Staff friendly and helpful. ##### Wendy Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Vicky 7 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, communication #### Don't be put off by the location This place is great for an over nighter. Stayed here to watch the rugby. The location is rundown and not very inviting but once you are in, it's clean and does the job. ##### Vicky Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kyle 24 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, room comfort, communication For student accommodation, the place is great, and it’s value is second to none. Likewise the staff were friendly and great to deal with. However, is a 20 minute walk to the city center, and isn’t in the greatest area. Giving it 5 stars as it’s better than expected and considering the price of hotels at the time due to the billy joel concert, a clean bed and ensuite for that price is incredible. However if staying in the future when hotel prives aren’t through the roof, would stay elsewhere in cardiff ##### Kyle Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Steph 20 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Property itself was nice, clean and great facilities. Would have loved my uni galls to be as nice as they were. We were in the ground floor and there was a noticeable smell of drains when we arrived. Area the property is in is very dirty. Litter everywhere! And just seemed grotty. ##### Steph Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, communication #### Honestly… Well mainly 3 things 1\. Mattress isn’t comfortable at all. Definitely needs change. 2\. People make noises or too loud arguing in corridor around mid night. There should Be rules not to bother others 3\. Staff is kind and good, place is amazing from near by bustop weatherspoon supermarket , it’s neat ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ralph 2 Aug 2023 Liked: Communication Disliked: Cleanliness #### Recommended, but avoid the ground floor... Property is off term student residence (although there are still plenty of students about...). Second floor room was good, but ground floor suffered from noise from the front of hge building so windows couldn't be left open. Biggest issue was the mad wooden construction at the top of the bed - total H&S issue - brained myself on the sharp corner a couple of times - GET THAT TRIMMED OFF!! Reasonable location for access to the city centre, no site parking, but plenty of on street in the local, reasonable eateries acailable (the Lebanon was superb!!). Would recommed, although try to avoid the ground floor. ![The dreaded sharp corner!!](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7E0A77EDDB6AE5C09FBA28E5D726AC461209E4981690965813941.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ralph Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Barney 22 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication This is student accommodation - so that needs to be taken into account. It was also cheap - which is great!! If you accept that it's a student hall - albeit new and tidy/ clean and basic, then it's great. I was down to watch the rugby and it was perfect for that. The area isn't terrible, but it is a student area, so a bit noisy on a Saturday night at 2:30am. Big downside is no parking on site. Having said that, you can park within a few minutes walk. And it's really convenient for the city centre, and an easy walk. Overall - great value for money, good towels, clean, free pool and a vending machine on site. My room had a fridge, micro/convection oven/ sink etc - as it's self catering student accommodation. Would I go again - yes. ##### Barney Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Amirtharaj 6 Aug 2023 #### Good, but need few improvements! I stayed in this property for two weeks as a interim stay while moving apartments. The room itself was clean, with ample storage area, work desk and the people working were friendly and responsive. Few things to mention were that the nights were really noisy from few of the neighbours and the loud banging of doors when people walk in and out of their rooms. I would not blame it on the guests but on the design of the doors closing behind. Also there was no scheduled cleaning of the room as mentioned during check in.Could not keep the windows open at night because loud noises made by the seagulls around which I think is not in the properties control. Think the property is taking all the effort for accommodate more people as hotel guests! ##### Amirtharaj Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Everything we needed for a comfy stay Private, quiet, clean, and perfectly suited to our independent travel style.

A Walks Away from Cardiff Central. Pleasantly surprised. Would Stay Again. Very good value for the length of stay. Around the corner from the local shop/eateries and short walk away to central Cardiff/train station. Our studio room was on the ground floor at the front-so had some noise in the morning from the seagulls! but also the local sunday church singing which we enjoyed! The studio room had what we needed-bed was a bit too hard. Had to initially clean the room as they’d had a few managerial issues. There was also the laundry room, pool table/entertainment and outdoor space. Staff were helpful with any extras like a kettle/ cutlery/iron etc. ##### Tia Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine 26 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great experience, clean property and excellent reception.

