This was not our first stay at the hotel and the fact that we return year upon year gives you some idea of how good we think this hotel is. From the moment you arrive to the point of departure the willingness of the staff to make everything a good experience is paramount. Good food, clean accommodation makes this 'simply... More

The guest house was reasonably tidy when we arrived however when we returned from a tiring day of work the following day we found that the heating was switched off and there was no management actually staying within the guest house or any way to get hold of them! Breakfast was sub standard to say the least; after having paid... More

Booked into the Church Townhouse with two old schoolfriends who are also celebrating their 50th birthdays this year. We were going to see Take That in Cardiff so needed overnight accommodation. Our room was filthy, particularly the en-suite which had a toilet brush and holder which was see-through and full of faeces. We had to cover it over so as... More

Detritus from previous occupants was left in the room, including food and drink. The mugs for making tea/coffee were not properly washed up. There was a layer of dust on surfaces, the carpet was strewn with bits and there was cigarette ash on the toilet pan. The only evidence that staff had visited the room before I checked in was...

The main problem was that the room was dirty - half a cup of white wine was left behind from previous occupants and there was food (chips!) left in the top drawers of two of the cupboards. The bin was filthy - it had dirt and rubbish welded to the inside of it. The room had not been vacuumed -... More

Spent a week-end in Church Guest House, 126 Cathedral Rd Cardiff. Truly awful experience, the toilet, shower and bed linen were all filthy. Bedrooms were very cold and the beds were damp. It is also a fire hazard, the "fire doors" have clearly been fitted onto ordinary door frames, and the result is, they don't fit properly, getting the bedroom... More
