Top Pierhead Hotel Reviews

The Angel Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable stay in a lovely old fashioned building.Breakfast had everything you needed and was well cooked and presented We will definitely return Thankyou."

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Cardiff

8/10 Good

"The location is very close to the train station and bus loop. Also walking distance to the Shopping centre."

Future Inns Cardiff Bay

10/10 Excellent

"All great"

Park Plaza Cardiff

8/10 Good

"Good central location. Parking across the road in NCP was at a reduced rate if you book in advance. Plenty of spaces. Check in was easy. Overall clean and tidy hotel although it feels a bit old fashioned. Swimming pool was big (15m) and located on the sub ground floor. A bit of an odd layout means you go to the 1st floor reception and then down a narrow staircase into the pool area. Felt dark and odd with a few loungers, hot tub and steam room. Changing area was tired and in need to a revamp. Breakfast was limited and expensive. We popped to Costa around the corner where we had a much more fulfilling breakfast at a much reduced cost. The bedroom was spacious. Layout felt odd and unlike lots of other hotel room we have stayed at. Someone else left a review about the position of the TV and we agree. It felt like the most strangest place to locate it in the room. Bed was comfy and the room was peaceful. No traffic noise. Overall a decent hotel. I’d say a dated 4 star. I doubt I’d return."

Holiday Inn Express Cardiff Bay by IHG

8/10 Good

"Walking distance to the bay and town was really good, 10-15 minute flat walk. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The parking on site was a great help. Rooms were a good size, clean and nicely maintained. The toilet was very low! The lift was a problem as it would not go down to ground floor unless someone was on the ground floor wanting to go up."

Staybridge Suites Cardiff by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Super friendly staff. Easy to park. Room looked as though he had recently been upgraded, bathroom was lovely, kitchen facilities were very useful. Travelled with our dogs and they made sure we had a quieter room. Great location for mermaid quay, city centre, Utilita arena."

Cardiff Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel! Would be nice if there was an elevator to the basement parking lot"

Cardiff Bute Terrace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Super convenient, good price, warm, bed a bit hard but would recommend!!"

Novotel Cardiff Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel...excellent location for Utilita arena. Reception staff very helpful. Staff at breakfast were great, came to check that everything was ok. Great breakfast selection. Room and all areas of hotel were clean. Great night sleep despite being near a busy road...couldn't hear the traffic from the room. Would definitely recommend 😊"
