Grabbed a last minute break away. Staff were friendly and hotel was nice with lots of history. Booked breakfast can’t say it was excellent just average hotel buffet. They could do with labels on maybe a tray to sit tea and coffee jugs on as unless you ask staff you don’t know which is which.

The breakfast wasn't great, especially the coffee, which was burnt. The hotel isn't heated, so you have to ask for a portable heater, but I think adding an electric heater to each room should work. Other than that, it was an amazing stay, great comfortable bed, in a striking décor and architecture. The staff were lovely!

On arrival entering the room, it was freezing due to the windows all been left open (it was minus temps out side). Trying to get the heating to work it wouldn't. When going back to reception they then offered us another room, when entering the room I discovered people where already staying in that room, so had to head back to reception to ask for another room. On been allocated a third room as both me and my wife where so tired we excepted, how ever the room had a small bed the carpet was lifting in placed there was mold around bath. The condition of the room was generally tired with paint falling off. In all the hotel was very tired and no worth the money paid for it

Please was beautiful, staff were really friendly and helpful. The rooms are lovely but lighting is a bit of an issue, quite dark in the rooms. The rooms could do with a bit of TLC, they are a bit tired looking. The jacuzzi bath wasn't very clean when we arrived and when we uses the jets, a load of gunk came out from stagnant water, which would suggest it's not used frequently and they don't do regular cleaning/maintenance. Overall though, was a lovely stay.

I stayed for 3 nights to be close to the wales stadium, the location is fantastic you 5 minutes walk from the Cardiff bay which goes to city center in 4 minutes (queen street) and is 2.50gbp, the staff are very friendly and happy to help, also there are is Danish bakery 3 minutes walk from there. As well the mermaid quay which is there the restaurants are. Also did I mention the room has a jacuzzi! I didn’t try that breakfast but smelled amazing.

It was lovely and what a special treat having a jacuzz in the room. What more could you want! Oh yeah! Hot drink in the late night bar would've been nice.

Unfortunately there was an event on and the morning after rigging/ Camara crew were so noisy in for breakfast Restaurant staff were inexperienced and why have spoons left in mugs that are taken from the table filled then brought back with spoons still left in them, food mediocre and lukewarm On check in put monies on room but at the small bar the bar staff could not work till so I paid with card and then on check out reception tried to make me pay again for the drinks. It was only when I showed him on my phone that the money had been taken from my account and wanted to speak to a manager that he conceded. All round I think there is a need for some training/retraining in some areas. Not one of our best stays.

When we checked in, the bbc were filming in the lobby. We were made to feel very uncomfortable from the start with staff stopping our taxi driving to the hotel entrance to drop us off and reception staff said we couldnt check in early and we had to plead with the rude receptionist to allow us to leave our bags so that we could go into town for a few hours and return later. The other staff later in the day were nicer but she was very unpleasant. The filming was happening regularly so we had to be silent whenever near reception. Our room at a glance looked great. Very spacious. But the lighting was poor, very dark with only 2 dim spotlights in opposite corners for light. The bed was a small double, it was a squash for two average height, average weight people. The worst part was how cold the room was. The thermostat kept defaulting to 17, i had to get up multiple times during the night to adjust it as it was freezing. The bathroom fan was not working and as a result there was a lot of damp on the ceiling. Overall a very disappointing stay as the place has real sentimental value to us as a couple but this stay was not to our expectations. We were made to feel unwelcome for the majority of the stay.

One of the worst options in Cardiff in my opinion. Facilities not working correctly (e.g. no hot water). Filthy rooms and 'king size' beds that were really 2 singles that were coming apart.

A wonderful amd beautiful hotel. Everything great, nut you should know that the heating is proved by oil heaters plugged into your room, so if you get cold, ask reception for an extra heater

The room was hot, no matter what we did with the air con. There was very little lighting in the room. The corner near the window was pitch black. There should have at least been a lamp there. The room was dirty. No battery case on the tv remote. And the electrics went completely off during the night so our phones didn’t charge and we had to have showers in the dark. Breakfast was cold and no option for eggs other than scrambled. This was a shared birthday night away and we were not comfortable. Glad to get home. Place has gone downhill.
