A great location, overlooking Cardiff Bay and the staff are very helpful. But - you have to trek down to the spa to get a bathrobe, there is no mini-bar or fridge in the room, the food is dull and very average. The bread deserves a special mention - the cheapest, doughiest bread rolls and toast I have ever tasted.... more

I stayed at this hotel on the 31st of October 2009, with my girlfriend. I paid £159, for the Shopping Package, which was £20 cheaper than just booking an Executive Room with breakfast on it's own. For that the hotel provided taxis to and from the main shopping area in Cardiff, a £20 House of Fraiser gift card, and two... more

Staff were helpful and room was fine, but overall the hotel's a bit non-descript. It's not 5 star luxury. My husband paid £10 extra one night for the 'romantic package' which made us laugh as it consisted of 4 small strawberries, some jellies and a fluffly rug thing which I assume was part of the the package as it disappeared... more

I stayed here as a surprise for my girlfriend, we weren't disappointed. From the valet to reception staff, the concierge, the bar staff, the cleaners, everyone was absolutely superb, friendly and professional. The room was large with a balcony and floor to ceiling windows overlooking Cardiff Bay. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice and high quality, a buffet of cooked... more

Impressive entrance hall and exceptional service from staff on arrival including a complementary bottle of fizz in our room. The hotel is very modern in style, built about 10 years ago. Each room has a fantastic view of the bay due to the horse shoe shape layout. We stayed on a Sunday night when prices were very reasonable. Loved the... more
