Short sports trip

I attended Cardiff as my young daughter was competing in the British Cross Country Challenge. It was a one night trip. We walked from the Town Centre to the hotel and the area seemed to be in the student vicinity and on the dowdy end of things. The hotel itself was pleasant although there was a temporary reception area set up to receive guests. Check in was carried out quickly and pleasantly by the staff. The room was very nice and a good size but the twin beds that were asked for weren't provided. As it was for one night I didn't raise the issue with staff. The bathroom contained a bath which was nice and was very clean. The shower sealant had ,however seen better days and I would be surprised if it wasn't leaking behind the tray. We used the pool and sauna and steam room which were okay but the changing room floors could have done with a clean and the pool water was a bit on the cold side. The reception staff could have been a bit friendlier and helpful as the locker was a bit tricky to operate, particularly for my daughter . I noticed some guests taking a very short dip in the cool pool and then retiring to the sauna. My daughter and I are made of sterner stuff and swam for a while. We had to order room service because of the really torrential rain and the food was reasonable and pretty tasty. It was delivered pretty quickly too. We had a good sleep , heard little noise from other guests and checked out the following morning. A satisfactory trip with only some minor complaints but a good value deal overall for the combined flight and hotel package.

Weekend break

Really nice large room, with tea and coffee provided. Staff in reception were really helpful and gave us a map of the city to help us get around. The only fault we had was the fact we had to pay to park in the hotel car park, but otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and would go back again.

Excellent hotel, but no business centre

Great modern hotel with free wifi, but no business centre if you need to get online and don't have a laptop or smart phone with you...but great otherwise.

Anniversary Break

The Hotel is in a good location for the shops and points of interest. . The room had good views across the city and was comfortable. The room was a little jaded and needs some attention but overall was fine. The facilities in the Hotel are good . The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the Hotel.

Easter break

Firstly wow,view from 12th floor room was great.room was large with desk and separate seating area and the bathroom was adequate and clean.Curtains and carpets needs attention though.Leisure facilities were great and we enjoyed the pool,jacuzzi and steam room a number of times. I would of preferred private cubicles to get changed in but all communal unless you used the toilets. All staff that we met were friendly and polite and we would return again and certainly use this group of hotels. We enjoyed are time in Cardiff very much.

Shopping Break

We stayed at the Mercure for a one night stay for a shopping break, the location is perfect for this as it is only a very short walk to the St David's Center and the main shopping areas. We booked an executive room which was on the 14th floor, it was very spacious with a lovely big bed and a panoramic view of the city. We used the Spa area for the pool and sauna, the receptionist at the desk was very friendly and helpful. The changing rooms were spotlessly clean. We didn't have breakfast at the hotel as it seemed a little pricey and there were many nice coffee shops within a short walk. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.
