The 30 Best Pet friendly hotel in Cardiff

“Lovely hotel over looking the river Severn, the staff are welcoming and we even got offered a lift to the station from the owner. We stayed here as was far cheaper than Cardiff with Ed Sheeran in concert on and only a 15 minute train trip to the city centre. Yes we would definitely stay here again.”

“Recently stayed here for a weekend celebration. There were 9 of us in total. The hotel was in a great location. Extremely clean. Breakfast was great with plenty of choice. The staff were incredible. They went above and beyond to accommodate us. Thank you so much.”

“I like this hotel. The staff I encountered were friendly and helpful and, because I like dogs, I enjoyed seeing loads of them everywhere. Breakfast was good quality and plentiful. It’s true that the place is looking a little tired in places but it’s excellent value.”

“Absolutely outstanding service from John and Steven! From the moment we got there they were extremely accommodating. My moms disabled and I was a little apprehensive booking this property due to the accessibility but they went above and beyond to help my mom and make her comfortable. They are extremely welcoming, and the hotel was very homely. The views were amazing and the breakfast was top notch. Highly recommend staying here and we will be back very soon!”

“I love it! I stayed with my family over night and was perfect! Staff was so friendly when I asked for another pillow and the fact that the food was perfect! I would definitely recommend staying and stay again!”

“Stayed over 1 night as visiting Cwmbran. Lovely double bedroom Coffee/hot chocolate and tea available. Bathroom to a standard. If you add breakfast, dining area is very good. Only let down was that you had to have waitress service for hot drinks and cups were very small. Maybe provide a larger cup !!! Self service on break buffet. Cold drinks , juices, fruit, toast and jam available. It is best to ask for veggie sausages if you are veggie before breakfast starts, as not cooked in buffet selection.”

“Great location and easy to find parking. The staff here are lovely and attentive and we were made up to be 'guests of the day' Room was clean and bedsheets spotless, teabags do need to be changed to a decent brand though. Some parts of the hotel were tired and in need of repair such as leaking roof and broken lift, however the breakfast was excellent and our experience was amazing. I definitely will choose The Hilton again to stay during our next rugby match and what an honour to meet the Japan team. Thanks all you made me and my boys so happy x”

“I spent one night with a friend at Zip at the end of September 2025. We paid £26 for a twin room. The room was spotless, the facilities were nice, but the staff truly made the difference. From check-in to check-out, I felt cared for much better than in many other hotels. A special thanks to Mell for her kindness and valuable support at breakfast she really set the right mood for my day. It was unexpectedly surprising to find such kind and genuine people in a low-cost hotel.”

“Perfectly located, just outside of the city centre. Lovely host. Bargain price for an overnight stay in Cardiff. Thoroughly recommend.”

“Fantastic room clean tidy warm comfortable bed, toilet and shower clean and great pressure from the shower. Staff were brilliant from the time we arrived till we left. Breakfast was hot tasty and plenty to choose from. Excellent base to discover Cardiff”

“I liked my stay at Cardiff Marriott Hotel Everything was great, from the room and staff to the breakfast the food was very good and varied. The hotel's location was fantastic, right in the city center and surrounded by many vibrant areas.”

“The hotel is old and very cooky. The decor is random and old fashioned. It has wonderfully narrow corridors and massively high ceilings. The hotel is far from modern but it's absolutely charming and I loved it. The staff were wonderful and the location was great. Would stay again.”

“Had a pleasant 2 night stay here for the Oasis gig in Cardiff. The lady at reception on the day was so pleasant and friendly when we checked in. Rooms were comfy & airy for the hot July weather. I had left items behind in the hotel when we checked out, both Rachel & Georgia went above and beyond communicating via email about my lost items and posted them out to me again. The customer service was excellent and for that alone I would recommend this hotel. Thanks guys!”

“I travel a lot for work and have stopped in premier inns all around the country I have to say the service from staff was amazing, extremely friendly and attentive. The on site restaurant was great, you could tell the staff where aware and communicated back to the kitchen when to serve the next dish so you wasn't waiting long. Food was hot and freshly cooked, it really was the best premier inn I've stopped at for this couldn't fault staff and food that came out Great room (stopped in premier plus) some minor marks and wear to room but it's to be expected from a busy hotel, can't fault it today be honest Thank you for the great stay”

“My family and I stopped at the restaurant for drinks and food. This is a really nice place and the food was really nice. They have a good choice of drinks to choose from, and they had Murphy stout on draught. There is plenty of seating inside and out. The staff were really nice and friendly.”

