Crofts Hotel
Soundproofed family rooms with a games room downstairs
About this hotel
Crofts Hotel offers family rooms with private bathrooms, soundproofing and city views, plus in-room extras like a tea and coffee maker, free toiletries and a shower. Beyond the room itself, the property runs a sun terrace, garden, bar, lounge and a games room, useful for a rainy afternoon between pool sessions when a Welsh half-term rarely cooperates for two dry days running. A continental and full English or Irish breakfast is served each morning, with menus for special diets available. It sits 19 minutes from Cardiff University and 25 kilometres from Cardiff Airport, near Cardiff Castle and Cardiff Bay, and is highly rated for room cleanliness, staff support and comfort.
- Soundproofed rooms with city views
- Games room and lounge
- Sun terrace and garden
Our take
This suits families who want a family room with genuine soundproofing, useful with young kids who wake early, plus a games room for a wet-weather backup plan. The location is a reasonable drive from the centre rather than walkable, so it fits a car-based trip better than one relying on walking everywhere.
- ✓Use the games room on a rainy afternoon between pool sessions rather than forcing an outdoor activity in bad weather.
- ✓Ask for a room with city views if that matters to your stay, since not all rooms are configured the same way.
- ✓Confirm which breakfast options are available for any special diets in your family before your first morning.

Why guests love itThe soundproofing genuinely helped since our toddler wakes early and we didn't want to disturb the rest of the family in adjoining rooms. When a rainy afternoon hit halfway through our stay, the games room saved the day and kept everyone entertained without a second trip out in bad weather. The full English breakfast each morning set the kids up well before a long day of swimming.
