Lovely staff and breakfast in bed was a bonus.
Gavin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were exceptionally warm and kind, the hotel is brightly lit but in warmer colours than more modern hotels which was easier on my eyes personally. Beautiful hotel directly across from the castle and at the edge of the arcades and shopping area, perfect for tourists
Aileen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a wonderful stay for one night and would have stayed longer if I could! Nicest hotel that I've been at for a while. Friendly staff, lovely ambience as you enter and very nicely sized and laid out room. Thank you!

Christine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was very good value. Comfortable, not luxury, but with all that you need. A little hot at night. Friendly welcome, couldn’t fault it for a night visiting the Utilita Stadium.

Ceri, 2-night trip

Great hotel

Lovely to stay in an independent hotel with some history and friendly staff. The property needs a little TLC but this was our second stay and would definitely stay again. Location to city centre is great.

Great location not far from railway station and close to castle and town centre. Room was good size and a comfy bed. Staff were friendly and helpful. We did not have breakfast
Sarah, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Stayed for 3 nights in October: Pros: Staff are lovely Excellent location Cons: Elevator was not working Windows are old so rooms can be noisy as close to road and nightclubs
Ruth, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean room and lovely staff, but really could do with some TLC refresh
Chris, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location

Excellent location - opposite the castle - room was spotless and speedy check in and check out
Ceri, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pros: Very friendly staff. Spacious bedroom. Centrally located in Cardiff city and near the football stadium and restaurants/shops. Very reasonable price for room only. Cons: There is no hotel carpark and you should factor in parking in a nearby secure multistorey carpark. This cost me £32 per 24 hours. Apart from the grand entrance hall the hotel is looking very tired and needs investment.
Dave, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A great welcome - staff are always welcoming, positive and professional. The room was comfortable but some fixtures could be updated in the hotel - including lifts (which weren't working on my visit) and panelling/floor tiles in bathroom. But centrally located and good value for money.
