What guests think
At The Tadross, travellers describe a budget, pub-style stay with very friendly staff and generally clean, basic rooms, but with noticeable variability in comfort and upkeep, including worn areas, maintenance niggles, and occasional cleanliness lapses.
Rooms are often spacious for the price, though bed comfort is mixed and weekend noise from the bar or street can disturb light sleepers. Several reviews note weak or unreliable Wi‑Fi and underpowered showers. The location works well for Barry or trips into Cardiff, with the rail station reported as easy to reach. Best suited to unfussy travellers comfortable with trade‑offs in comfort and amenities.

Clean and tidy rooms. Fast check in and key to let yourself in if returning late. Saturday night noise from the venue below and later in the street outside that woke us up was the only issue and not the fault of the hotel.

You get what you pay for, but couldn’t grumble with the room it was clean and tidy and what I can gather the rooms out the back are better than in the hotel. It was perfect to get your head down for the night and a cheeky pint before heading out for the night.

The Tadross Hotel was very good and great value for money, the people were very friendly. If you like staying in a pub type establishment and are not expecting 5 stars then this is definitely the best in Barry.

Lovely staff but accommodation could do with a little TLC. Very basic room that needed an uplift. Curtain over door was hanging off and it was cold despite there being heaters in the room.

Don’t be put off by what it looks like outside. It’s a social club that’s tired and a little shabby with rubbish etc outside. BUT, the staff are very nice and helpful and the room (separate building by the car park) was very clean and comfortable, albeit in need of a little TLC (curtains handing down). I have paid a lot more for a far worse room in other places and for what we paid I think it was absolutely fine and for be night, would use it again. Plus, although a club, very little noise.

This hotel was above a pub, so wasn't expecting much. On arrival we were greatest with a friendly guy and had a nice chat. Told him we were staying for the Gavin and Stacey tour, to this point he then divulged that the Christmas special was actually filmed there! We were showed to our room. Everything was very clean and tidy and had fresh towels in the room. I couldn't fault the look of the room, however the bed was the most uncomfortable I've slept in. I do however have arthritis and am used to an Emma mattress. This was the only fault we could find. I know if I'd have said something the staff would have changed it immediately as they were that helpful. We were only there for 1 night so didn't make a fuss. We visited the pub in the evening and the locals had saved a table for us, as it had featured in Gavin and Stacey, which was a lovely touch. Overall, I'd stay again. The staff were lovely and the accomodation was clean.

The room is very basic, but to be expected for that price. The bed in room 2 is awful. Super uncomfortable, was like sleeping on springs. The towel holder fell off the wall when I tried to use it. The carpets could do with a good clean. Very quiet, which was great.

The Hotel will need some refurbishment and investment. However the room was clean and tidy, bed linen clean and ironed and towels clean. Staff lovely and friendly. Ideal location for an out of Cardiff location . We went to a concert so it was ideal. Would also recommend A2Z taxi service. Well done Barry, nice to see you

The room itself was ok. It is not luxurious but will do for the night. Needed a deep clean and a new mattress but it was perfectly acceptable for a night. The banister leading up to the top floor well I wouldn’t touch it and not had anyone else in months and someone had written “clean me” on the top floor which hadn’t been cleaned. But for a night it’s acceptable. The staff very very welcoming and friendly.

This hotel was above a pub, so wasn't expecting much. On arrival we were greatest with a friendly guy and had a nice chat. Told him we were staying for the Gavin and Stacey tour, to this point he then divulged that the Christmas special was actually filmed there! We were showed to our room. Everything was very clean and tidy and had fresh towels in the room. I couldn't fault the look of the room, however the bed was the most uncomfortable I've slept in. I do however have arthritis and am used to an Emma mattress. This was the only fault we could find. I know if I'd have said something the staff would have changed it immediately as they were that helpful. We were only there for 1 night so didn't make a fuss. We visited the pub in the evening and the locals had saved a table for us, as it had featured in Gavin and Stacey, which was a lovely touch. Overall, I'd stay again.

