We came to visit the National Gallery which was easily accessible from the hotel and the railway station.I have walking issues but everything was so conveniently accessible.The bed was excellent-no lumpy mattresses etc.-and afforded a good night's sleep.We appreciated being able to make tea and coffee in our room.The view of the stadium was inspiring-an interesting architectural building-and we could enjoy the sound of ducks on the river Taff!. Altogether a very happy experience.Thank you.Martin and Lucie

Nice and centrally located hotel. Room was nice and spacious with Tea and Coffee making facilities, TV and a bathroom with shower. Everything one needs for a stay. Centre of town only 10 Minutes away on foot. Easy and fast check-in and out!

Comfortable stay, easy check-in, very kind and helpful front desk personnel and within 5-minute walk to Cardiff Castle, restaurants (Pasture and The Welsh House) and 8-minute walk to Bute Park! Best location, everything within walking distance.

Welcoming and professional helpful staff. I've stayed at a couple of premiere inns and this one was by far the best. Not only was the layout really good and facilities not just rescrited to the rooms but overall design spacious.

Brilliant little place to stay, good for just coming and going when you need without the hassle of keys. Parking was ok outside on the road. Very clean and tidy, just no hot water in the sink tap which was weird as you cant wash unless having a shower but overall great place to stay for a cheap short stay.

Wisestay is close to the city centre, it's a 5 minute walk. The staff are friendly and helpful and the room was clean and tidy. Great for a weekend break.

Patricia • Solo Trip

Équipe de jeunes très efficace, serviable et très sympathique (là quotidiennement jusque vers 17h) qui tient ce petit hôtel en bord de fleuve, entre la gare centrale de train et de la gare routière de Sophia garden. (10 min à pieds maximum chaque). Embarcadère de l’Aquabus proche également. Propreté impeccable et locaux neufs pour ce que j’ai constaté. Très petite chambre, mais très bien équipée (prises usb, 2 fenêtres doubles vitrages, salle de douche, robinet du lavabo à économie en énergie, tv, thé/café/chocolat et bouilloire).

Perfect location for concert and city center. Room small but perfect for somewhere to sleep. Perfectly clean and great to have en suite.
