Hotel Indigo Cardiff by IHG

Hotel Indigo Cardiff by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"The music themed room was very cool with all the drawers, lights and artwork made out of musical instruments and speakers. The room itself was a nice size, quiet and very clean with a very comfortable bed. The check-in staff was helpful and friendly with good suggestions on where to go and what to see. The daily breakfast was fanatatstic, healthy, and had many vegan and vegetarian options. But again, the staff were all very pleasant and friendly. Overall, Hotel Indigo was a great stay and I highly recommend it. Well done!"
