Lovely stay! I stayed for the Cardiff half marathon and the location was 10/10 - literally in the start line. Beyond that, the hotel staff was totally dedicated to make out run plans as smooth as possible: early breakfast, shower rooms after the race and even pre-race snacks. Lovely!!

Air con was great in the rooms, the bar & lobby etc are modern and an absolutely brilliant location. Unfortunately the rooms are not modern and are quite run down, old carpets are not appealing at all but overall for a one night stay in worked well.

Great place. Location. Food. Just the old lady at reception was really miserable and I made an effort to smile and be polite. Yet she looked like she didn’t want to be there. Apart from that. Awesome
