Prime location
This hotel is typical Marriott, comfortable but not exciting. The location, however, is what makes it superb. Steps away from the railway station and in the midst of the city’s vibrant nightlife scene. Convenient to the castle as well — a must-see stop in Cardiff!

The hotel itself is fantastic. The rooms were hot, even though the air con was on and the bathrooms were even hotter! Really clean and staff are good, but the rooms are a bit dated.

Great hotel nice location once parked
The only gripe is the directions on Sat nav to the hotel. Needs to be prominent on check in details, I know it's not the hotels fault but....
