The Parkgate Hotel

The building and rooms

The hotel occupies a historic building in the city centre, and its rooms are designed around that setting, with no two quite the same. It was named AA Hotel of the Year for Wales in 2024. The hotel's parent group, The Celtic Collection, was named AA Group of the Year at the same awards, and the hotel has its own history page for anyone curious about the building.

Spa, dining and afternoon tea

The Spa at The Parkgate is a small, boutique spa and gym for guests and day visitors. The Sorting Room restaurant serves lunch and dinner, and the Cwrt Lounge is the place for afternoon tea, so you can book in for a meal or treatment without staying the night. Treatments and spa time can be booked separately, so it works for a pampering afternoon in town as well as an overnight stay.

Where you are

Westgate Street runs along the side of the Principality Stadium, and Cardiff Castle, Bute Park and the main shopping streets are a short walk away. On event days the area is busy, so book early if you are coming for rugby or a concert. Queens Vaults and other city-centre pubs are a minute or two away. Rugby fans should note that rooms on international weekends tend to go well ahead, so plan well ahead for match and concert dates.
