Top Cardiff Castle Hotel Reviews

The Parkgate Hotel

8/10 Good

"Mostly great, however with a couple of very big caveats! ...... Room was lovely, parking convenient, food good, bathroom very nice and staff helpful. the caveats? When we checked in, the car park booking had not been communicated to the car pack. We were also allocated a room with a double bed (we booked a king), and more alarmingly when we went to the room we were allocated, there was someone already checked in there - their luggage was in the room, although fortunately they were not there. This is a big security no-no! This should not happen! They said "oh sorry, we will give you another room", but this is bad. What if there was a single woman on her own in the room?"

The Coal Exchange Hotel

8/10 Good

"Easy to book. Easy parking. Room was lovely. Property is a little dark on the inside, due to the amount of dark wood used, but understand the reason as the history of the building. Great access to Cardiff bay. Lovely breakfast. Would definitely consider booking here again."

Cardiff Bute Terrace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best hotels I stayed in to be fair😎👌"

Royal Hotel Cardiff by Belvilla

10/10 Excellent

"Great location"

Clayton Hotel Cardiff

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel in city centre, very clean and breakfast was good. Air con was slightly loud but not too much of a problem."

Future Inns Cardiff Bay

8/10 Good

"This was a last minute booking. I was expecting a budget experience but this hotel exceeded expectations. Staff were very helpful, room was spacious and very comfortable. Very good value for a one night stay in the bay. I will return and recommend"

Leonardo Hotel Cardiff

8/10 Good

"Staff. Ok, this isn’t isolated to Leonardo in Cardiff but seems to be an issue everywhere in the UK. Unless you ask the right questions, you will not receive the information you NEED. For example, I pulled into the hotel parking area that is controlled by an arm and monitored by check in staff at the front desk. I paid £25 for an outdoor parking space. On check out, not one staffer said, “oh, by the way, this is the code to leave the parking area”. So when I got in my car, I arrived at the exit, the control arm didn’t raise. There wasn’t a communication device to call the hotel. I had to leave my vehicle and walk the 200meters to the front desk only to be told that I would need a code to leave. I ask, “why didn’t I get a code on check in?” The clerk says, “it would have been written in your room key sleeve”. I say, “it wasn’t, but should have been. You have a CCTV monitor there, maybe it would be a good idea to find out why your guest is sitting there wanting to leave.” “Oh sorry about that.” It’s not a big deal but……. The small important details that make the experience decent or amazing. Today, the staff were decent but failed to provide a good experience. Breakfast: terrible! Just terrible. Others may not see it the same way but I think I’m being reasonable. The scrambled eggs had flour or other additives rather than simply eggs and cream or eggs and milk. Not egg like substance or powdered eggs. The sausage was tasteless and the bacon a bit harsh. It just wasn’t edib"

Cardiff Sandringham Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely comfortable room we will definitely be going back"

easyHotel Cardiff

10/10 Excellent

"It's a 1 star hotel. So keep your expectations appropriate. The rooms are tiny but the beds are comfortable, shower is fine, air conditioning does well in 30+ degree heat, staff are friendly and helpful. And it's half the price of most other hotels in the area."
