Cardiff hotellit lähellä Cardiff International Arena

Miinukset: Impeccable location excellent facility throughly enjoyed

Plussat: I liked our view of the bay and the hotel was lovely.

Miinukset: It's the kind of hotel that takes itself too seriously. It was billed as a five star resort, but the only difference I could see between it and any other hotel in the states was the bidet in the bathroom.

Plussat: I booked for a superior room and when we came to check in they had upgraded us to one of the top floor suites

Plussat: Like all the facilities available to us, nice relaxing stay. Weather could have been kinder, but didn’t interfere with our stay.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: We love staying here, it was our second visit. The rooms are lovely, great views, clean and comfortable. The food in the admiral restaurant is amazing. We will definitely be visiting again

Plussat: Inexpensive...half the price of some other local hotels. Perfectly poached eggs.....not easy. Great view from my bedroom veranda.

Miinukset: Some of the decor was a little questionable.

Plussat: - Aamiainen oli aika hyvä (erityisesti mehut olivat tuorepuristettuja). - Näköala Atlannin rannalla oli aikamoisen upea. - Sänky oli leveä ja hyvä, joskin hieman pikkaisen liian paljon vuodevaatteiden pesussa käytetään valkaisuainetta.

Miinukset: - Onko hotelli 5-tähden arvoinen? Ainakaan 1-kerroksen huone ei anna sitä kuvaa kohtalaisen useassa hotellissa matkanneena. Lisäksi huone olisi kaivannut jo pientä pintaremonttia. - Parkkipaikka oli koko ajan täyteen varattu, kun tulimme takaisin hotelliin iltaisin matkoiltamme. Onneksi vieressä oli kaupungin oma parkkipaikka, mihin saimme auton vietyä jokaisena iltana (hinta oli kyllä aika korkea 20 £/24 h, kuten hotellissakin olisi ollut) - Aamiaisen sisältö oli täysin samanlainen jokaisena aamuna (3-yön matka). Kyllä 5-tähden hotellissa pitäisi jotain vaihtelua tässä olla. - Sijainti keskustaan nähden on hieman syrjäinen n. 2,5 km.

Plussat: Bar & restaurant staff were very friendly & courteous, breakfast was good too

Miinukset: The room was very dated needed an update on all facilities in it , we were given a room for people with physical disabilities, I went for a two night stay with my daughter & hoped for a more modern luxurious room to enjoy but instead didn’t want to spend time in it . We were going to have some spa treatments but decided against it as the reviews for the spa were not good either , as a result probably wouldn’t rebook , sorry!

Plussat: spacious , neat , clean and great view

Miinukset: The Airconditioner is not working well at all

Plussat: Beds and pillows

Plussat: Good location for Millenniuim Centre. Light and clean. Great room. Reception staff were helpful, pleasant and friendly, however don't expect that from the restaurant and bar staff who seem to suffer from no management or manners. The food is revolting.

Miinukset: The food and service in The Admiral restaurant, which is claimed to be fine dining, is AWFUL. Although seated quickly at our pre-booked table, we waited for over half an hour before we could attract anyone's attention just to request an aperitif. There seemed to be no method. It was chaos. We got our food, which in my case was unbelievably stodgy quinoa, with some (I imagine) sous vide lamb cutlet and truly awful, bitter sauces drizzled about (incl wild garlic). I asked for a side of 'Rainbow Coleslaw' which was actually exactly the same as the salad that accompanied my starter and was unbearably bitter; inedible. My partner had steak and chips, which were OK - though hardly a feat of fine dining. Our bottle of wine also took over half an hour to arrive and when we reminded a waiter (not the one who'd taken the order as she'd vanished) he behaved as if he would 'fix it' as a favour. Ridiculous. Breakfast was the same. Chaos. Pots of tea plonked down heavily onto the table; no words or pleasantries, no 'You're welcome' in response to our 'Thank you's'. The toasting arrangement is ridiculous for the volume of traffic. The baked beans had run out. The scrambled egg was gag-worthy.

Plussat: Size of the room was great. Breakfast excellent value for money.

Miinukset: Room smelt like smoke...either previous occupants or the smokers outside the front door and it was coming in the room via ventilation?

