Premier Inn Cardiff Bay
Premier Inn Cardiff Bay is a budget hotel on Bute Place, right beside the Wales Millennium Centre and a short stroll from the Mermaid Quay waterfront. It's a practical base for a show, the Senedd or a weekend around the Bay, with an in-house restaurant and family rooms.

Why stay here
The location is the main reason to book. You can walk out of the door to the Wales Millennium Centre, the Senedd and the Bay's waterfront bars and restaurants, which makes it a good fit for theatre-goers and anyone who wants to spend the evening by the water rather than in the city centre.
Rooms and food
Rooms follow the familiar Premier Inn format, with family and accessible rooms available and Premier Plus rooms for a few extras. Wi-Fi is free. Thyme Bar & Grill on site serves breakfast and dinner, and breakfast is a help-yourself spread, which is handy with children. Premier Plus rooms add faster Wi-Fi and a few extra comforts. Accessible rooms are available, and the hotel is listed as accessible, which matters in a neighbourhood built around waterfront walking.
Parking and getting around
There's no car park at the hotel. The nearest option is the chargeable Q-Park Cardiff Bay next door, which takes cards only and has a 2m height limit. Without a car, Cardiff Bay station and regular buses link the Bay with the city centre, and the barrage walk and boat trips start nearby.
