The Angel Hotel
Superb location, very close to shops and dinning options, right in the door of Cardiff Castle and very close to the Cardiff National museum. The room was clean, nice and the staff did the bed and changed my towels all days. Didn’t have breakfast, so can’t say anything about that. The lift was broken ...

The Spires Serviced Apartments Cardiff
Lovely apartment- perfect location for centre of Cardiff and accessing the castle, the Taff trail and Bute Park. Super clean, well equipped kitchen - all we could need. Only thing was the parking is an extra charge and was a little tight for space.

Park Lane Aparthotel
Nice little apartment to stay at, the only thing that let it down was how incredibly hot it was. There was a fan provided but it generally blew hot air back. I would come back but probably just in the winter.
