Lovely clean room, good temperature controls comfortable beds and pillows. The television in the room was a good size and had a good selection, and the food menu had good choices and after ordering room service the food lived up to expectations. I enjoyed using the pool and steam room on site and I would definitely stay again.

FAQs about hotels in Cardiff








The Pride of Wales

Capital of Wales, Cardiff is a wonderfully green city steeped in national pride. At its heart is enormous Bute Park, divided by the River Taff and named after the marquis that once lived in Cardiff Castle overlooking it. In fact, this is just one of 5 castles within the surrounding area.

Over the road is Cathays Park, a beautiful square flanked by Edwardian architectural masterpieces including Cardiff City Hall and the excellent National Museum of Wales. Another must-see is St Fagan’s National History Museum, one of Britain’s top attractions.

From Victorian arcades to the fabulous St David’s Center, shopping in Cardiff is fantastic. And there’s no shortage of pubs and restaurants for a short rest or meal. Those by Cardiff Bay have particularly pleasant views.

Also by the bay are the futuristic National Assembly for Wales and the Wales Millennium Center. Another year 2,000 landmark is the Millennium Stadium, a state-of-the-art venue for international rugby and soccer matches, as well as concerts. Next door is Cardiff Arms Park, home to the city’s rugby union team, while Cardiff City FC’s new stadium is in the west.

Cardiff Airport is further west near Barry and Booking.com have an excellent range of hotels, B&Bs and apartments both near there and in the city center.

    The hotel staff, taxi drivers, local shopkeepers and local people were all friendly and willing to share information about the area. The water bus and bay trips were well worth going on.

    We enjoyed our short stay in Cardiff and would probably have stayed another couple of nights. We had a great meal out at Ty Madeira, and enjoyed Cardiff Castle, although it is a slightly odd selection of different things to do. It is easy to get around Cardiff: we mainly walked but got taxis when the weather didn't allow that.

    Hosts greeted us on site to hand over keys and explain the off street parking. All the room sizes in this apartment are surprising large. Most of the kitsch appliances felt like they were new and plenty of plates pots etc. Very quiet and a good location for Cardiff Bay. Also near Cardiff Bay Train station and a taxi rank if you need to get into Cardiff City centre. Good value for money.
