Top National Museum Cardiff Hotel Reviews

Clayton Hotel Cardiff

10/10 Excellent

"Good location clean safe"

Future Inns Cardiff Bay

10/10 Excellent

"From the welcome received to the final goodbye, all the staff were first rate, Friendly, helpful and nothing seemed too much trouble. The room was well fitted out, little surprised that in this day only an “in bath” shower was in the room but it didn’t cause us any issues, though we do, at 80 years, prefer walk in showers. Another comment, NOT a criticism as this a general observation for most hotels we’ve stayed in which is good number, why in a room for two people do hotels only offer one comfortable chair? We would definitely stay at this Futura hotel again and based on this experience use Futura in another city."

Novotel Cardiff Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic weekend away! The management gave us an upgrade for our special weekend. The hotel has a nice atmosphere."

Park Plaza Cardiff

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel with lovely big rooms, ate in the main restaurant the food was delicious with lots of variety, on the downside our room overlooked the main road opposite the pubs and the noise was deafening, stopped around 3am.final verdict is lovely rooms and hotel but overpriced drinks and too noisy if staying in a road facing room."

The Angel Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, very central, and great to have onsite parking which even though cost £18 was still cheaper than any other carpark around. It does need updating and some TLC but our room was clean and everything we needed for a good night's sleep, after all we were out all day and just needed a base. Staff were very friendly and helpful. It was also good value for money"
