Good value for money
I stayed for one night in a twin room. The room was large and well equipped. The bedroom and en suite bathroom were clean. The bed was comfortable.
Every single member of staff was friendly.
Overall, I felt The Angel offered excellent value for money, the location is a real selling point.

Disappointing stay.
Booked a double room for one night. Shower drain blocked, grubby curtains, dirty radiator, no bedside lamps, room smelt musty. Breakfast OK. Won't book again, very disappointed. Complained after stay, had a dismissive apology from reception. Just not good enough.

Great staff. Good location.
Good location, excellent staff. The hotel looks dated and could do with redecoration/refurbishment to bring it up to modern standards.

Great staff
My daughter and I stayed for one night on our way to visit Cardiff Uni . The location was great for the city centre and shops .
Room was basic but very clean and we had a very small issue with our toilet flush that was fixed immediately. Our room was opposite the castle and so was on quite a busy road that made it quite noisy, however the staff were all amazing, breakfast was great and so I would definitely stay again, although I would probably see if there is a quieter room available and bring ear plugs .

Expensive for a hotel that needs a massive makeove
Bed was comfy, room appeared clean however extremely outdated. Cold with no heating, appeared to be single glazing, bathroom was a state. Side of the bath was water damaged. Doors all chipped. Not all the lights in the room worked. For the price I wouldn’t recommend or stay again.

Fine for an overnight stay.
Good base to stay while in Cardiff. Impressive foyer, helpful reception staff. Can’t comment on bar or restaurant as we didn’t use them. Nice room, spacious but a bit dated and bathroom was cold from the single glazed windows. Nice quiet location but some noise from air con/kitchen vents.
Large but very springy bed!