Plussat: feels really safe and its a beautiful place too stay , stayed a few times always has a good sleep

Miinukset: not having kettle in the room , as i have fibrmyalgia and up and down too the kitchen is a lot for me

Plussat: I booked a family room, the beds were huge and sooooo comfortable. Breakfast was fab. Defo stay again.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Premiere rooms are lovely

Miinukset: Needs better ventilation in the bathrooms

Plussat: The bed was comfy

Miinukset: The air con woukd not work properly

Plussat: The room is very big and new like hotel.

Miinukset: The carpet int he room is quite dusty, and my friend were having a hard time to adopt

Plussat: Clean, friendly and surprisingly quiet

Plussat: The second room that I stayed in was so clean and smelt nice. The price was really good for everything. There were lockers in that room. Bathrooms in the rooms are the ones like in hotels, spacious and fine. Common room was big and clean. The staff with piercing on her nose, was so nice and kind when I wanted to change my room.

Miinukset: The first room that I was placed was not clean, dirt and tissues all over the ground and it was smelling like a mix of sweat, feet and perfume. There were not any lockers in the room and the first staff (she was so unfriendly and morose) that I have talked was saying that there is not any other available room so I can not change (although there were other available rooms). I told her that I had valuable items and the room was dirty, but she told me that they do not provide lockers in the rooms anymore and refused to help me to find another room. Thanks to the other staff girl with the piercing, she helped me to find a much better room with lockers after I talked with the previous unfriendly staff.

Plussat: Bed was so comfy excellent staff clean and quiet food was lovely could do with chips not crisps

Miinukset: Nothing all excellent

Plussat: Lovely and clean, friendly staff.

Miinukset: Rooms were too warm and beds were hard

Plussat: Absolutely amazing location and ideal for the Cardiff Half

Plussat: The city centre location is unparalleled.

Miinukset: The initial room offered had a lingering damp smell that was that was unacceptable. Having stayed at the hotel a number of times due to it's ideal city centre location, the familiarity has led to noticeable disappointments. Rooms are clean but tired, bath rooms, again, are clean but tiles are damaged with grubby grout. For the money you'd except better.

Miinukset: The room was spacious and very clean, staff lovely. The room was chilly and the heating wouldn't come on ! I noticed you can see through the edges of the windows in the room , the draught was flowing in ! that's why the room was chilly as well, don't really want the curtains closed all the time to keep heat in.

Plussat: Well presented, clean, tidy and in a fantastic location. Value for money, 100%. The staff were very accommodating too.

Plussat: Rooms were very spacious, very clean and staff were so lovely and friendly, it made us feel so welcome. We couldn’t believe how close we were to everything, couldn’t have picked a better hotel.

Miinukset: Floor boards were very creeky, you could here the person above you walking around in the early morning. Corridor had quite a musty smell but neither botherd us too much, wonderful stay.

Plussat: The staff were friendly and professional, breakfast was excellent

Plussat: The receptionist made checking in so easy after a very stressful journey. I couldn’t thank her calmness and efficiency enough.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Staff are excellent.

Miinukset: Not a great selection on the evening room service menu. We don't eat meat or dairy, so we weren't able to order any food.

Plussat: Paikka ok ja aamupala

Miinukset: Likaiset huoneet. Haju ongelma HUONEESSA.

Plussat: Traditional older city centre hotel in a great location. Check in receptionist was really friendly and helpful, room was really nice very big with a huge comfy bed. Late evening after the theatre had a drink in the bar which actually had more atmosphere than the bar across the road (Henry's). Nice place to have a drink.

Plussat: Aamiainen hyvä

Miinukset: Siistimmät huoneet, haisi viemärit

Plussat: Nice and central, staff friendly, comfy bed. Only there from 7pm to 6am so didn't get to enjoy restaurant or bar.

Miinukset: There were no signs of how to get from the car park to the hotel. When you drive in you don't necessarily see the front door. It was raining heavily and when I got out of the car I didn't know where to go, which meant a few seconds getting my bearings in the rain! For anyone reading this, the entrance is through the arch then left for 50 yards.

Plussat: Location is perfect. Staff were totally professional.

Miinukset: Car park was too expensive £17 for one night on top of the hotel bill.

