Friendly hotel in perfect location What a great hotel in a great location. A really lovely member of staff, Gina, is so worth a mention, what a superstar she is! On check-in she shared our excitement about the concert we were going to and gave us a big welcome. We met again at breakfast and chatted - always cheery and bright while working hard and paying attention to detail. Our rooms were great, no noise from outside, super comfy beds. Lovely bar and restaurant and bar on the first floor with views over the city. All in all, a fabulous overnight city break. Highly recommend.

In need of updating. Smallest double bed I have ever seen. Booked this for Stereophonics. Over priced tiniest double bed I have ever seen. Bathroom in desperate need for an upgrade. Shower is over a tiny dirty looking bathtub. Room run down. Staff were pleasant but room itself is definitely not up to scratch. No way a 4star.

Location ideal for Principality Stadium, but hotel standards are lacking! Chose hotel for it’s proximity to The Principality Stadium when going to watch The Stereophonics. This one along with all of the other hotels in Cardiff appear to charge a very high premium rate whenever there is an artist performing at The Principality! Have previously stayed in the Bristol Clayton and expected the standard of this hotel to be on a parr. Can not fault the staff as they were all friendly and helpful. We booked a deluxe double room, but I believe we may have been given an executive double as we had a coffee machine and warm fridge. We were on the top floor. The hotel is dated, tired and grubby as you can see from my photos. The bar area is tired and disappointing. The toilets were really dirty. The breakfast was shocking! Wish we hadn’t included it and ate out instead. Cooked breakfast was very poor quality with barely cooked bacon and very over done sausages. No pastries, croissants etc were provided at all!! My husband commented that it was the worst cooked breakfast he’d ever eaten in an hotel. Wouldn’t return or recommend. Stereophonics are amazing… hotel was beyond disappointing!!

Small rooms with no provision for luggage Smallish room given the this hotel like others tend to have a double and single in it. With the other furniture it leaves nowhere to put suitcases except on the floor (no luggage rack provided) and Less room for other bags. There is tea and coffee making, safe, iron and if you’re looking for the non slip mat for the bath (shower is over it) try looking in the bottom of the cabinet under the tv (of course). Bathroom is pokey, you open the door straight on to the toilet which seems to be a common design of the Clayton Hotels we found. There are tissues but no shower cap for the shower.

Not bad but could improve Stayed for one night ahead of an event at the Utilita Arena. Good points first - great location, staff were all warm & welcoming, nice reception area. Room on the 4th floor overlooking the railway line but had no issues with noise coming from the tracks. Room was lovely, the decor looked fairly recently refurbished as did parts of the bathroom. Ironing board & iron in the room and a good hairdryer. Bed was very comfortable and very little noise transfer from the neighbouring rooms. Breakfast was great, no complaints there. Not so good - the room was very warm as I couldn't get the air-con to work at all, there seemed to be some error code flashing on the control panel, appreciate I could have called reception but it was late, it had been a long day & I had an early start so I just left it. Not many of the TV channels worked either but again it was late so it wasn't a massive issue on this occasion. But the shower was awful, the shower had one fixed head which was so short the water just poured over the taps & trying to get under the water was seriously hindered by the taps as well, so not impressed with that. Overall though I would most likely stay again but get those showers sorted out please.
