We booked a couple of rooms for a family get-together in Cardiff at the hotel and we had a wonderful time. The rooms are really nicely decorated, extremely clean and comfortable. We have all stayed in more expensive places that were not as good.

Breakfast was excellent - very good quality bacon, eggs, good choice of cereals - we loved the bone china and the friendly service - they really need extra marks for the service - my nephew is gluten-free and they were able to provide him with cereal and a cooked breakfast with no fuss whatsoever.

In all, the people who run the hotel made us feel very welcome and relaxed - a real personal touch sadly lacking from a lot of 'big name' hotels, in fact, we had some very nice chats with the host about Cardiff and how it has changed over the recent years. He also recommended a really excellent Indian restaurant to us as well.

We have already arranged to come back in the future and are happy to recommend the hotel.

An excellent establishment.

I travel with work a lot and found this fantastic gem from reading various reviews. It is a lovely, family-run small hotel with a good range of rooms. I have been staying on and off for a few months, Mon - Fri and then coming home on weekends. The rooms are always impeccably clean and comfortable, with cheaper rooms or larger en suite rooms on offer . The Owner/Manager is never less than friendly, helpful and obliging and good at recommending places to eat, go out, etc. They offer free wifi and free parking (which is a change from larger chain-style hotels who tend to charge for such services in my experience!)

My wife and young son have come down twice to stay with me over the weekend and we have had lovely stays exploring Cardiff and the locality - we stayed in one of the larger family rooms and had a very comfortable stay in their modern and tastefully decorated rooms (which contrast nicely with the Victorian exterior)

Breakfast is always great - freshly cooked and nicely served, though I tend not to mange a full cooked breakfast everyday, but opt for toast, fruit and cereal

I am very happy to call my self a regular customer and Tane's Hotel is always on my list when I am visiting Cardiff.

Keep up the good work!!

Family of four stayed on a Saturday night after watching a stand-up gig in town. Proprietor just the right side of friendly, and inside the place is spick and span - no shabby carpets or peeling wallpaper, everywhere clean. The signage and fire doors and dark-stain architraving makes it a little institutional inside perhaps, but then these places have so many regulations to meet that it is not surprising that a large Victorian converted house isn't going to be as swish as a modern place. Our shower (very top floor) was a little feeble, but a minor criticism. Traffic from main road outside a little intrusive, but then we aren't used to city dwelling - and there's always earplugs. Truly excellent brekkers at very modest additional cost, served by friendly staff. Well done Mr Tane.

First appearances are there isn't a car park but if you turn into the street after the hotel (the hotel being on your left) you can take the next left and it leads down to a car park for the hotel. Big enough for 5 or 6 cars I think so plenty.

The garden looks like a bomb has hit it because they have kids but it's a family run place so what do you expect? From the car park you have to walk round the front which is signposted through the garden.

Entry is via a doorbell and the lovely lady greeted us with a big friendly smile, she explained what time breakfast was, was it too early, how to get in and out of the hotel with the relevant keys and how to contact them if they are needed. Very informative and friendly. There isn't a lift and we were on the top floor, the stairs aren't too much of a problem but if you were staying a week then they may well cause you trouble taking suitcases up.

The room itself was modern which I like, chocolate and cream decor and canvas art on the wall (my favourite so gets a big brownie point for that). Bathroom is adequate size but the shower took forever to get some heat and it was bust and wouldn't sit properly in the holder. managed to have a fairly decent shower though. Plenty of toilet roll which was a bonus because in the past in other hotels we always seem to run out! The bed was comfortable with plenty of pillows and cushions. Room had a skylight which is a nice touch, the roof slants but no banging heads and I'm fairly tall. Plenty of tea, coffee, sugar, milk in the room. We were facing the main road and even though we had the window open we weren't disturbed with sleep.


Breakfast was plentiful - cereal to begin with, then a full cooked english, plus toast and jams. Pot of tea was lovely and we got plenty of cups of tea out of the pot. Everything was cooked to perfection and was hot. Lovely lady who served breakfast too.

The walk in to the city centre took approximately 10 minutes but we weren't rushing - Until we saw a pub :)

All in all a good place to stay and close to everything you need.
