“I'd recommend this charming, historic hotel; its Victorian architecture is a lovely counterpoint to Cardiff's modern energy. Its proximity to both Cardiff Castle and the city's arcades makes it easy to experience the best of the area, and the on-site restaurant is a real plus after a day of exploring. If you appreciate classic elegance and a central location, this could be a perfect choice.”
