Top Cardiff Castle Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Hotel Cardiff

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel, great staff. Rooms are a little dated but very clean. Loses points for sound insulation, it wasn't great. I could hear upstairs moving around (a lot) and a lot of next doors conversation. However, it is in a great location and the bed was really comfortable."

Novotel Cardiff Centre

8/10 Good

"The Hotel is well located and easy to reach by car and an easy walk into city centre. The car park is a bonus, but very expensive! Our room was fairly sizeable for a group of 3. But the amount of tea and coffee provided needs to be improved. The bathroom, although fairly clean, was dated and in poor repair in some areas. The power of the shower was very poor, but the bath was excellent. Pool was lovely as was the steam room, sauna and jaquzzi, but was crowded at times due to half term holidays. No staff monitoring! In general a good stay, but the parking charges might put me off staying again"

Hotel Indigo Cardiff by IHG

8/10 Good

"Rooms were lovely, staff friendly but restaurant a bit off. The fact you have an entrance and dedicated lift for it but no menu on the ground floor was a bit off. Once you’re up there it’s kind of oh well I guess I’ll eat up here. Back to the rooms very quiet and extremely comfortable"

The Angel Hotel

8/10 Good

"We have stayed 3 nights at the Family Room. The cleaning lady is just very friendly but also keeping the room clean. The hotel is at great location, close to the Cardiff Castle and high street. The choice of breakfast buffet is decent except the coffee. However, it really needs some serious upkeep. The room has dampings, the radiator is not operational in one of the rooms, only one lift is operational during our visit."

Cardiff Sandringham Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Me, my mum and my teenage daughter stayed for one night and we really enjoyed our stay here. The location is excellent. The staff were friendly and the room was comfortable, very spacious and clean for two of us in a twin. There is no elevator, so they changed our room straight away to being on a lower floor for my mum. The front desk has someone there 24 hours which was great as we could come and go whenever and didnt need to worry about coming back late after the theatre. The earlier check in at 2pm and the later check out at 11am was great! The decor is dated but homely. We parked at st davids whuch is a short few minutes walk away, and was £34 fir 24 hours, which is not too bad. Overall, really good value for money."

The Coal Exchange Hotel

8/10 Good

"I had booked two rooms for two nights in this beautiful historic building which is less than a 10 minute walk to the bay. The reception staff and the two ladies overseeing in the dining room when we had breakfast were all lovely and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble with queries and requests. Unfortunately mine and my partner's room could have been cleaner in places i.e. in the bathroom for example the base of the sink tap was filthy which I cleaned along with some other areas. Unfortunately the wet room is stained in places. There was also a patch of stained carpet by the window. One of the cups and one of the glasses had not been washed or not checked thoroughly and also the kettle was dusty. I did not raise this at the hotel as we were overall pleased with our stay but my sister did raise the issue with the window in her bathroom which was resolved very quickly. Hopefully this is not reflective of the hotel as I would not hesitate booking there again but just a thorough check and proper deep clean of our room prior to our arrival would have enabled me to give top marks."
