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 Centre, shopping in Cardiff is a delight. And there’s no shortage of pubs and restaurants in which to rest awhile. Those by Cardiff Bay offer particularly pleasant views.

Also by the bay are the futuristic National Assembly for Wales and the Wales Millennium Centre. Another year 2000 landmark is the Millennium Stadium, a state-of-the-art venue for international rugby and football 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 centre.

    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. The Norwegian church and other sights both in Mermaid Quay and Cardiff city and Castle were all worth visiting. We had a really good and interesting time.

    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.

    Didn't spend too much time in the city itself as we only went for a night to go to a music gig. That said Cardiff has changed a lot since I was last there 20 years ago. Much cleaner and more vibrant. I loved the shopping arcades that were only a stones throw from the railway station, the sports stadium and plenty of guest houses. I do recommend some sort of map once you are in the city shopping area. I am pretty much ok but the person I was with has the sense of direction of a deranged lemming and once we got to the central shopping area she got totally lost. Plenty of cheap places to eat and drink if you look, that cater to all tastes, ethnicity and diet. There are a multiplicity of stores that can offer everything from cute 'Welsh Dragon' plush toy stores to an entire shop dedicated to just selling Lego (Other building block construction kits are available!) One massive plus is it so easy to get to places if you know where you are going. The fact that all the areas to shop, eat drink are in a pedestrianised location that has no vehicles AT ALL is great.

    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.
