Austins Guest House

Austins Guest House

📍 11 Coldstream Terrace, Riverside
★★★ 7.4 (52 reviews)

"The check-in, check out process is automatic using a code. There isn't anyone around that you can reach when you need. The check-out time is 10:00 AM and if you're outside at that time you cannot re-enter to the building or your room if you were at the toilet, shower etc at 10:00. Sent e-mails through trip.com as well as to their regular e-mails address never got replies. There is no chance of leaving your bag if you'd like to discover the city, I had to carry my luggage with me all day after check-out and got soaked because of the rain together with my luggage. In my second visit, by paying a double of what I paid here I stayed at Marriott and worth every penny."

3 Luxury En-suite Bedrooms ★★★
"I'm not very good at English, but the landlord was very welcoming and even gave me chocolates. The room was perfect, with an electric heater, complimentary coffee, cookies, and tea, and the mattress was very comfortable. Everything was clean and comfortable. It's only a seven-minute bus ride from the train station. And the price was reasonable too! I really loved this place!"

Austins Guest House ★★★
"The location is very convenient for central Cardiff, stadium railway etc. the property itself was not the one shown in the advert as they run several properties in the local area. The bathrooms were clean but my room was tired and had stains and broken blinds. The heating was either on or off as the controls were not self explanatory. Having stayed in many cities for what you get I felt the price was very high."

Elgano Guest House ★★★
"I stayed here for 2 nights whilst visiting family and I can't complain. The staff were amazing, Simona was incredibly accommodating and picked me an amazing meal on my first night because I couldn't decide what to have. The room is exactly what I needed, clean, comfortable and very reasonably priced for 2 nights. It's not luxurious, but who needs that? I don't go away to spend my time in a hotel room. I will definitely stay again, and recommended it to all of my friends in case they have visitors in Cardiff too. Thankyou."

"Good location about 5 minutes walk from Cardiff Central station. The room is small but big enough for sleeping. Cleaning once every 2 days. Amenity does not have toothpaste set. On the last day, the cleaning lady took my towel that was drying in the room by mistake. At one point, I wondered what would happen, but he kindly searched for me from among a large number of dry cleaners. Overall, customer service is a good impression."

Central Studios ★★★
"Location to public transport and local attractions was convenient. The accommodation was comfortable but it would have been better if there was a floor plan where the rooms are located as only 3 rooms were on the main floor and the others were accessible via stairs, which are narrow. Our room was outside the main house in the back. If you are travelling with lots of luggage or big, heavy suitcases, be mindful that there are no lifts. Housekeeping was a bit disappointing. Modern fittings and energy saving features were a plus."
