Liked: Cleanliness
Superb location, very close to shops and dinning options, right in the door of Cardiff Castle and very close to the Cardiff National museum. The room was clean, nice and the staff did the bed and changed my towels all days. Didn’t have breakfast, so can’t say anything about that. The lift was broken so this was an issue in terms of accessibility. Would return again.

Our third stay here. Breakfast was disappointing this time - overcooked food, making it dry and not very nice. Staff were friendly and welcoming but often slow service in the bar area. Comfortable and clean but could do with a refresh.

Disliked: Amenities
Filthy dirty walls, carpets & doors all over really. Mould in bathroom, damaged sink, shower a trickle towel rail not working cold water was warm & hairdryer not worth having. Hallways & lobby stinks of drains. Plaster falling off walls in hotel. Staff didn’t even ask how our stay was I can only assume they have heard it all before. Did not stay for breakfast wouldn’t want the consequences of eating there. Absolutely terrible experience I suggest you take it off your books this was my first booking with Expedia & my last m.

It has great character with a beautiful staircase and chandelier. It is being renovated and is in need of some updating. Staff was lovely. Parking referenced was closed, there is a convenient lot across the street but requires payment.

Hotel was nice enough but tired looking - needs to be thoroughly cleaned and redecorated. Breakfast was nice but certain items weren't being replenished. I would stay again as long as the price was right.

A great welcome - staff are always welcoming, positive and professional. The room was comfortable but some fixtures could be updated in the hotel - including lifts (which weren't working on my visit) and panelling/floor tiles in bathroom. But centrally located and good value for money.
