Easy place to find and access. Room comfortable and warm. Bathrooms were plentiful and so there was never a wait. Kitchen area was a pleasant place to meet other people staying at the accommodation.

What an absolute gem of a place. 2 nights for the rugby. Couldn’t have been any better placed for the game, the train station and the bright lights of the city…Facilities were great with secure access, luxurious bathroom pods and family-feel breakfast area and well-stocked kitchen. Definitely going back!!

I often go to Cardiff on my own, and always stay at the Riverhouse. This time, I took my Brother with me and we stayed in a top room with 2 beds. The Hostel is clean, convenient and comfortable. The only thing they could use are more hooks in the rooms (perhaps on the back of the Door), and in the Loos ;).

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 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!
