We had a lovely stay overnight, the room was spacious and well thought out, however for a suite it would have been nice to have a few extras such as bathrobes. The room and bathroom were both clean, and the jacuzzi bath is a lovely bonus. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and offered plenty of choice. Would happily stay again, great hotel for strolling around Cardiff Bay.

Pros: The staff was excellent, the location was great, the history and grandure of the building was interesting. Cons: 2 out of 3 rooms air conditioning wasn’t working. 1 out of 3 rooms the tv wasn’t working. The upkeep of the building needs some work.

Bedroom was a good size although the bathroom was very small. Good facilities in the room, tv too high on wall made it awkward to watch. Comfy bed, had a good night sleep. Fan in the room was handy as it was warm in the room.

Actual room, stay etc was great. Unfortunately marred by incredibly rude staff. Sent round in circles and made to feel very uncomfortable about having booked through a third party rather than directly.
