The Riverhouse

Went down for the Welsh rugby with my mate. Room was great, plenty of room and the beds were lovely. View was possibly the best in Cardiff, overlooking the river and the principality. Was about 5 showers with toilets , then another 5 toilets on their own which were always very clean. Would definitely recommend, considering the price was very reasonable too, will look to stay there again if I go back down to Cardiff.

Riverhouse is the so far the best simple hotel i have been to in the UK, Wales. The place is very clean, you don’t hesitate to use the bathroom without the slippers. The sheets, towels, and the rooms are excellent. I will book again whenever i am in Cardiff.

The rooms are very good and beds are comfortable and clean, Guest house is meticulously looked after, The house is very convenient for Cardiff City centre, train station and Castle attraction, located in a quite road with easy parking bays within the road

The Riverhouse is only a short walk from the castle and city centre. Though the family room is a bit small, the common area and kitchen were lovely. The hosts were accommodating and the check in process was a breeze! The car park is a short walk away and is easily accessible. Highly recommend!

Fabulous location, very helpful staff, clean and comfortable rooms at a very reasonable price - what is not to like? The mornng breakfast was very reasonably priced and plentiful. Very happy with the extended stay there. A place was needed close to univeristy to finish off my degree - it worked beautifully with a very easy walk into town.

The Riverhouse is a great value for its location and price. The internet was fantastic. I am a remote worker so fast internet is an absolute necessity. The owners are responsive and friendly. The breakfast was well-appointed with selections including oatmeal, cereal, yogurt, and fresh fruit (for an additional price). Conversely, the correction of a few annoyances would have improved my experience. Specialty coffee was available during breakfast, but only for guests who purchased the breakfast add-on. I highly recommend slightly increasing the price of the room to include this amenity 24/7 to eliminat e confusion because it did cause conflicts with some of the guests, even though the breakfast purchase requirement was clearly marked. The "desk" could not accommodate my laptop. A shelf was placed so I could only open my laptop if I moved to the far side of the desk, making typing almost impossible. I was on the third floor (no elevator) and had to go to the dining area when I wanted to work. Additionally, I have long hair and was provided a single towel and no washcloth. Finally, the lights were on a motion detector. The light would turn off in the shared bathroom almost immediately after sitting on the toilet. An additional lighting problem occurred on the multiple-level staircase. Frequently, I would have to be halfway down the stairs to the lower or higher floor before the lights would come on.
