Lovely room, great location - short walk to the seafront. Easy to park just for an overnight stay. The only issue was the water pipes making a lot of noise for a short while while i was trying to get to sleep.
Above an Italian restaurant this older establishment has been converted into hotel rooms. A small room which included a double bed, a toilet, shower and hand basin. The wardrobe was an alcove. Adequate despite being on the top floor and no lift.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Clean room with very comfortable bed but tired room decor and furniture, and essentials like loo brush, soap or bins in bathroom missing. But, very lovely restaurant below with great atmosphere and amazing authentic pizzas and pastas
Very basic room, which is dated. Lots of stairs to get to room which are steep. No communication from staff. Water in shower not great.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was spotless with new fixtures and fittings. Staff were friendly and accomodating. There is a bar and a breakfast room. The room was quiet and the double bed was roomy.
We were on the 2nd floor so a little tricky getting up with suitcases etc.
Great to be able to have a reasonably priced single room on a busy weekend for the hotel.

Good location for train station and local walks; you can walk into Cardiff via the Cardiff Barrage walkway.
Basic hotel with clean bed linen, (small) bath towels and plenty of hot water for a bath!
I stay at the Glendale regularly to visit my daughter and granddaughter who live nearby. It is a lovely hotel above an Italian restaurant with very convenient access to Penarth train station with regular trains into nearby Cardiff.
It has both single and double size rooms and I usually choose a single. The rooms are well appointed with rather basic shower facilities, tea & coffee etc. a very nice full cooked English breakfast is available (extra) and of course there is the very convenient excellent restaurant downstairs. The owner/manager is very friendly and chatty.
What a lovely little hotel. We arrived quite late on a Saturday and we're welcomed by the friendly owner. Our room was clean and comfortable with a cute, old fashioned door key. We had a drink in the bar but didn't eat in the restaurant, although it did look lovely.
