Enjoyed my stay. ##### Jonathan Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Cheryl 21 Sept 2025 Very difficult to climb flights of stairs. We are all old. Not very clean. ##### Cheryl Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Leonard 8 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location. Walking distance from train station, castle, great pubs and restaurants. Rooms spacious and had everything you needed. Beds and pillows comfy but could have done with and extra blanket or two. Would definitely stay again. ##### Leonard Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mandy 6 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Check-in was very easy. Room had everything i needed - suiltable for one or two nights stay in Cardiff. Located in the centre of Cardiff but very quiet from my room. ##### Mandy Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nikul 19 Feb 2023 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort Decent stay for what I paid. The location is great and right in the city centre and not far from the bus station as well as the train station. Slight smell of cigarette smoke on the bedding but apart from that it was a comfortable stay. ##### Nikul Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### KATHI 22 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness It is a budget venue and it is good value for the cost. It is basic lodging with a lot of stairs. The hotel was smaller than I expected but the rooms were a good size. ##### KATHI Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Barrie 29 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Needed a bed for the night and thst was it.Basic but functional.Was quiet enough to sleep in city centrevlocation Check in/ out a breeze.Helpful,friendly staff in Gyros downstairs Would stay again. ##### Barrie Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Gordon 7 Sept 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The worst hotel in Cardiff (worse than my tent) This has to be the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The check in was in a neighbouring Greek Gyro take away and that should have told me something about what was ahead! My room was 99 steps up, through dirty and threadbare carpet! The place needs a complete renovation it’s really disgusting. I had been camping in my tent for the prior 5 nights and seriously thought about leaving and doing another night in the tent but I really need a shower. Almost everything in the room was dirty, stained or broken, often all three!! ##### Gordon Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lee 30 Jan 2025 Liked: Room comfort #### Good Was nice cheap so didn't expect much ##### Lee Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Adrian 23 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not very good Grotty room. Many stairs with borderline dangerous badly worn carpet. Check in and the people were good but the room was disappointing. The window has broken glass which is repaired with tape. Mould in the room. Chair is in dangerous condition. Badly in need of a refit before a serious accident happens. Would I book again? NO!!!. For the cost of the room I feel it's too expensive as there are better options locally for a similar price. ##### Adrian Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mandie 2 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities Walking distance for central Cardiff ##### Mandie Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Joelle 11 Jul 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Right in the heart of the walking route. It was loud at night and in the morning. Parking was expensive but the discount rate we received was generous. Large spacious room ##### Joelle Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### moesha 8 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### ideal for friends ideal as there were 4 of us so we all atayed together. fairly clean, did notice however stains on the curtains (sound petty but it what was noticed) didn't affect our time in Cardiff though. ##### moesha Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Petr 6 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Location is perfect, rooms are totally OK but atrociously slow and unstable wifi signal ruins everything ##### Petr Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Stuart 18 Nov 2024 Liked: Room comfort Was easy enough to find, right in the centre of Cardiff. 5 minutes from the Principality Stadium. Very comfy bed. Slept well. 77 steps up to the room. With a suitcase, arthritic knees and COPD it was a hike. No water in the morning. Couldnt have a shower or make a drink. ##### Stuart Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ian 24 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property was totally unsuitable for us. We are both in our 70's. There were 3 flights of stairs and no lift. The Stairwell carpets were worn and threadbare and a trip hazard. There was no Reception and the Keys had to be picked up from the Gyros Shop next door. ##### Ian Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Lawrence 5 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Good if you want to party Went for the wrestling with friends. Really convenient as it is right in the Main Street but…it is right on the Main Street so it is LOUD. With a group of friends out on the lash it’s perfect. Family intending to sleep maybe not but I found it comfortable and a great place to use as a base to enjoy the nightlife. ##### Lawrence Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Octavio 25 Dec 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Excellent location with disappointing condition. Carpets should be replaced, at least. ##### Octavio ### 6/10 Okay #### Oliver 16 Dec 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### ML Lodge Convenient location but room was FREEZING with only single pane windows, a closet I could not use because it was smelling so bad of stale cigarette smoke, AWFUL decor and a bathroom I did not want to use because it was so scruffy and dirty feeling. ##### Oliver Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Barbara 28 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The door to the toilet didn’t close. I don’t mind, but you should know there are no elevators; there were 58 steps to reach our room. It was good for the price, and excellent location for nightlife and shopping; a decent walk to the waterfront where I enjoyed looking at several species of birds. ##### Barbara Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### John 30 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fairly large room, good view of the town, central location. Plenty of tea, coffee, milk, kettle in room. even an iron and ironing board. The TV was small but worked well. Access is via a long staircase over 3 floors pending on which room you get, best to travel light or it can be bit of a haul. We have used ML lodge before and would use it again, its great value for money. One tip, lock your door from inside/outside as it does not lock automatically on closure to avoid unexpected interruptions or being turned over if you go out. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Joseph 23 Nov 2024 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities My room was on the top floor and was unacceptably freezing cold. I did call, and an hour later was brought a small space heater, which only slightly helped, while sleeping in my winter jacket and using the comforters on both beds…luckily had a room with 2 beds. Went for cheapest option, and guess you get what you pay for, but still feel I paid too much to feel like I was sleeping outside. ##### Joseph Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Priory Hotel and Restaurant](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Priory-Hotel-And-Restaurant.h17828361.Hotel-Information) > > [Cwrt Bleddyn Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Ramada-Resort-By-Wyndham-Cwrt-Bleddyn-Hotel-Spa.h486291.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Pontypool Metro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Best-Western-Pontypool-Metro-Hotel.h6407832.Hotel-Information) > > [Future Inns Cardiff Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Future-Inns-Cardiff-Bay.h1160305.Hotel-Information) > > [voco St David's Cardiff by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Voco-St-Davids-Cardiff.h545633.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Newport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Newport.h1048193.Hotel-Information) > > [Crofts Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Crofts.h38726361.Hotel-Information) > > [Celtic International Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Celtic-International-Hotel-Cardiff-Airport.h17056957.Hotel-Information) > > [New House Country Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-New-House-Country-Hotel.h27938.Hotel-Information) > > [The Coal Exchange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Exchange-Hotel.h18075906.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Cardiff Bay by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Cardiff-Bay.h520001.Hotel-Information) > > [Century Wharf by Urban Space](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Century-Wharf-By-Urban-Space.h54283573.Hotel-Information) > > [Coldra Court Hotel by Celtic Manor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Coldra-Court-Hotel-By-Celtic-Manor.h542557.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn NEWPORT by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-NEWPORT.h10273.Hotel-Information) > > [Jolyon's Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Jolyons-Boutique-Hotel.h1869025.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Cardiff North Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Mercure-Cardiff-North-Hotel.h20256.Hotel-Information) > > [The Maltsters Arms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Maltsters-Arms.h36709474.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardiff Metropolitan University, Plas Gwyn Halls - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-Metropolitan-University.h30551499.Hotel-Information) > > [Llechwen Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Llechwen-Hall-Hotel.h4035488.Hotel-Information) > > [Lincoln House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Lincoln-House-Hotel.h4632904.Hotel-Information) > > [Newbridge on Usk](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Newbridge-On-Usk.h68603360.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Barn Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Old-Barn-Inn.h11900846.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Cardiff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Cardiff.h200304.Hotel-Information) > > [Lanelay Hall Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Lanelay-Hall-Hotel-Spa.h19385738.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Parkway-Hotel-Spa.h10704.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardiff University, Talybont Gate Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-University.h30551505.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Cardiff by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Cardiff.h68218398.Hotel-Information) ---
