“The Angel's Victorian bones, opposite Principality Stadium, give it an undeniable presence in central Cardiff. Its position allows you to explore nearby arcades for shopping and dining, along with cultural hotspots like Cardiff Castle. I think its location and historical charm make it a solid choice, particularly if you're looking for a bit of old-world character.”

I found the staff very helpful. They provided quick assistance with directions. the hotel has a grand stairway that is great for photos. the bar and restaurant were nice additions!
the windows are old and do not properly block out the cold from the street. i had to use the curtain and blinder completely rolled up on the window to prevent the cold from entering the room.