We had a double room on the second floor booke for 2 nights. Ensuite, double bed, TV clean. There were no wardrobes but an alcove with two coat hangers. Staff very friendly and offered to carry bags up stairs. I said we could do with a few more hangers, and within minutes she was at the door with more. I asked if we could have a couple of chairs and within minutes they were provided, Tea and coffee provided but no kitchen facilities. We were told they nearly never survived Covid and justgetting back on their feet. Welcome to purchase food several takeaways local and bar staff provide clean crockery and eating utensils. They even opened up the lounge for us so we hade somewhere quiet to eat. Bar staff friendly, prices reasonable, £4 a pint. We were made to feel welcome and at home, they waved us goodbye. It is budget but warm clean friendly, locals too. We would stay a gain good value.

Staff friendly our annex was ok had damp in it the hotel/ pub not so nice the locals made it very clear that you wasn’t welcome all we wanted was a quick drink but was told we couldn’t sit anywhere in the pub so it was best we left if we hadn’t gone especially for our daughters birthday and drove 5 hrs to get there we would of gone straight home

The Hotel will need some refurbishment and investment. However the room was clean and tidy, bed linen clean and ironed and towels clean. Staff lovely and friendly. Ideal location for an out of Cardiff location . We went to a concert so it was ideal. Would also recommend A2Z taxi service. Well done Barry, nice to see you

Had a good stay here, we wanted to stay as the pub is used in Gavin and Stacey, me and my son are big fans, for the price we paid i cant complain, yes the room was basic, but it was fine, we had a twin room, double bed was ok but the single was not comfy, very friendly staff who we met there and a gorgeous cat Norma, definitely would stay again 😀

This hotel was above a pub, so wasn't expecting much. On arrival we were greatest with a friendly guy and had a nice chat. Told him we were staying for the Gavin and Stacey tour, to this point he then divulged that the Christmas special was actually filmed there! We were showed to our room. Everything was very clean and tidy and had fresh towels in the room. I couldn't fault the look of the room, however the bed was the most uncomfortable I've slept in. I do however have arthritis and am used to an Emma mattress. This was the only fault we could find. I know if I'd have said something the staff would have changed it immediately as they were that helpful. We were only there for 1 night so didn't make a fuss. We visited the pub in the evening and the locals had saved a table for us, as it had featured in Gavin and Stacey, which was a lovely touch. Overall, I'd stay again. The staff were lovely and the accomodation was clean.

We had a double room on the second floor booke for 2 nights. Ensuite, double bed, TV clean. There were no wardrobes but an alcove with two coat hangers. Staff very friendly and offered to carry bags up stairs. I said we could do with a few more hangers, and within minutes she was at the door with more. I asked if we could have a couple of chairs and within minutes they were provided, Tea and coffee provided but no kitchen facilities. We were told they nearly never survived Covid and justgetting back on their feet. Welcome to purchase food several takeaways local and bar staff provide clean crockery and eating utensils. They even opened up the lounge for us so we hade somewhere quiet to eat. Bar staff friendly, prices reasonable, £4 a pint. We were made to feel welcome and at home, they waved us goodbye. It is budget but warm clean friendly, locals too. We would stay a gain good value.

The Tadross Hotel was very good and great value for money, the people were very friendly. If you like staying in a pub type establishment and are not expecting 5 stars then this is definitely the best in Barry.

Don’t be put off by what it looks like outside. It’s a social club that’s tired and a little shabby with rubbish etc outside. BUT, the staff are very nice and helpful and the room (separate building by the car park) was very clean and comfortable, albeit in need of a little TLC (curtains handing down). I have paid a lot more for a far worse room in other places and for what we paid I think it was absolutely fine and for be night, would use it again. Plus, although a club, very little noise.

The room is very basic, but to be expected for that price. The bed in room 2 is awful. Super uncomfortable, was like sleeping on springs. The towel holder fell off the wall when I tried to use it. The carpets could do with a good clean. Very quiet, which was great.

Swift and friendly check in. The lady was extremely helpful and ordered us a taxi when we needed one. Room was basic but clean and the bed was comfortable. Only problem was that the curtains wouldn't close properly. Would stay there again if needed as it is a good budget hotel.

The room was tidy and clean wasn’t fussy on the sitting on the check in desk. The room next to us there were four in one room and they kept us awake all night talking and shouting for the price it was ok. Would I recommend it No
