Best Castle Hotels

"Central location but Cardiff city on a Friday night is absolutely horrendous!! Noisy, rowdy, lots of drunks and extremely wild to the point when we got back to our hotel, we found the hotel had put a metal security barriers at the entrance and the security guy insisted to see our room keycard before letting us in!! Really felt like we were in a place that is quite unsafe."

"Spain 🇪🇸 style"

"Clayton was okay as far as hotels go, it was nice having a view of Cardiff from a top floor, staff were friendly too. The Gym was tiny for the size of the hotel, the bedroom was a standard double room, the reviews said that the Clayton had been newly refurbished, but felt that the room was dated. Due to windows not being able to be open due to H&S, there was no fresh air, just air con. The room was mostly clean, few stains on the carpet, and floor felt dusty. The hotel location was great, near the train station and in town, but for the cost, I was expecting something much better, as the night before we had a much cheaper hotel, and rooms came with kitchens, and were very modern - wish I had stayed at that one for the extra few nights."

"We arrived at Cardiff Central by train, which is 15mins walking to this Premier Inn. It was very welcoming and staff friendly, rooms clean, with as much tea and coffee, which you took from the travellers store at the main entrance. My only gripe is as I have dietary requirements, They couldn't cater for them and had to make do with what was on offer. No gluten free food at night, Only what I would call general burgers, lasagne, steak battered fish and chips. Only veg on offer was peas. In this day and age Hotels need to cater for a variety of people's health conditions. Vegan/vegetarians are not Gluten free or Ibs sufferers or Celiacs. Which are complicated problems. It would be helpful if they offered something which could be adapted. ."

"Wasn't great mostly due to the fact that you had Taxi drivers outside beeping horns all hours of the night. People fighting and shouting outside the hotel. As well as the Fire alarm going off at about 10:40pm. I had to check out by 04:50 Am to catch a train and I didn't get to sleep until about 2:30am This hotel is however right next to Cardiff Central Station so perfect for Travelling by train. Which is why I booked here. After explaining my stay to reception I asked for a bottle of water for my travels and it was given to me complimentary which I really appreciated. The hotel Staff were polite and welcoming, however and the room was quite clean. TV didn't work however which is a shame."

"The location is very central, right on the pedestrian street, but an old building with average facilities, and the service is not very warm and thoughtful. No breakfast yet"

"Not impressed. Stayed at the Marriot in Edinburgh the week before and was 100% happy so booked the Marriot in Cardiff. Very disappointed. Will not stay again."

"Very nice, clean hotel. Very convenient location right opposite the castle and a 5 minute walk to the centre. Definitely would recommend if visiting Cardiff. Staff were very friendly and a welcome Welsh biscuit on arrival was a very nice touch 😊"

"device was brilliant from checking in , they were very busy , but magee time to take our bags until our check in time . When we arrived home i realised I had left my purse hidden in our room 😢.
