The attention to detail with the room's complimentary refreshments made it feel special, and the breakfast selection was truly impressive. However, the dining quality could be improved to match the hotel’s luxury status, and some of the leisure facilities felt a bit dated. Overall, it was a great experience for a weekend getaway.

I had a decent stay overall, with a fantastic room offering stunning views of Cardiff Bay. The service could use some improvement, especially during busier hours. While I enjoyed the spaciousness of my room, the dining experience was a bit chaotic and could be better organized. Some amenities and facilities, like pool use restrictions during the day, really affected my overall impression. Still, the hotel has a great ambiance and is making progress under new management.
