Room tired and too hot to bear
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!

Great location
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.

Revisiting!
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.
