Pontcanna Inn Pontcanna, Cardiff, CF11 9LL

  • 10 bedrooms

Close to Sophia Gardens, the University and Castle

Pontcanna Inn offers the best of both sides of Cardiff: the energy of the Welsh capital and some of its loveliest green spaces within a few minutes’ walk. Upstairs are 10 comfortable boutique bedrooms, while downstairs you will find a lively neighbourhood pub serving seasonal food, local beers, cask ales and cocktails. With Sophia Gardens and Bute Park close by and Cardiff Castle and the Principality Stadium within walking distance, it makes an excellent choice for city breaks, sporting weekends and work trips. Food is reassuringly pub-like, with comforting classics and crowd-pleasing favourites. When the sun comes out, the garden becomes a natural gathering place, with pizzas firing and live sport shown on outdoor as well as indoor screens.
