The room had a weird layout and a terrible ceiling design if you are tall. The staff was not particularly helpful nor friendly-particularly as we wound up in an adjoining room with loud and rude neighbours. We had to call the reception at 10 pm to ask them to speak to the people next door as they were excessively loud. Food and drinks were very expensive as well. Would not recommend.

We’ve stayed here before and it’s ok, it’s probably at the lower end of being a four star hotel because whenever we’ve stayed it’s never super clean (we wouldn’t have stayed here again except it was the only available place when we were in town for a concert) - this time there was a false eyelash left on the floor, the bathroom floor looked like it had been maybe swept but not mopped as you could see water marks on the floor, cobwebs on the windows. The worst thing this time was the fire alarm that sounded twice for a few seconds between 3:30 and 4am, we couldn’t get an explanation as to what this was about but we couldn’t get back to sleep so not a great experience. On the plus side - we had room service when we arrived and breakfast the next day and the food was good, staff are friendly. A quick note about taxis, which is not the hotels responsibility but is something to bear in mind: it can be difficult to get an Uber or taxi to/from Cardiff, it must be too far from Cardiff centre for most drivers. Reception won’t book a taxi for you but they do have local cab firm numbers at the desk and let you use the phone to pre-book for yourself. Pre-booked Ubers also work
