Best Hotels near Cardiff Queen Street, Castle

Lauren was amazing - found us a room that we could check into around 7am when our flight was cancelled a couple of hours earlier. Lauren even printed our new boarding passes for us. Lovely staff member. Room was small but fine, no extra pillows were available though. Bathroom shower was lovely - very powerful :) Air con said 18 degrees but I’m not sure it was quite that cool. Location is excellent and great value for money. Again, kudos to Lauren! Remember - no restaurant on site but PLENTY of options on the doorstep!

It was a nice stay. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. The parking space was full but he helped us find a parking space. Would definitely stay with them again.

Reception: The ladies at reception are very nice and welcoming, especially Sabina. Room / facilities: Room number 311 is on the 3rd floor and is clean with a water view. Oddly, they don’t make up a room daily, unless requested. This service has no additional cost. The 2 single beds are jointed to make a king bed, there is a small clothes hanging area, little bathroom, chair and desk, with tea and coffee facilities. There is no fridge in the room, but reception will keep a small amount of items in the hotel fridge. Self control air conditioning with a window that opens about 5 cm. Parking: Is shared between the Holiday Inn Express and Staybridge hotels, and can fit about 35 cars. Parking is £10 per night, and registration must be provided. Wifi: Complementary and good speed. No validation or password required. Breakfast: This was part of our room package. The traditional English buffet breakfast is from 7.00am to 11.00am and consists of cereals, yogurt, breads (to toast) jams and spreads, fresh fruits, pastries, eggs, bacon, baked beans, sausages, juices, tea and coffee. It was noticed that even at 9:00 am refills of milk, and food was slow to come. Conclusion: Great location, nice staff, comfortable bed. Letdowns: No fridge in the room, possibility of not getting car parking upon your return to the hotel. Location / Nearby: Cardiff Waterfront is a 10 minute walk, Cardiff City is a 15 min walk. Both walks are on flat ground and easy to do. Beware: No matter where you drive to, payment for parking is required. Most parking meters accept coin and card “tap” facilities. Generally after 6.00pm or 8.00pm parking is free, in designated locations. Getting to hotel: Best use GPS

Great value for money. Location was good. A lot of stuff around. ****** next door.

It looks like an old hotel. The double room booked in the UK is large, the bathroom is large, and the facilities are complete and clean. The location is very good, the castle is just across the street, the shopping center is behind the hotel and the transportation is convenient. It is also very convenient to ask people to walk from the train station for about seven or eight minutes. The only downside is that it is facing the street, it is very noisy to close the window, the window is boring, the air conditioner is a bit noisy in May, the bathroom can't open the window, there is no exhaust fan, it is a bit stuffy, how to drain moisture? Overall it is still satisfactory.

Disastrous first booking with trip.com! Travelled with my Daughter and her friend, arrived only to be told there was only a king size bed, room too small for the 3 of us. On booking, the search engine was defaulted to 2 adults, so this was amended accordingly. Thankfully there was a spare room.to accommodate at an additional cost of £30, oh and parking was £10! Not the budget stay I originally thought it to be. Please be careful. Accommodation top class, clean, fresh, beautiful with attention to detail.

Anniversary and birthday. Beautiful hotel looking over Cardiff Bay /Penarth. We had a room overlooking the bay on the 7th floor. Stunning views. Used the Spa and really enjoyed the hydrotherapy funnels. Try and avoid child swim times if you want a little peace. Breakfast was vast offering everything you could possibly need. Catering for vegans too. Lovely stay

After having a number of afternoon tea’s in this hotel I’m saddened to say that todays experience was not like it has been in the past. The food was still good but the experience and service was a huge let down compared to before. The Hendricks afternoon tea’s have stopped which is sad as many of us would of had these. I ordered a second cup of coffee and ended up waiting 25 minutes for this. Some of my friends mentioned their coffee’s were cold. One asked for a second pot of tea, she was asked if she wanted a fresh pot or the one she’d been drinking topped up, she requested a fresh pot but received the same pot of tea back having just been topped up with hot water. The tea was weak and stewed. The Welsh cakes were dry and stale plastered in sugar! The atmosphere was lovely however it’s sad that we have all agreed we will not go back again (party of 13)! Plus there was a 10% service charge on top of the price for our afternoon tea. We gave a little more but thinking back on this I wish I had said no. Sorry to have to write this review.

After a few visits to Cardiff staying in various iffy hotels in the city centre we returned to The Future Inn last night - and have vowed to stay nowhere else from now on!! Firstly it's so easy from J33 M4 and the parking is spacious and FREE - Yes FREE!! Easy check in from an on-line flexible booking, reasonable rate. Friendly staff, large rooms, right temperature, very clean and good facilities (Welsh bottled water, kettle/hot drinks, nice bickies). Very good breakfast - using Welsh Ingredients. Also another plus point - Very easy to get to the city centre (Queen Street), using the shuttle train 4mins, from Cardiff Bay - Queen Street. The station is literally ＜5mins from The Future Inn & runs until midnight - about every 10mins or so. Cheap tickets (book ahead/use railcard) = £4 return for 2 people. Really enjoyed our stay & will be booking another stay later tonight. Well done The Future Inn!!
