Accomodations were good and staff friendly and helpful. The steak house across the street, Miller & Carter Cardiff Bay, was excellent. First realy good, really outstanding steak I have had in Europe. It was difficult to find the hotel but after that all was good

Great hotel. Staff very good. Bed super comfy. I just found the room too hot. The air conditioning was making a lot of noise but didn’t seem to cool the room. So I didn’t sleep very well sadly.

Could be better - room and facilities fone

Not attractive setting opposite industrial area and building site but clearly a development area. Restaurant dinner was disappointing and service was slow - dishes were not cleared during breakfast which was basic but ok.
