First time in Cardiff, my wife and I went especially to see 2 concerts in St Davids Hall.
Hotel staff were friendly, room (deluxe) was big and ultra modern,
Breakfast what you would expect, no problems.
Cardiff nice spot for a couple of days shopping etc, any longer would be boring.
Royal Hotel is very central to Bus/Train, shopping and beside a large Wetherspoons(Converted Theatre). Great value and foodwas great.

Just returned from another wonderful experience of this hotel. I had stayed before on business but had decided to book a junior suite for the weekend.

The room was lovely and the view was brilliant, I absolutely love the beds at this hotel they are so comfy and so too are the pillows.

The staff are just fantastic with a special mention to Simon the guy from Leeds. We were constantly asking for the iron, wine glasses, drinks etc and reception were cheerful at all times and one girl even went searching the hotel for the ironing board for us so we wouldn't be late going out for our meal.

Each time I have left the Royal I am sad to go and I will definately be returning in the near future.

Just returned from a one night stay at The Royal Hotel. It's a very nice establishment, fairly contemporary and the staff were friendly.

The Deluxe King room was a fair size with room for seating, a desk and a very good looking bathroom. Bottled water in the room is always a nice touch.

The bonus of this hotel is that they cater for dogs, with prior notice and at no extra charge. Before I got to the hotel, I did wonder whether we would be put in a "dog-owners" room, but it appeared to be a very nice, clean room with no evidence of badly behaved dogs!

The only problem I found with the hotel is that to gain access to the building through either of its two entrances, you must press a buzzer and wait for an answer. On various occasions, this required several attempts to contact reception, and doesn't really enhance security as long as you quote a name or room number you'll get entry! A much better approach would be to integrate their snazzy contactless door keys with the exterior doors.

Overall, a very pleasant stay, for a good price (£100).

This was an absolutely wonderful hotel!! The staff were kind, thoughtful, and personable. The room was very well appointed, and the bathrooms were like nothing else in Europe!! Spacious bathrooms with a big bathtub!!
