Location
The hotel sits on the eastern side of the centre, under ten minutes on foot from Utilita Arena Cardiff and St David's shopping centre. Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Central Market and the Victorian arcades are within easy walking distance, and the Principality Stadium is a little further across town. Queen Street itself is one of Cardiff's main pedestrian shopping streets, so the walk into town is short and flat.
Rooms and eating
Room types include standard, family and accessible rooms, and some rooms are Premier Plus with extras such as faster Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is free throughout. The in-house restaurant, The Social, serves breakfast and dinner and has a bar, so you do not need to go out for a simple evening meal. The Social is open around the clock, offers a meal deal, and runs bar offers such as two-for-one cocktails, which keeps costs down on a budget trip.
Before you book
There is no on-site parking. The hotel points guests to NCP Dumfries Place nearby, with a discount available from reception. Some recent guest reviews mention lift problems, so if you need step-free access to an upper floor it is worth confirming with the hotel before arrival. Check-in and check-out times are not listed on the hotel page, so confirm them when you book if you are arriving early or leaving late.
