Staying at this hotel was a pleasant experience. The location is perfect, right in the city center near many restaurants and pubs. The staff was very welcoming and helpful, which added to the positive stay. However, the dining experience could use some improvement, especially in terms of breakfast options. Overall, a good value for money choice in a central location.

The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms are generally in poor repair, with issues like a faulty hairdryer and broken taps, but they come with convenient tea and coffee facilities and a shared bathroom nearby. The service is friendly and accommodating, although room cleaning is less frequent. The location is excellent for easy access to Central Cardiff and major attractions, while the dining experience, though tasty, has room for improvement. Overall, a somewhat flawed but decent option for a stay.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were beautifully decorated with lovely furnishings but suffered from the lack of proper ventilation and noise disturbances. The service was decent, and the location had its perks despite some drawbacks. The dining options were limited, and the facilities could use some improvements.

I had a nice stay at the hotel, it was clean and comfortable, although the room was a bit small. The staff was very friendly and helpful, plus the keys after at least 2 nights was a convenient touch. The location was excellent for exploring central Cardiff, close to everything, but there were homeless tents nearby. The dining options were decent, although a bit pricey for what was offered.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, despite offering a supposed river view that was non-existent, were well-decorated and comfortable, although the humidity was noticeable. The service was very helpful and accommodating, especially when I needed to make changes to my booking. The location was exceptional, close to the city center and within walking distance of various attractions, making it convenient for exploring. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, with limited breakfast options at a slightly higher price point.

The hotel has a fantastic location right on the river bank opposite the Millennium Stadium. The rooms were clean and a bit small but overall okay, with a smell of urine in some corners. The service was excellent, especially accommodating my bus delay. The dining experience was good, but a bit limited for vegetarians. The location is quiet and beautiful, close to Cardiff central and the lovely Bute Park. My stay was pleasant overall, but there were some cleanliness issues in the room.
