We were not able to stay in the hotel we had booked on a Saturday night. We found this place by looking at Wotif. It was all that it promised to be - a clean and comfortable place to stay. Kate who welcomed us was genuinely hospitable and ensured that we would be comfortable. We found the room very spacious,... More

I stayed here last month, just passing through as it is the only accommodation I could find short notice in the area. The lady at the desk needs a crash course in hospitality and manners. Extremely rude is an understatement. The rooms are horrendous. the carpet was destroyed in stains. the decor is 1970's . and the walls inside are... More

I recently stayed at the Cardiff Motor Inn due to a family event who live locally. We brought 3 rooms, one for myself and partner, his brother and wife and his parents. Upon arrival we were pleasently suprised with hotel, it was clean and tidy. Later that evening we left to attend function and in a rush we left our... More

Dinner at the Panthers Club across the road was a very short walk which was lucky as... More

Stayed here for business for a night. The rooms are very large, as is the bathroom. The decor is quite dated, but not a huge issue. Unfortunately the air con was a back to back which was noisy. The lighting in the room was not enough. The service seemed very decent. Location is good with food options at walking distance.

Rude attitude and awful service. I made my booking with email but when I arrived this rude woman didn't even made eye contact and rudely told me she has no accommodation available. When I tried to leave she told me they have accommodation in another town if I was interested even though I told her we are here for business... More
