    Dated in parts. No warming towel rail. Room was not tended to on second day of stay. Door lock failed (unavoidable possibility).

    Comfortable bed, clean, very nice staff

    Perfect location for Cardiff Castle, exceptional staff and deserving of its 4* rating.

    Lack of hanging space in the bathroom. With a small tweak of additional hooks or towel rails this would have been 10/10.

    All staff were exceptional. Our room was spacious and well appointed. The beds were extremely comfortable. The bathroom had just been refurbished. Despite the fact our room was just off the central atrium space, it was very quiet. Location for Cardiff Castle event perfect. Breakfast quality and selection very good.

    I had a very unfortunate experience where the gentleman who seemed to be leading the breakfast team assumed that my partner (male, visibly older than me) was the person who made the booking, asked him for his surname for us to access breakfast. Even when I mentioned that the booking was in my name, he continued to speak only to my partner, and barely acknowledged or made eye contact with me. It seems like there were some misogynist assumptions in play here.

    The room was pristine and very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent and well-organised. The bar staff were very helpful and happy to make drink recommendations. Reception staff were also very welcoming and happy to help.

    No porter to help with luggage so we had to ask the girls on reception which was awkward for them if only one person was there.

    Very good location near the Castle and the major shopping centre. The room had everything we needed except a plug near a mirror (for drying your hair). The staff were very helpful, particularly Sara at reception who was extremely patient while I tried to negotiate the Hilton Honors digital system (which is not user-friendly). There was plenty to eat at breakfast but we didn’t eat at Graze, the in-house restaurant. We also found the local NCP car park nearby and were able to leave our car there for 48 hours (though it wasn’t cheap). We would stay here again.

    There was no fridge or bottled water in the bedroom and very limited coffee and no ordinary English Tea in the bedroom. There was no indication in the room as to whether the tap water was drinking water.

    Bedroom and bathroom were very clean and the shower was nice and hot and good pressure. Swimming pool and spa etc was excellent.
