The breakfast was a little dissapointing. There was a good selection but the hot section was only luke warm and the bacon a little dried out. We were not late to breakfast either. For the cost of our rooms I would have expected a little more.

Nice little hotel for a good value in the center of it all. I really enjoyed the space of the room, location, and quiet by guests. A few upgrades could be made to the bed and TV, but not a deal breaker. If you can, ask for a room on the other side of Mary st. Club music is noticeable unto 2 am.

We enjoyed our time in Cardiff Wales and staying in this hotel. The staff were very helpful. The room was large, clean and comfy. The area around the hotel was very safe. The shops and restaurants were very accessible. We loved our time in Cardiff, Wales. We would definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends. When we get a chance to visit Cardiff again, we will definitely stay in this hotel.
