I enjoyed my stay and found it in good location for walking to the Bay and dining areas. Catching a Bus from there to the shopping centre is easy. My only issue was that I didn’t get much sleep as there was a couple arguing near by and they kept me awake, I was also staying on my own so was frightened.

Great locaton, clean rooms and lobby, and friendly staff. Nice view of the lake to sit with a beer. Pillows a bit lumpy but still reasonable sleep. Very convenient for the bay.

good clean comfortable room. Unfortunately due to an incident in the adjoining building the fire alarm was activated at 4.30 am so our sleep was disturbed. Good to know that the alarms are in good working order though!

Staff are very welcoming, friendly and helpful at all time. I enjoyed the breakfast throughout my 6 night stay. I didn't like their lack of enough parking space. Twice I had to park my car further away from the carpark because it was full. I was refunded for the nights I wasn't able to park on their compound though.

Worthwhile trip to Cardiff
We travelled over 300 miles to Cardiff to see Billy Joel's only European show of 2024. Prices at all hotels were immensely inflated. Our accomodation through Hotels.com got cancelled twice including only a few weeks before the concert but we were lucky to get the last room at the Holiday Inn Express, although it was an accessible room with a walk-in shower. It looked over the wharf and was comfortable and pleasant. All patrons got a free breakfast, the usual choices but replenished regularly. There was a 25 minute walk to the City Centre and 15-20 minutes to Cardiff Bay with it's great choice of restaurants, giving us the choice of going in either direction. We thought that was ideal. The staff were efficient and helpful throughout. Needless to say the concert was superb making the long trip well worthwhile.

Three Days in Cardiff
The bed was comfortable but the room was on the warm side (you have no control over the AC). We were able to get a fan. It was clean and safe. Closer walk to Cardiff Bay than Cardiff Centre. Not much close by but the hotel did have a bar for drinks and served food.
