Future Inns Cardiff Bay

Future Inns Cardiff Bay

8/10 Good
"This is a great hotel if you’re travelling by car! It’s close to major roadways, and there seemed to be abundant outdoor parking (I’ve seen how… “exciting” some of the indoor parking lots can be in the UK). It’s a bit off the path of you’re travelling by Train, but the hotel doesn’t claim to be near transit. You’re within easy walking distance to Mermaid Quay, a plaza with lots of dining options, and harbour tours."

"Easy to book. Easy parking. Room was lovely. Property is a little dark on the inside, due to the amount of dark wood used, but understand the reason as the history of the building. Great access to Cardiff bay. Lovely breakfast. Would definitely consider booking here again."
