Hotel Hell

Advantages: Nice decor
Disadvantages: Service, Staff, Prices and Clendliness

...in the £130 a night Marriott Hotel in the heart of Cardiff. The Marriott stands tall in the centre of Cardiff, just minutes from the shopping area its ideal for anyone who can afford to stay there going on a shopping trip. Luckily for me it was very close to where I was working which was an added bonus. By the time I had finished I was an absolute zombie and staggered through the streets at 3 a.m. clutching my little bag. My first view of the Marriott ...
...say I cannot recommend the Marriott Cardiff to anyone, its by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed in; and the service the worst I have ever received. I must point out that the list of services available here were limited, this literally is a hotel that you stay in and don't get involved in any form of activity. If such facilities were available its certainly not made apparent without having to ask. ...

Etap Hotel in Cardiff

Advantages: Clean rooms, friendly staff, good food and no hassle
Disadvantages: Similar hotels just seem to be slightly better

...is tremendous. The Etap was an 8/10 from the PTI's 9/10. The cost was great, I got a deal as I booked online and well in advance so it should really be a 5 star rating. The room was clean, shower was hot and good pressure, which some hotels lack due to the overusage, breakfast was good not great but good. The staff were the best part, they were friendly, offered to help me to my room as I had a lot of bags for work. I declined though as I am a photographer ...

Review of Etap Hotel, Cardiff

Expensive but luxurious

Advantages: Luxurious, Lively Cardiff Bay Location
Disadvantages: Price, Distance From City Centre

Situated in Cardiff Bay, St Davids Hotel and Spa is Cardiff's only five star rated hotel. Don't be suprised if, while being pampered in the luxury marine spa or enjoying drinks in Tides bar, you catch sight of a few famous faces! St Davids Hotel is four miles from the city centre, making it quieter than central hotels but less convenient for tourists planning to go shopping or sightseeing. Transport is available into the city centre by train and ...
...biggest waterfront development. Since it was regenerated, it has become a major attraction for visitors to Cardiff. A range of attractions are available, including water tours, Techniquest discovery centre and the Welsh Assembly building. There are also a selection of stylish bars and restaurants within the Atlantic Wharf development which provide top quality drinks and dining. Rooms: With prices starting at £84 per room per night, St David's hotel ...

Review of St. David's Hotel and Spa, Cardiff

Bless them for trying but this hotel does not deliver

Advantages: central
Disadvantages: lazy impolite staff, uncomfortable beds, very noisy, bad breakfast, next to no parking

...to low budget hotels. However the photos of the owner john malkovic looking pained and angst ridden which you see in the foyer are the best way to explain what your stay in this very noisey soulless hotel will be like, with staff who are totally uninterested and with only 20 or so parking spaces for its hundreds of rooms. The small single beds are uncomfortable and when i politely rang down to reception to ask what time the road works outside would ...
...the workmen stay in the hotel and would have mentioned if they were working late... as though this was my imagination! we were told a hot breakfast was on offer only to find that this involved (still warm) hard boiled eggs... i would have been happier in a travellodge. ...

Review of The Big Sleep Hotel, Cardiff

"Warning" be careful when 'Cancelling' a booking!!!

Advantages: to warn other members
Disadvantages: unfortunateley The premier inn is not upto its standards

...cancelling a booking at 'The Premier Inn' - Cardiff West, to make sure you keep a Cancellation Reference until the date you previously made the booking date have passed! Back in March, I provisionally made a booking, because I wanted tickets for a U2 gig @ the Millennium Stadium but unfortunately I only managed to get tickets for Sheffield Arena....So, come April when the venue was confirmed, I phoned The Premier Inn - Cardiff West and spoke to ...
...bank for £212.00 from The Premier Inn - Cardiff West!! Straight away I phoned them to tell them what has happened and they say if I don't have a "Cancellation Number" then they can’t deposit my monies owed? I wasn't given a cancellation number and even if I did have a cancellation number I would not keep it for another two months thinking oh better keep that just in case they take payment?...No! No person in their right mind would do! I spoke to ...
