Premier Inn Cardiff Bay ★★★

📍 Bute Pl, Butetown

"Booked one night in this hotel for a theatre show. My wife and I had a room on the first floor. It was self service check that was easy to use . Parking was discounted in Q park multi storey next to hotel for 24 hours cost £11.25.Hotel is close to Cardiff bay restaurants and amenities. The hotel was clean and our room was clean too. Towels were fresh ,bed was comfy, coffee,tea,milk & sugars provided and extras if required were on a separate stand in the foyer if you needed any more. Hairdryer was provided. We paid for all you can eat breakfast. It was very good and catered for all tastes. Only let down was any vegetarian hot food had to be pre ordered as was not available at the counter when you queued up . Had to sit back down for 10-12 minutes for it to be cooked.I think that there should have been a note somewhere on their leaflet or literature mentioning this, or even when checking in to be seated that were told . Otherwise it was a great visit."

Novotel Cardiff Centre ★★★★

📍 Schooner Way, Butetown

"I feel like the cleaning service could have been better. Dirty towels left behind, cleaners forgetting their phones in the room, coming in to clean even if do not disturb sign placed and on checkout day before checkout time. It was very expensive for what was offered to be honest"

The Coal Exchange Hotel
7.7 (110 reviews)

The Coal Exchange Hotel ★★★

📍 Building Bay, The Exchange, Mount Stuart Square, Butetown

"I’m so glad we decided to stay at The Coal Exchange Hotel in Cardiff. I’d been given the very important job of finding a place to stay overnight for my friend’s special birthday. I didn’t really know where to start, so I compared prices of hotels in the area. I was surprised to find that the ‘budget’ hotels Premier Inn and Travelodge were no cheaper than The Coal Exchange for the given dates! I had a look at the photos and reviews and it looked perfect for a special occasion. It was steeped in history with the interior design staying true to the period in which it was built. Originally, as there were five of us, I had booked the sextuplet room. It looked amazing and we were all really excited about staying there. Unfortunately though, due to maintenance work being carried out on that part of the building, we had to change our plans to three double rooms right next to each other. The rooms were beautiful. Floor to ceiling double windows, opulent wallpaper, ornate period furniture and a lovely comfortable centrepiece bed. The bathrooms had gorgeous jacuzzi baths and stone basins. The following morning we had a delicious breakfast in Culley’s Restaurant situated inside the Coal Exchange. The staff here are very friendly and go out of their way to ensure you have the best stay. Can’t wait to go back."

Travelodge Cardiff Atlantic Wharf Hotel ★★★

📍 Atlantic Wharf, Hemingway Rd, Butetown

"Overall, we had a pleasant stay. However, there was quite a lot of noise from nearby construction work, which was disturbing at times. The room was also a little hot, and the fan provided was not sufficient to cool it down. In addition, the mattresses on the two single beds were not as comfortable as the double bed mattress. Hopefully, these issues can be addressed to make future stays more comfortable."

Staybridge Suites CARDIFF by IHG ★★★★
"The room is quite spacious and comes with kitchen facilities; complimentary freshly ground coffee is available at your leisure. However, the breakfast menu repeats every two days and offers limited choices, so I wouldn't recommend eating there—it doesn't offer great value for money. On the plus side, the hotel hosts a complimentary afternoon wine and social hour—a service not found at other hotels—and the staff are excellent. Highly recommended!"

Premier Inn Cardiff Bay ★★★
"Stayed for a graduation ceremony held very close at the Wales Millennium Centre. Being in Cardiff Bay was excellent for food the night before with a lot of restaurants to choose from. Large car park next door to the hotel was very convenient, plus 25% discount for hotel guests was a bonus."

Novotel Cardiff Centre ★★★★
"Room is clean but aged. Drinking water provided once only, not replenish daily. Not feeling welcome by reception as they appeared to be robotic and just doing what they are paid to do. Kettle provided, no mini fridge. No F&B outlet nearby, just a 3rd party run restaurant next to hotel lobby. 20 mins walk to city center. Below par Accors hotel."

Travelodge Cardiff Atlantic Wharf Hotel ★★★
"While the front desk staff person was super friendly, we had a very musty smelling room and absolutely boiled on a very hot night. We thoroughly enjoyed an evening down at the wharf, but the room was not great. We were told that the hotel is slated to be pulled down and that upgrades had not been done for a while. It was just the one night for us, and off to the airport in the morning (short 15 mins to Cardiff airport), but not a great hotel experience. Must admit, the price was a budget price, so we were not expecting too much!"
