The Angel Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was great, lovely interior and very friendly and helpful staff. Only issue there was no car park although I saw there was meant to be. There was a sign to a car park for the hotel but it was closed off and we were informed to park across the road and pay £24 for overnight parking at the back of a stadium. Had a wonderful stay other wise."

The Parkgate Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel! The staff were super helpful and the facilities were perfect. The room was perfect and large. Very well maintained and clean. Personally I would have preferred a little amenities kit in the bathroom and I was slightly disappointed with the breakfast. With a buffet I expected more items on the menu and some of the pastry and hot food tasted quite stale which was disappointing considering the price. Overall, lovely hotel."

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Cardiff

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient hotel, right next to train station & opposite bus station. Near all amenities. Great staff, friendly & polite. Room good (small but ample for one night), comfy bed, great shower. Breakfast was excellent. Would recommend for stay over to watch a show, shopping etc."

The Coach & Horses Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Upon arrival (slightly early) I was greeted by a lovely lady on reception; very helpful. Check-in was quick & efficient. Good sized room & very comfy bed. Compact but super-clean & functional bathroom, with a great powerful shower. High quality towels & linens throughout. Room amenities were of a high standard, plenty of hanging space for clothes, plus drawers for my bits. Spacious desk/workspace, with plenty of power outlets. After checking in, I enjoyed a superb meal in the restaurant, & a couple of drinks in the bar; for the standard I was more than happy with the cost. I had an issue (lost property), but that was quickly resolved by the hotel manager who was extremely helpful. Can't fault this establishment; I can thoroughly recommend a stay & a meal!"

Future Inns Cardiff Bay

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and comfortable. Good sized bathroom with bath and shower. Pleasant, helpful staff. Free parking was a bonus. The restaurant was a nice place to eat, but vegetarian menu is too limited. There was only one vegetarian main on the menu. As we were staying for 2 nights, we needed to go somewhere else to eat on the second night."
