Top hotels in Duffryn
The Angel Hotel
Room was ok, after reading reviews about the breakfast, it was a bit disappointing with the bacon , tomatoes, sausage being precooked and very dry, There was not menu people for breakfast and could have been grilled fresh and waited a bit longer to be served.

Cardiff Marriott Hotel
Reception very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, but an extra chair in the room would be better, as it was a King room, not single.
