Top Roath Hotel Reviews

Tŷ Newport

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay! Rooms were very cold as the AC was quite powerful and even when off it was very cold. But aside from that was an amazing place to stay. Staff were lovely. Food was great."

The Parkgate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing! Had a brilliant time for our anniversary. They were very attentive and even threw in a glass of prosecco to celebrate and a cake at the end. The room room was very comfortable however, there were a few bits of hair on the carpet and curtains but nothing major. The thermal spa was amazing."

Park Plaza Cardiff

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was in a good central location close to the castle and various bars and restaurants as well as the main shopping precinct. All the staff we spoke to were very polite and helpful. The pool, steam room and jucuzzi were a good size and very clean. The hotel bar and associated external terrace was a nice place to relax and the bar prices were quite reasonable for a city centre hotel. We did not eat dinner at the hotel but the breakfast was a good standard. There is no parking at the hotel but there are several multi-storey car parks near by ranging in price from £26-£35 for 24hrs at the time of our visit."

Village Hotel Cardiff

8/10 Good

"I was visiting family so out of the room from roughly 11:00am - 11:30. The first night sleeping was uncomfortable due to what were not even extreme temperatures. I asked the receptionist for a fan to be delivered to my room and she confirmed this would happen as I had an option to borrow one locally. I returned back to the room after 11pm and the fan wasn't there after undressing ready for bed I should have contacted reception again as I had another uncomfortable night's sleep. Disappointed!"

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Cardiff

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very helpful in answering questions and arranged our taxi from the hotel to the airport. Location is very close to train station and walking distance to Cardiff Castle, restaurants, and many other amenities. The room was comfortable and very clean. Bed was good and the air conditioning appreciated."
