I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the good side, the location was superb, making it easy to explore Cardiff. The breakfast was also of very high quality, with plenty of choices. However, I encountered some major issues with the dining experience during Christmas lunch, which was quite disappointing, and the overall service felt lacking at times. Although the hotel offers a great setting and some fantastic features, it's clear they could improve in areas related to service and dining during peak times.

The hotel boasts a fantastic central location, just a short walk from shopping areas and attractions. The rooms are spacious and mostly comfortable, but I did notice a faint musty smell in mine. The staff is accommodating and resolved my issues promptly. However, the parking situation could be problematic during busy times, and improvements could be made in room cleanliness.

I had a pleasant stay overall, with a central location that made exploring Cardiff easy. The staff's friendliness and helpfulness were highlights, though my interaction with reception at check-in could have been better. While the breakfast had some good options, it fell short in quality when I visited. There's a free fitness center nearby, which was a plus. However, the lingering smell in the hotel was quite off-putting.
