Excellent location but tired rooms
Lovely, historic, centrally located hotel directly opposite Cardiff castle. Warm welcome, decent breakfast buffet, but rooms are a bit jaded - reflected in the very reasonable price we paid for a city centre hotel. Ancient heating system supplemented by free standing heater in room. Be aware theres no parking, and local options are very expensive - take the short walk from Sophia gardens where parking is much more reasonable.

Breakfast was nice, main entrance outside could do with a good clean, room 125 was very noisy all night due to traffic outside as windows very old and draughty quilt on bed was thin especially for winter. Price was reasonable for two nights.

Fantastic city location
Very friendly reception staff, couldn’t comment on breakfast but I’ve read that it’s very nice, we only stayed the one night as a birthday treat for my partner, he was thrilled with our stay, the location you couldn’t fault, the only negative was there was a bit of a musty smell but that didn’t put us off, would definitely book again.
