Rooms very hot. Air con didnt really work and the first room we were in didnt have a window you could open. We asked to be moved rooms to one with a window which wasnt a problem at all. The window only opened inches! Breakfast too expensive. No fans available

Fab hotel in great location
Amazing location, lots to do by hotel and free parking is a win win. Train station within walking distance, Cardiff city around 20-25min walk. Lots of eateries within walking distance. Hotel room very spacious with everything you need. Hotel staff very helpful & friendly. Hotel bar nice with reasonable prices. Had food in bar on first night which was nice, ordered a pizza on third night which was awful, tasted like a frozen one, definitely not a freshly made one and at £16 I was not happy. Complained to waiter who said he would get the chef but he never came. Have had better pizzas from Iceland! That is the only criticism I have on the hotel, everything else was superb and I’d definitely stay here again.

beds are rock solid and constant noise throughout the night so we couldn’t sleep. we had to leave at 1am due to us not being able to sleep and all the noise. our key cards kept not working so we had to go to reception many times to get them reset. all in all, not the best stay.
