Great location for the Stadium. Staff very helpful,and good bar food available late. Price of the room above average because of the concert,but to be expected
Denise,

The room is so comfortable, doesn't feel like one of those pristine rooms you don't want to unpack in, it feels like yours as soon as you walk in.

The room was very spacious, larger than expected and was decorated modern. The bed was really comfortable, and the staff were really friendly, accommodating and helpful. We went back into Cardiff to finish shopping the day we checked out, and they allowed us to leave our stuff there free of charge in a cloakroom that only staff had access to!

The location is brilliant only a short walk from the train station and right in the centre of the city , the hotel is very clean the room spacious with a really comfortable kingsize bed . The staff were brilliant and even though we had a couple of technical difficulties with aircon and door lock they were dealt with as far as possible by the staff with a special thanks from us to Dean who went out of his way to sort out these minor blips
