Date night in town
Really good stay, staff were helpful and obliged when I asked them to provide a few extra touches, such as wine in the room chilled and waiting for my wife on arrival. The room was a deluxe and well worth the additional cost as was spacious and the view was great.

Great stay
The hotel is very close to the station right in the middle of central Cardiff. It’s very clean and they’re a bee keeper so you can buy honey and other honey stuff. I’ve chosen the cinema room which was great. A great collection of games and movies they even have Netflix, Disney, BBC, ITV and other channels. The only problem I would say is the smell of the hotel it smells like hair dye.
