fantastic and the service from everyone was excellent. We would definitely stay here again.

I paid extra for a suite room number 136. On walking up to the receptionist we encountered a strong overpowering smell of cigarette smell. FIrst impressions rundown. The headboard was obviously broken as was down about 8" on the one side. Very few bits of very dated furniture in room. Glasses in bathroom unuseable as dirty. Black marks in loo bowl. Only one bath towel between two people. Only two teabags. Curtains didnt cover the windows. Curtain pelmets falling off. Marks that looked like spit on the wallpaper. Breakfast had to change cup as several rings where had been used before. Was told they only do coffee from a box so they said it was instant only. We were under the impression that there was parking. ..there is no parking! They gave us a discount code for the ncp but this wasn't accepted after 4 tries we gave up. I had fond memories of this hotel but now its a crumbling fossil of a bygone age. Heart breaking as was to be part of a christmas treat for my partner. We won't be back.

The breakfast was nice and the hotel was clean. It was perfectly located for shopping. However our room was disappointing, the radiator didn’t work so we had a portable one in the room. This would have been fine but it made a clicking noise so we couldn’t keep it on to sleep with and it was cold. The bed was nice but the pillows were hard and we must have been located by a boiler or generator as it was loud all night. We didn’t sleep so would not recommend room 312.

The reception and main staircase are glorious A memory of it's prestigious past. But if you go further the angle is looking tired and a bit ragged, desperately in need off investment to return her to former glory. That said the staff are friendly and helpful.

Lovely friendly staff. Very convenient location. I had a room at the back of the hotel and it was really quiet considering it is right in the city centre. It is an older hotel but was very clean. Bed was super comfy!

I just would've enjoyed a real martini in the evening. No olives and not allowed to mix alcohol types. Would the bylaw limitation be about the alcohol amount? Or could I have ordered ice on the side, a Staff were great. I did not see that they were open for breakfast.shot of vermouth and a shot of Gin?

The Angel is my favourite hotel in Cardiff and I’ve been staying there for over 50 yrs. It’s full of memories for me and still as beautiful. The staff are friendly and kind and I had a lovely appointed room. It’s Victorian charm is wonderful and full of character ❤️

It was a beautiful stay here. The only downfall was, there was a party directly downstairs from our room. I completely understand this will happen especially towards Christmas, it just would have been nice to be warned or potentially move rooms. We didn’t get any sleep that night, the music was blasting. Other than that, it’s a beautiful place

The hotel have closed their car park but did not inform us , the nearby NCP car park cost us an extra £32 which we had not allowed for in our finances. Had we have been told beforehand we would have been prepared for the walk up the high street from the car park with our luggage.!!
