Booked The Big Sleep Cardiff for one night as it is so near the Arena, for Viva la Diva. It was VERY disappointing. Twin room on 9th floor desperately needed refurbishment - bathroom curtains quite horrendous. Comfortable, basic beds and clean but overall experience very poor. Buffet breakfast eccentric to say the least- DIY everything - formica tables, no teaspoons,... more

We stayed in the Penthouse - a massive room with funky retro decor - although showing some signs of aging with parts of the wallpaper peeling.. basic facilities in the room but no complaints about the accommodation itself. However little did we know that the hotel is right next to a train track, as a result of which we were... more

The hotel has a really cheeeeesy 60/70 look. Not that classy - rather under furnished. The bathroom was below standard. Not worth the price. more

This hotel is great value for money and very convenient , right in the centre of Cardiff. We had a room on the 10th floor with fantastic views. The main downside is that the check out time is 10:30 am and at 10:15 am they deactivate your key card so you can't get back into the room. This happened to... more

Be very very careful before you book a room at this place. I booked a room this week and literally minutes later found out that I wouldn't need it anymore. I contacted the hotel almost immediately to cancel (almost a month in advance of the stay) and they informed me that they've charged my card £99 and that this payment... more

We recently stayed at The Big Sleep as we were going to see The Police at the nearby Millennium Stadium (10-15 mins walk away from the hotel). It was our second stay at the hotel the last being a couple of years ago & compared favourably with our first visit. We were on the 10th floor of the hotel in... more

We were in town for a concert at the Milennium Stadium, and therefore just looking for somewhere clean and comfy to kip. It was both of these things, in a great location, and for a good price (£99 per room when the Marriot was charging £250 for the basics). Can't complain! more

We stayed at The Big Sleep for two nights. The hotel entrance is not good. It is a single door off the street. You have to buzz reception, which is on the 2nd. floor, to be let in. This was very inconvenient trying to enter through the doors and elevators with luggage. At first the hotel appears to be in... more

Wonderful value - location right near the centre of Cardiff - rooms fine (and the views from the higher floors are great). Ideal if you want a comfortable bed for the night. more
