...and not a lot else. Nowadays it is a swish waterfront development of cafes, bars, restaurants, a splendidly restored Norwegian Seaman's Church (where Cardiff-born Roald Dahl was baptised), and restored old buildings like grand old Pierhead Building, the galleried Coal Exchange (now a mid-sized music venue) and the informative Techniquest technology centre (see other reviews in Cardiff).

The most central hotel is the Park Thistle, which has always been very nice whenever I've gone to a function there. If you want a cheaper hotel within walking distance... Read review
