This was a trip to Wales for the EPRC finals in Cardiff, picked this hotel as it was close to Cardiff, rail connections were good into the city which was recommended
3-night trip

8/10

Very spacious comfortable room, aircon not working properly on a very hot day. Staff were excellent, attentive, polite and friendly. Excellent choice at breakfast, (£15pp) good quality food, but so-so coffee. Bar meal expensive for what we got, Mezze platter tasty but not a lot for the £20+ we paid. Gorgeous.grounds and views. Plenty of parking. Facilities great if you use them, pool, gym, golf. Great location just off M4. We had a vey good rate so it was very good vfm.

Room was a little more dated than others we've stayed in at this hotel but still totally spotless and even though it was a standard double the bed was enormous. Staff were pleasant as always and the food superb fabulous stay.

My stay was okay. The room is clean and spacious. I am not happy with their response to my request on early check-in. I sent a mail to them requesting for an early check-in around 1pm. They acknowledged my mail and told me they will review and see the possibility . Nobody got back to me and my request was not granted. They should have provided feedback to enable me improvise

Reception no personality at all , when we booked in . Pool closed very disappointed. Room excellent. Diner very good although three items not available. Nice little touches like bottle of wine in room , and bottles of water . But we did have exec. Room worth the extra . Would definitely return.

10/10

This is a great place to stay. Lovely spacious rooms, great wifi, wonderful bathrooms and great views. But .... I'm sorry to be slightly negative but the curtains could do with being able to close properly for privacy. That is literally my only gripe. I can't speak about breakfast as I always leave too early. But I do like this hotel, my next-door neighbour (Clive Griffiths) put me onto this as he played rugby for Wales and always rated this hotel. I look forward to returning.
