The floor in the room was terrible squeaky and creaky
The noise from other guests was really loud
Won't be staying there again
And wouldn't recommend
Hotel in a good location, but unfortunately there was a xmas function on we did not sleep till gone 2.30 am ,we were given a room on 2nd floor ,also breakfast was disappointing not a bad choice but it had dried up a bit when we arrived at around 9.30 ish ,but the staff were polite and approachable
Considering our room was meant to be a deluxe twin, it was extremely disappointing! The room was very tired as was most of the hotel. Some lights wouldn't work, the bathroom was dark and dingy, shower curtain too short so water went all over the floor, but the worst bit was the extreme heating on full blast in the room. I complained to reception that the heat was rediculous and enquired if it could be turned down by them. They advised as it was winter the heating was now on and that it was either on or off. My argument was that it was only mid October and a mild wet one at that! They did bring a pedestal fan up to the room which we had to run all night long due to the intense heat and it was an awful night with very restless sleep. I will not be returning. Place needs complete refurb!
If you're looking for great value and convenience, this is the place to stay and as we were only looking for a bed for the night in the town centre, I cannot fault it.
Centrally located in walking distance of train and bus service, opposite Cardiff Castle plenty of eating and drinking options. Across the road from rugby stadiums.
My room was clean, warm and comfortable. The bed was especially comfortable and I slept like a log. The staff were friendly and attentive. Great customer care. Well done Elizabeth and her staff.

Friendly accommodating staff. Some common walkways a little tired but good clean room and flexible service. Reasonable price. Good value compared to various chains and great central location.

Hotel well placed but tired looking. Had to pay £25 for parking in Sophia Gardens as I was not aware the hotel no longer had its own parking nearby
Great location in the city centre. Beautiful lobby and good breakfast. Bed was comfortable but pillows a little to thick for me. Room was very clean but could be a bit more sound proof. Irish coffee in bar was lovely. All in all very good.
Best staff of any Cardiff hotel. Very comfortable, spacious room. Some bar chairs could do with a good clean as they are badly stained. Room was very clean though.
