Location and nearby attractions
The hotel is right in the middle of Cardiff city centre, with everything extremely walkable. From the hotel, you are right by loads of shops and cafes, and Cardiff Castle is just minutes away. Bute Park runs alongside the river and gives you glorious green space without leaving the city. The National Museum is nearby, and Cardiff's shopping streets and arcades provide hours of browsing fun.
Alongside swanky shopping centres, edgy restaurants and the impressive Principality Stadium, you'll find several historic features and buildings nearby, Victorian shopping arcades and the grand Civic Centre – containing the Portland stone-built City Hall – as well as the Cardiff Museum and notable government buildings.
Exploring Cardiff Bay and beyond
A short walk, bike or boat ride away from the centre is Cardiff's developed docklands area, Cardiff Bay, where you'll find waterfront dining and entertainment. This marina area has undergone dramatic redevelopment over the last 30 years, evolving from historic docklands to the cosmopolitan waterfront destination we know today.
Further out again, you'll find distinctive Cardiff suburbs, each with its own history and highly individual vibe. Many of these characterful residential areas have a surprising range of independent cafés, neighbourhood restaurants, boutique shops, and even a watersports-filled reservoir, all well worth a visit, even on a short weekend trip.
If possible, it's also worth considering planning your stay around a big event, as that's when the city really comes to life. You can watch sports and huge gigs in the 70,000-capacity Principality Stadium.
Tips for finding similar deals
Deals like this can often be found during the off-season in Wales. Checking sites like Booking.com, Expedia, and Groupon can reveal great off-season prices on hotels and cosy self-catering stays. Checking deals on a mobile device may also reveal special 'mobile only' deals and save extra pounds. Another trick is to check the hotel's website for special deals and last-minute breaks and book directly.
