Really easy to get to Cardiif Bay and in particular Alexandra Head for a concert. You're closer than you think! Staff were very helpful particularly when my Type I diabetic 10 year old had an emergency. Staff very friendly. The room was very nice, clean and spacious. Great view.

Great location in the bay with free parking. Friendly, helpful staff. Speedy lifts right up to 6th floor. Very welcome extras like biscuits and bottles of water in rooms and bathrobe to use. Apples sometimes available outside lifts. Beds not quite as comfy as Premier and TVs smaller, but a very enjoyable stay.

Ok stay
Service was good and overall clean. Bed was very uncomfortable, causing a bad night sleep. Overall place is very dated. But will say it was quite, didn’t have doors slamming all night
