Top Cardiff Hotel Reviews

Cardiff Bute Terrace Hotel By Belvilla

Cardiff Bute Terrace Hotel By Belvilla

8/10 Good
"Hotel although on the outside doesn't look very inspiring is near to Cardiff city centre and handy for shops and attractions. The room we had was spacious and suited our purpose. The hotel is in the middle of an upgrade and our room looked like it had recently been decorated and had new carpet. We were at a concert so didn't spend much time in the room. But the beds were comfortable. All the staff we had dealings with were very friendly and helpful. Meena on reception in particular was very helpful and patient when I couldn't get the room door open. The takeaway breakfast which was complementary was a nice touch."
