    comfy bed
    spacious layout
    needs updates

    The room was big, clean, and had a lovely comfy bed. The separate shower with the bath was awesome, and the hot water was just right. It felt spacious which was nice to have. The only downside was it could use some updates here and there, but still, I was really cozy while I stayed there.

    incredible prawn starter

    It was just an appropriate option for a relaxing holiday in Cardiff with reasonable price. We had a great prawn starter, it was incredible! If traveling with children, check room setup in advance to avoid tight sleeping arrangements.

    ineffective air conditioning
    stale kettle water

    during my stay in cardiff, i was genuinely impressed with how the hotel exceeded my expectations for my friend's birthday celebration. the staff's attentiveness made sure the room was beautifully decorated, creating an unforgettable ambiance. we particularly loved the delicious breakfast spread that included freshly baked pastries.

    air conditioning was not effective.

    carpet stains
    bathroom safety

    Unique hybrid architectural design, Health facilities open to guests, Proximity to Cardiff Bay

    The carpeting in common areas definitely needs a good deep clean!!! The bathroom tiles in rooms require immediate attention for safety!!! Staff could benefit from more training to handle the high volume of guests efficiently!!!

    spacious rooms
    comfy beds

    The large comfy beds and spacious rooms were highlights, but we faced recurring issues with the air conditioning. The ambiance felt welcoming and calm, making it great for families not wanting to party all night.

    Felt welcomed into the family, nothing too much trouble.
