Location

The big advantage is the station: Cardiff Central is next door, so you can arrive by train and be checked in within minutes. The Principality Stadium is roughly ten minutes on foot, St Mary Street's bars and restaurants are just north, and Cardiff Castle is a short walk beyond. Cardiff Bay is reachable by bus or a longer walk south. For a day out, you can be at the castle in about fifteen minutes on foot and at the shops of St David's even sooner.

The hotel

Rooms follow the standard Premier Inn format. Thyme Bar & Grill on site handles breakfast and evening meals, which helps on busy event nights when nearby restaurants fill up. Accessible rooms are available. It's a sensible choice for anyone who wants a predictable room, an early breakfast and a short walk to the train home the morning after a game.

Practical points

There's no on-site car park. The hotel points guests to the 24-hour NCP on Pellett Street, which is chargeable, so if you're driving in for a big event, consider the train instead. On international and concert weekends, rooms near the stadium sell out early, so book well ahead.
