Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The location was convenient and suited our needs but we could hear loud music until 3am!
The staff were all friendly and attentive.
Areas of the hotel are looking rather tired but it's still a grand, old building with an impressive staircase.

Fine for an overnight stay.
Good base to stay while in Cardiff. Impressive foyer, helpful reception staff. Can’t comment on bar or restaurant as we didn’t use them. Nice room, spacious but a bit dated and bathroom was cold from the single glazed windows. Nice quiet location but some noise from air con/kitchen vents.
Large but very springy bed!
staff excellent & friendly, seen better days but great location was travelling with my dog but no problems. would recommend & use for any future trips to Cardiff
Although the exterior of the outside of the hotel was very tired looking , inside was charming.
Room was very clean , breakfast was lovely .
Staff was very accommodating, so pleasant and helpful and within easy walking distance of city centre.
Will definitely stay here again.
Great central location. Beautiful staircase. Staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Spacious twin room. Comfy beds. Very clean. Definitely stay there again.
