Fantastic breakfast

Breakfast was excellent lots of choice
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2026
Well equipped room. Comfortable beds. Very good breakfast. About 20 min walk to central Cardiff or Cardiff Bay. Parking £10 = very reasonable in Cardiff!
All good
5.0 / 10.0·Feb 2026
Just about passable. Clean, warm and reasonably comfortable, and that just about sums it up.
Surly staff. No welcome, just a demand for parking fee and money to cover our dog. Limited parking anyway (at £10/night) and nothing offered for the dog - not even a bowl of water; £15 a night for that! Adding an unexpected £100 to our 4-night bill. The dismal view from the room across a former dock is of the back of a steelworks. The hotel isn't close to Cardiff centre or the attractions of Cardiff Bay and not on a bus route. A small dinner menu, mainly of the burger kind, and a limited choice for breakfast (horrible hotel mashed eggs and overcooked bacon) and incessant loud 'muzak' to make conversation difficult. Not the best hotel I've stayed at, not even the best Holiday Inn!
