"Welcomed by a lovely, helpful lady, unfortunately I didn’t get her name. She took us next door and showed us where our room was, we had a twin room on the top floor, it was immaculately clean, very comfortable beds and bathroom very clean with toiletries supplied. Small private car park to rear of hotel, which is locked 10pm-7am. Bus stop directly outside into the town, or a 10 min walk. Would definitely stay again when in Cardiff."

Top National Museum Cardiff Hotel Reviews

Future Inns Cardiff Bay

8/10 Good

"It was a nice enough stay. After being there a few nights I found the bed and pillows to be not the most comfortable and struggled to sleep well, but that could just be me. The phone in the room didn’t work and the tv would lose connection intermittently. It meant ordering room service, etc had to be done by calling the hotel on your mobile and asking to be put through to the restaurant. The staff were always friendly and helpful and apologised for the inconvenience but nothing was able to get fixed during my 4 days there. Apart from that, the hotel is clean, conveniently located and has free parking. Them room service was good too."
