My wife & I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Cardiff as this is easily the best hotel we have stayed at in the area. We always have a business class room which is both spacious & decently equipped, in fact these rooms come equipped with Nesspresso coffee machines so you can even get decent coffee in your room.

If like us you are looking for a good centrally located hotel then the Radisson ticks most of the boxes . It is close to the train station,close to the Bay (with its host of attractions ) as well as being at the start of the main shopping and bar area. Added to that you will have a quiet well... More

I was hoping for better than recent Travelode experiences, and boy did this hotel live up. Check in wasn't the best start. 6pm and I am third in the queue with 4 desks but I Only one checker-in. Still, we breathed deeply and counted to about 510 and ended up with a business class room on the 12th floor. Corner... More

Stayed here Friday night with my wife for her birthday. It was a last minute booking via Late Rooms. We stayed on the 17th floor and had a bargain. Hotel is lovely and very quiet. Breakfast is a buffet and thoroughly recommended.

I needed an invoice and were rude at reception when I asked and said events and meetings were nothing to do with reception and they were only concerned about giving us a room card.... More

Very comfortable hotel - I've stayed their twice for conferences now and always found it excellent. Rooms are very comfortable; the beds might be a little soft for some. The reason that this didn't get a 5 rating is because I couldn't open any of the windows, so it was a bit on the stuffy side.
