Great place

Escape38998744094 4/22/2024 TripAdvisor review

The stay was brilliant and the hotel was very family friendly. Our 2 year old loved the swimming pool. The customs shed was a great place for food. We were looked after by a server called Lit for our stay. He was very helpful and kept bringing strawberries for our daughter. He definitely went the extra mile to make our experience the best it could be. We would definitely recommend.

Amazing hotel with great facilities

R6329LKclairek 4/21/2024 TripAdvisor review

Just got back from a two night stay, and wanted to say what a lovely time we had the facilities are amazing the pool and sauna was a favourite with us and all very clean. The staff were all so friendly especially the bar staff made us feel at home my daughter loved the little extras for children the activity pack and the bedtime story book, and the games area was a nice touch. A big shout out to Lit Barbara who made our mornings everytime we came down for breakfast he would greet us with a massive smile we never needed for anything breakfast was a definite 10/10 we can’t wait to come and stay again.

Great service and facilities

GJ91FCB Solo travel - 4/21/2024 TripAdvisor review

It is a shame I only stayed one night, because it was an amazing experience. The room with a balcony was great, definitely worth the upgrade, fantastic view towards Cardiff Bay. I also want to praise the overall guest service, the breakfast and the leisure centre. The highlight was the cheerful and friendly service from Sabina during breakfast. Will definitely return!