“It is a very good place for an overnight stay or more. The staff is very good and supportive. This place has parking for 10 pounds only. Locality is just amazing and is very next to sophi park. Also, Cardiff castle is just 15 mins walk from here. There are good restaurants around this property and a grocery store is nearby as well.”

“I had a great stay, and it was made even better by the lovely service I got from one of your breakfast staff. Her name is Chung, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a nicer experience. She was polite, helpful, and really knowledgeable. Please pass on my thanks to her for giving me such a positive start to the day.”

“Our wedding at The Village Hotel was absolutely perfect from start to finish! The venue itself is beautiful, modern, and incredibly well-kept, creating the ideal backdrop for our special day. From the moment we booked, we felt completely supported and reassured. A huge thank you to Kieran and Sue, who went above and beyond to make everything run smoothly. Kieran’s professionalism, attention to detail, and calm approach kept us feeling relaxed throughout, while Sue’s warmth, friendliness, and endless patience made the planning process a joy. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them, and they truly made us feel like our day mattered just as much to them as it did to us. The food was fantastic, the staff were attentive and welcoming, and the whole atmosphere was perfect from beginning to end. We honestly couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks to The Village Hotel, and especially Kieran and Sue, for giving us memories we will cherish forever. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a flawless wedding venue!”

“Had a great night's sleep here on business. The staff at reception were polite and friendly. I was greeted by an Asian gentleman on arrival. He was very busy booking guests in, but still provided great customer service. The room was clean and tidy. The beefeater next door was fantastic for dinner and breakfast. Will be staying again.”

“Absolutely amazing I couldn’t be more happy me and my partner stayed here for 1 night wish we had booked more lovely and warm all around rooms are beautiful and tidy ! Customer service is outstanding ! Pool and jacuzzi are insane! Food is lovely cooked to perfection staff are so so friendly cleaners are On it all the time ! Best hotel in Cardiff by far ! Great location you have dominoes across the road ! Wish I could give this more than 5 stars so happy! The prices are great! Well worth the money we will be back soon”

“Good quiet budget hotel next to the water in Cardiff. Decent rooms with hairdryer, iron (and board!), kettle, decent shower. Breakfast is basic but for the price is fine. No marmite though, which I wasn't happy about. Decent sized carpark for £10 a night. Also a false fire alarm at 715 but that's not their fault - probably some idiot pushing a fire door or vaping in their room.”

“Local boozer with friendly staff and good beer prices. Filming location for Gavin and Stacey ( Christmas specials, stag do and christening)”

“Cant fault the staff or food. Staff are very polite and friendly. Food was well presented, tasted delicious and nice pipping hot. I admire your work. Xx”

“We have used this hotel several times now, they never let us down Lorraine always does her best to look after us”

“It's nicely placed for the visiting l am doing. Staff are very helpful. Rooms have everything we need and are clean”

“On arrival I was greeted by tricia who was so warm and kind she helped me with my bags and gave me directions to local restaurants the service here is great, rooms could do with a refurb”

“Really conveniently located hotel for the centre of Cardiff, with lovely desk staff who were super friendly and helpful. The room was pretty good but needed a deeper clean. The bed was comfortable and had clean linen on it. There were sockets with an extra USB A port on both sides of the bed. The car park is of a decent size but did fill up by the late evening so I would recommend checking in earlier if you're driving here. The hotel was generally very quiet, with all doors having soft closing hinges - no slamming doors! Overall, I would recommend staying here and will come back here when we are next in Central Cardiff.”

“We booked an early check-in however our room wasn't ready due to people before checking out late, we were given complimentary hot drink and also breakfast due to late check in. Kim is an absolute treasure she couldn't do enough and was very apologetic as we were staying there for a bereavement. Would definitely stay there again as good service is rare. Thankyou again Kim”

“Had a fabulous 2 night stay at this hotel. After initial hiccup (2nd floor + no lift + bad chest) this was resolved immediately and was put in a much larger closer room on the 1st floor. The staff couldn’t be nicer and more accommodating from the front desk to the cleaners to the housekeeping staff. Not modern but that suited me nicely. Brilliant location and more than value for money.”
