2 couples stayed in this hotel. Quiet pleasant. Our room was not too big but for what we spent in it was enough! The other room was bigger and had a little terrace. There is a nice lounge downstairs. The staff were very friendly. The coocked breakfast was very nice. 20 mints walk from the centre. Plenty of space to... More

Preste Gaarden is run by a friendly couple. They were welcoming and offered info about the area on arrival. The rooms are pleasantly decorated, with style and taste considered. It looks like the couple really care about their hotel. They had a lovely lounge downstairs with a Christmas Tree already up. The place was nice and quiet to get a... More

The owner was so friendly and willing to help as much as possible and the room we had at the back of the property had its own balcony but due to the weather we... More

We were after a hotel that was within our student budget and after calling by phone got ourself a lovely deal on a room. We arrived early in the morning and was greeted by the owner who welcomed us in, offering us toast, tea and orange juice whilst his wife was arranging our check-in. As we arrived early our rooms...

The room rate had been increased because the rugby was in, but we weren't in Cardiff for the rugby, so that was slightly annoying. When we arrived, we were told that the best room in the hotel, which I had been told I was booking when I made my reservation, had been given to someone else in error. We were... More

I enjoyed a wonderful week with my son in the Preste Gaarden hotel. I must admit I had reservations(pardon the pun) when after booking, I read some of the reviews posted here. No doubt , I could nit-pick over areas that might need decoration or have become 'run-down', but I could not fault the cleaning staff's efforts. John is a... More

We stayed for 1 week at Preste Garden. We were very pleased with the rooms. The breakfasts were traditional english breakfasts with toast, marmelade, tee or coffee, also a hot menu with bacon and eggs etc. The service is excellent, it's like beeing home, but away... We even got help with how to get to Roath Park, if you like... More
