Room was clean and had all what was needed the hotel is and old building in need of some loving attention to bring it back to its former glory but it was an overnight stay and was very adequate for our stay great price
Great location, right across from Cardiff Castle and close to restaurants and shops. Train station is a few blocks away. An older, grand hotel but well maintained with comfy beds and clean rooms. Great breakfast options in the morning. Would stay here again.
Lovely big, clean room and friendly, accommodating staff. Breakfast was nice. Expect slightly faded grandeur rather than a modern property. Good value for money.
On arrival, we were greeted by the most wonderful staff. The hotel was marvellous and very clean throughout. The staircase leading to all floors was fabulous. The room was spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. Breakfast was great value and provided us with excellent choices.
A great stay and super staff. Highly recommend 😊

Great staff and very clean. A bit dated and no Aircon in our superior double room but the shower was very good. Lovely comfy bed and a great night sleep. Breakfast was fresh and hot. Not much not to like. The location is central for sports and shopping

Had an offer on this Hotel so it was great value for money. The decor is very tired but the Hotel is in a great location and we enjoyed our short stay. We were offered a, reduced rate breakfast at £10 a head which was good value and very enjoyable.