My check in was friendly and helpful. Especially regarding parking arrangements that were well advised and assisted. The room was clean and practical. It suited my needs perfectly for an overnight stay. Huge value for money given some of the more expensive options offered less in terms of the positives outlined above! ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 31 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Pleasantly surprise First time we’ve stayed here and was pleasantly surprised. Easy to book. It was clean and staff were helpful. Good value for money as we only needed a bed for the night and shower and team making facilities. Was a little loud at times at night. Overall good. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Marcela 30 Aug 2023 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The property needed more cleaning ##### Marcela Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Kathryn 21 Aug 2023 Brilliant ##### Kathryn Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Soyeb 12 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Good ##### Soyeb Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Maneice 6 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Very Good The stay at Arofan House was very good. I can fault the place. The only discomforts were that the pillows were too soft/flat and that the sink in the bathroom was clogged ( water leaked away slowly). This was reported but didn't get fixed before we left as we left the day after it was reported. Easy to commute to toen centre and other places ##### Maneice Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cardiff University, Senghennydd Hall - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-University.h30551441.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Cardiff by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Cardiff.h18575463.Hotel-Information) > > [Caxton Place by Tŷ SA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Caxton-Place-By-Ty-SA.h95463199.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardiff Sandringham Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-Sandringham-Hotel.h900564.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardiff Metropolitan University, Plas Gwyn Halls - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-Metropolitan-University.h30551499.Hotel-Information) > > [Tŷ Newport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Ty-Hotel-Newport.h96787676.Hotel-Information) > > [New Inn Hotel by Greene King Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-New-Inn-Hotel-By-Greene-King-Inns.h11900845.Hotel-Information) > > [The Parkgate Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Parkgate-Hotel.h66262736.Hotel-Information) > > [Newport Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Newport-Lodge.h60677004.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Hotel Cardiff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel-Cardiff.h1291503.Hotel-Information) > > [Canada Lodge and Lake](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Canada-Lodge-And-Lake.h36839644.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel Cardiff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Cardiff.h4254642.Hotel-Information) > > [Llechwen Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Llechwen-Hall-Hotel.h4035488.Hotel-Information) > > [Kensington Place Newport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Kensington-Place-Newport.h36659590.Hotel-Information) > > [Citrus Hotel Cardiff by Compass Hospitality](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Citrus-Hotel-Cardiff-By-Compass-Hospitality.h520199.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza Cardiff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Park-Plaza-Cardiff.h1240563.Hotel-Information) > > [Clive Lodge Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Clive-Lodge-Apartments.h48606194.Hotel-Information) > > [The Angel Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Angel-Hotel.h34843.Hotel-Information) > > [The Coach & Horses Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Coach-Horses-Inn.h6419637.Hotel-Information) > > [Lanelay Hall Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Lanelay-Hall-Hotel-Spa.h19385738.Hotel-Information) > > [Modern Studio apt Near Bay & City With Parking](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Modern-Studio-Apt-Near-Bay-City-With-Parking.h48401088.Hotel-Information) > > [Coldra Court Hotel by Celtic Manor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Coldra-Court-Hotel-By-Celtic-Manor.h542557.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Cardiff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-Cardiff.h876498.Hotel-Information) > > [Stay In Cardiff Crichton House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Stay-In-Cardiff-Crichton-House.h45022773.Hotel-Information) > > [Executive Apartment Cardiff City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Executive-Apartment-Cardiff-City-Centre.h45052716.Hotel-Information) > > [Belvilla Newport City Centre Hotel - Lifestyle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Silurian-Hotel.h69221774.Hotel-Information) > > [Future Inns Cardiff Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Future-Inns-Cardiff-Bay.h1160305.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardiff University, Talybont Gate Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-University.h30551505.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Cardiff - North M4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Cardiff-North-M4.h9720.Hotel-Information) ---
