Had reservation August 31st 2022 were warmly welcomed had a delicious meal in very attractive surroundings, the restaurant has a lovely atmosphere the staff were very attentive would highly recommend and will definitely visit again !

Lovely Restaurant

I stayed here for 2 nights whilst visiting family and I can't complain. The staff were amazing, Simona was incredibly accommodating and picked me an amazing meal on my first night because I couldn't decide what to have. The room is exactly what I needed, clean, comfortable and very reasonably priced for 2 nights. It's not luxurious, but who needs that? I don't go away to spend my time in a hotel room. I will definitely stay again, and recommended it to all of my friends in case they have visitors in Cardiff too. Thankyou.

Fantastic

Booked a twin room with my daughter.  The room was lovely, airy and roomy.  We was in cardiff to see Ed Sheeran and the hotel was on a lovely quiet road and only a 15 minute walk from the stadium.  Would definitely recommend.  Only downside was no breakfast available.

Lovely stay in Cardiff

I stayed in Elgano with a friend when we went to watch Bangladesh play England in the Cricket World Cup on June 8th 2019. The hotel literally backs onto Sophia Gardens. We selected Elgano precisely because it was that close and I have bad knees so I do not want to walk far. We couldn't have made a better decision, serendipity though it was. The small hotel does not have a lift but someone from the staff carried my bag upstairs.  The rooms were very nice - especially in comparison with the hotel we stayed near the Oval cricket ground in London. The bathrooms were clean and modern, the beds were perfect. But what really will stay in my mind forever is the friendliness of the staff. Staring with Simona at the top, to the chef, the waiters at the restaurant and rest of them were absolutely amazing.  I have seldom felt more at home at a hotel. And the restaurant was fabulous - I had a simple bowl of pasts but could not resist the tiramisu.  Then I saw Giuseppe the waiter walk by carrying a tray for another  table and I asked if that was Limoncello.  "Yes", said he, "want one"?  Of course said I.  He brought one and as he placed it on my table, he said "compliments of the house". Wonderful touch.  And I would have written this review even without the limoncello! Grazie Mille,Simona!

Like visiting your family

lovely welcome and stay,lovely clean, modern and comfortable room in coach house would highly recommend close to local bars and city centre thanks for great stay sorry didn't have time to sample restaurant

Took my darling wife for a early birthday dinner on Saturday. As usual the service and care from all the staff was first class. Sword fish was delicious! And the waiters sang 'Happy Birthday' with a specially made dessert. Thank you so much for a really superb evening.

Early Birthday Dinner

Very clean, modern and comfortable room with a nice view onto the restaurant rooftop and the back gardens. There was no lift but I got help with my suitcase on arrival. You can get to the city centre in 10 minutes by walking through the beautiful Bute Park, or get a bus close to the hotel. The nearby Pontcanna neighbourhood has lovely shops and cafés. I didn't get to try the restaurant on the ground floor but it was busy both nights of my stay, a good sign !

Great experience

Very friendly staff, lovely location. Stayed in the purpose built rooms in the back of the property. Nice size bed and bathroom, plenty tea and coffee more than you'd usually get. Only one little hiccup the hot water decided to stop working (it was working on the first night). Apart from that was a positive experience. If it wasn't for a cold shower it'd rate it higher.

Nice place to stay.

A lovely room, clean and fairly well equipped room Good restaurant attached.
BUT web site said breakfast with local suppliers - they no longer provide one. I feel I was mis sold.
Room needed a few extras like internet log in, non slip shower mat.
On road parking

Let down by web site

Stayed at the start of December, it wasn't in the actual hotel building itself it was in a separate building in the back courtyard which was accessible through the main dining room and conservatory. Out of hours there was a secure key gate and private walkway by the side of the hotel to go through. 
The room itself was clean and tidy. I stayed in a twin room which was perhaps a mistake as the duvet felt too small for the bed, although it would have been fine for a child, before you think it, yes I am medium build and height.
Shower and toilets were fine. Very trivial things, batteries on the remote control didn't work and low stock on the teas and coffee in the room.
Room was quiet other than being woken up by the bin lorry at 6.30am (Wednesday morning) but that wasn't the hotel fault.
Staff were friendly, I would stay again but just choose a different room next time.
