What is the difference between a 3-star hotel and a motel in Cardiff?

These getaways are typically found close to airports and major roads, feature ample parking and have basic services and amenities. Stay at a 3-star hotel and you'll be more centrally located. With a larger choice of rooms and more amenities like a lobby, gym and free WiFi, you can expect to pay extra for hotel lodgings.