Plussat: Food was great

Miinukset: Spa facilities - jacuzzi was drained, £30 for car parking and valet ( which wasn’t done) £25 for extended checkout which we looked forward to relax in jacuzzi after half marathon, only visit Cardiff once a year for this event and run for charity, so thought we would treat ourselves to a £300 a night treat, what a waste of money:-(

Plussat: Absolutely loved it come here twice a year and everyone is always lovely to us

Plussat: The breakfast was excellent, as was the location right in the centre. Bed was very comfortable and staff were friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: We were randomly allocated one of the accessible rooms, the room was fine, but the bathroom left a lot to be desired. There was no lid on the toilet and no shelf in the shower to put toiletries on, both I would really have expected to see in a Hilton.

Plussat: Lovely staff and clean. Great bed and huge room! Unfortunately the hotel was dated and looked in need of a re-vamp. When booking I thought parking was included but realised on booking confirmation that its not and its quite a price. Amazing location, perfect for shoppers and concerts.

Miinukset: Parking facilities and dated appearance of hotel

Plussat: Great sized room and bathroom. Handy kettle for that early morning cuppa and a great hairdryer too. The shower was lovely. The beds were comfortable and the TV huge! Perfectly located for the Cardiff Half Marathon. The staff are wonderful here, especially the concierge.

Miinukset: We didn’t touch the aircon but the room went from cool to hot throughout the night. We had an awful view from our window which was disappointing. The jacuzzi had been drained so we couldn’t use it.

Plussat: Great location next to Cardiff Castle. Room was very clean and comfortable.

Miinukset: Room was very noisy, plumbing noises all through the night.

Plussat: Enjoyed the fact that it was within walking distance to some interesting places (castle, museum, Sophia Gardens) and Queen St shopping centre.

Miinukset: Didn't like the noise of the streets bars but i was in a room on the wrong side of the hotel, a busy main rd was quite noisy but that wasn't a reason to complain.... Overall i thoroughly enjoyed the stay as did my friends

Plussat: Everything from front desk, facilities and bedroom was excellent. Thank you

Miinukset: N/a

Plussat: The location of the hotel is ideal, the presentation, staff and facilities are exceptional, friendly and highly recommended. My wife and I wish we could've stayed longer, explored and enjoyed the hotel and facilities more than we did. We would highly recommend to everyone.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: The whole thing all the staff very helpful and was very clean

Miinukset: There was nt anything I did nt like

Plussat: Liked buffet style breakfast but hot food was dry and had to wait for replenishments. Liked size / cleanliness of room and common areas. Staff were all friendly.

Miinukset: Would have been better to have more transparency re cost of parking / parking arrangements. Was invited / suggested to make sure to use spa facilities during stay but jacuzzi was not working (and had not been for 3-4 days previously) - I was really looking forward to that and was disappointed not to be warned in advance at reception or spa reception. Evening meal was expensive and poor quality.

Plussat: Everything was perfect.

Plussat: Clean and comfortable

Miinukset: Food, greater choice. Silly position of basin tap.

Plussat: Fantastic position within minutes walk to the bay. Rooms were a very good size, very clean. Beds were clean and so comfortable. Very good breakfast with a variety of cereals and cooked food on offer. Staff were first class, very obliging and so friendly. We will certainly stay here again when next in Wales.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: The hotel had a most excellent Scottish lady on reception. She was very kind and helpful. Whatever you pay her, please double it.

Plussat: Good breakfast and bathroom

Miinukset: Noisy and air con kept coming on all night despite turning off and down. No instructions found on how to shut off the noise. V little sleep due to this

Plussat: Good breakfast plenty choice walk around the wharf

Miinukset: Door slamming late at night " 12.30 am + " need ( soft closers ) on room doors

Plussat: The room was nicely decorated and plenty space. Bed was comfortable

Plussat: Was convenient, clean, friendly. Great WiFi

Miinukset: No sockets next to the bed, was a bit dated.

Plussat: Big bed very comfortable. Breakfast was ok, nice selection of continental and hot breakfast. The hotel is situated by a lake, the balcony which over looks the lake was absolutely stunning. Staff very professional especially when the fire alarm went off in the morning and everyone was asked to leave the building safely until they had checked it was safe to enter.

Miinukset: View of the room wasnt over looking the stunning lake this was a little disappointing but I guess that's just pot luck really.

Plussat: Everything The beds are amazing

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Bed and pillows were really comfy , we had a car park view , the other side of the hotel over looks the marina
