The Parkgate Hotel
Totally recommend, wish we could have stayed longer, the most perfect location to the city everywhere in walking distance yet the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Exceptionally clean. Our room was facing the front yet never bothered by noise of traffic or people. Would happily stay again.

Cardiff Marriott Hotel
Room was clean, staff friendly and polite. Buffet breakfast was good with plenty of choice. Hotel is located near to the train station just a short walk and it’s in the centre of Cardiff. Would use again if visiting Cardiff again.

Village Hotel Cardiff
Very noisy private function made it impossible to sleep - had to change rooms at midnight. Horrible experience - would never return. Was promised a refund and will be pursuing this.
