Park Plaza Cardiff

Park Plaza Cardiff

10/10 Excellent
"Great hotel. Our room was very big with a huge bed. The bathroom was a good size with both bath and shower. Everything was very clean. Great central location, 5-10 minute walk to city centre shopping arcades, restaurants and bars. Conveniently there is a multi-storey car park opposite (formerly NCP), where you can get discounted parking with a code from hotel reception. Spa facilities available; pool, and spa treatments, showers and changing rooms. Huge dining room with a delicious evening menu, and breakfast. The bar is great if you don’t fancy a late night out in town, cocktail menu, good draught selection and friendly staff. Could possibly do with some snacks/nibbles, such as crisps, nuts etc. It was our second visit and we’ll definitely return. Highly recommend."
