Great value, comfortable room in a great location for the city.
Great value for money - lovely room with big bay window overlooking Cathedral Road.
Convenient for the city
Little details like coffee making, shampoo; nice towels and a hot shower make a big difference.
The only issue was that the bedroom radiator did not heat up in the morning so the bedroom was quite cold although the bathroom rail was nice and hot.

Convenient and reasonably priced
Nicely decorated room in the Coach House ie not in the main restaurant building but at the back of the garden. Good location on Cathedral Rd. Modern walk in shower. Reasonably priced for what it is.
Could hear the people walking/using facilities in the rooms above as well as deliveries to the restaurant in the morning. Slight musty smell probably because the shower and separate toilet had been built into the room. No breakfast on offer. And no signal, so don't forget to ask for wifi code which I unfortunately did.

Great people, clean rooms, great vibes!
Loved how homey the guest house felt. It had the exact vibe I was going for - in between a hotel and a b&b. Rooms were lovely, bed was very comfy and bathroom was excellent! There's a little TV in the room too which had all the usual streaming sites: netflix, amazon prime etc. I was able to watch my fave shows when I'd come back from a day out.
They don't serve breakfast but there was a cafe about a 15 minute walk away called quantum cafe which had the loveliest staff and the nicest english breakfast. Would definitely recommend for breakfast!
I tried the restaurant while there and was very pleased by the service and quality of food. I had the calamari as a starter and the pepperoni pizza for a main, with a fruity cocktail for my drink. Really really good portion sizes and I was so full once finished. Staff were very lovely and nice throughout the evening.
Location was great as well, about a two minute walk from Bute Park, 10 minutes from Cardiff Castle and the town centre, and a 25 minute walk from Cardiff Central. I was able to pretty much walk everywhere I wanted to which was super convenient for me as I wanted to explore on foot. I was able to get a water taxi (boat) from Bute Park to Cardiff Bay which was stunning! Would definitely recommend spending half a day there if you're free.
Checking in was simple, I was given a key and shown my room. The guest house is owned by I think a family of Italians, who are very nice and welcoming! Checking out was also very easy, I simply put my key in a box at the front as I was leaving.
I 100% would recommend a stay here, I can't fault it at all and will definitely be coming back in the future!
Everything was superb! Can't fault anything. My room was on the top floor so I was getting a lot of steps in haha but that's not a bad thing. It does sometimes feel like there isn't anyone about in the guest house but the staff are usually downstairs in the restaurant area prepping for the day.

Nice place to stay
Location was great. Close to the park and city center, and love Cathedral Road. The room was clean, comfortable, quiet, nicely decorated. I didn’t have much interaction with staff but the little I did was pleasant.

Brief stay but I would stay here again.
I only used the room for a place to stay after a concert and left early in the morning. However, the room itself was nicely furnished and decorated. It was also very clean and tidy with all that I expected from a hotel e.g. toiletries, tea/coffee etc.

Just perfect! Thank you very much.
This was a perfect place to stay for my son’s graduation the following day. 10 minute walk to the shops and castle. Lovely Sofia gardens 2 minutes around the corner. Gorgeous very modern and cosy bedroom (number 10) and superb Italian restaurant and such lovely staff.
I couldn’t fault this place. I will always stay here when visiting Cardiff from now on. Thank you so much.

Lovely as always
Great service, as always. The location is one of the best in town for access to parks, the city, and decent pubs. The restaurant was very busy on this Tuesday night. Got to mean something.
Went to an old haunt, formerly the Cayo Arms, now the Pontcanna Inn. Trip down memory lane frankly. But they didn't take cash so I didn't stay and won't go back. Went to the Beverly across the road and the Halfway who do take cash

Comfortable great location with ease for town and transport links
Having stayed at elegano before I was expecting more of the same and wasn’t disappointed it is ideally located close to town and to the coach station which I was using to get to Stanstead, the room was comfortable well equipped and I would absolutely stay again, you are able to come and go as you please with a key to the front door of the property, also make sure to use the restaurant as it’s amazing and very well priced for the quality might be worth booking ahead as it is busy
Everything met my needs

Lovely guest house in a very nice neighbourhood
The property located in a very nice neighbourhood. Walking to the Uni cross the Bute Park was very lovely.
There was no place to properly work (such as a desk + a chair) in the room.

Excellent accommodation and restaurant, perfect location for Sophia Gardens
I was in a room in the building behind the restaurant. For a single room it was a big size! It felt rustic yet modern - really nice. Huge walk-in shower. Big comfy bed. Warm and friendly service from all the staff. Free WiFi had fantastic speed. Perfect location for Sophia Gardens. Excellent value for money. The restaurant is superb, delicious food and speedy service. Highly recommend dining here, lucky to get the only table available (I should've booked ahead!)
Could hear the water system often, almost like every time someone used it (toilet, sink, shower) in the property, I knew about it - sounds of water running / refilling from my bathroom. Sink also leaked when any amount of water was in the basin.

Lovely facilities but make sure you get a room at the back if you want to sleep!
Location is excellent, close to city centre.
My room, number 4, was fine in itself - big, light, good en suite shower room, generally very comfortable. However it was at the front of the property overlooking a very busy road, and the windows are single glazed. I was regularly woken throughout the night by passing traffic.
