The Hotel was clean and comfortable, staff were very friendly and service was very good. Parking was quite busy but very convenient behind the Hotel. The Hotel location was excellent for the city centre and local amenities. We have stayed before and would stay again.

Very comfortable hotel with excellent restaurant

We liked the large rooms and bathroom. The air conditioning was quiet. We had delicious dinner at the restaurant downstairs. The castle is 5 minutes walking distance and there are many restaurants and stores nearby. We walked from the train station to the hotel. The staff were very friendly.

Poor experience

Visited Cardiff for a 50th birthday party so wanted a bed for the night. Everything was OK until at 7am two loud (possibly drunk) men barged into our room, singing and shouting. When they saw us in bed they said “Oh, we thought this was our room, Reception gave us this number”. They left rapidly and left our door open until I shouted for them to shut it. Left us both shaken and spoilt an otherwise lovely weekend. On departure we reported this to Reception and the Receptionist refunded us our breakfast charge. Rather disappointed.
