Very nice, clean hotel. Very convenient location right opposite the castle and a 5 minute walk to the centre. Definitely would recommend if visiting Cardiff. Staff were very friendly and a welcome Welsh biscuit on arrival was a very nice touch 😊

Location is pretty good, walking distance to cardiff castle, bus and train central stations.  Amenities are basic - what you would expect at this level and the breakfast was 6.5/10 - could have been better in terms of options as well as service provided.

Undeniably, the location of the hotel is perfect as it is very close to the Cardiff Castle and the city center, only few minutes to there. The hotel also provides carpark with a reasonable charges. The staff is friendly, except that when we requested 2 more pillows, the staff questioned us why we did not take the spare pillows in the wardrobe where he didn't realize that those pillows were taken by his colleague who took them to set up 2 sofa beds for us. We explained this to him but it appeared to me that he was very impatient and impolite and cut the line. At last, of course the staff did not follow up. Same as other advise, the hotel really needs renovation as the decoration and fittings are old and outdated.
