The hotel is perfectly situated, just a stone's throw from the heart of Cardiff, nestled in a delightful area near Bute Park. The rooms are spacious, boasting a good-sized en-suite bathroom with a fantastic shower and all the usual amenities, creating a friendly and welcoming ambiance. However, the service, though accommodating in its attempt to cater to dietary needs, lacked the finesse expected, with the manager's absence affecting the provision of full information. The location earns top marks for being close enough to the vibrant city center yet offering a serene retreat. The dining experience provided a pleasant backdrop with music at the right volume, along with the inclusion of local delights like Welsh cakes, although the use of seasonal products was missed. A bit more attention to detail on the service side could elevate the experience even further.
