Fodor's Expert Review Maltsters' Arms Hotel

This pub has spent a small fortune renovating its superb bedrooms, which combine cool design and true comfort. They come equipped with state-of-the-art entertainment systems (you can even watch your plasma TV from your bath). The downstairs bar is warm, welcoming, and serves real ale and decent food, including a very popular carvery (roast buffet lunch) on Sunday. The hotel is just a mile from the city center in Llandaff, which has a village atmosphere.
