The location was excellent, only a short walk from the station , attractions, shops and bars & restaurants. Previous reviews had said that it was ideal for the solo traveller so that's why I chose it and I was glad that I did. The staff were helpful and friendly. The room was clean and there wasn't any mould in the shower which I so often find in even the best hotels ! The breakfast is only served from 8-10 am but I had booked on a day trip which was picking me up at 8 am so they helpfully packed me up a breakfast so I could eat it it in my room which was fine with me.

Breakfast could be served a little earlier

This hotel is an absolute gem. Our room was romantic, beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. Everything in the room was of the highest quality. As the building is old, there are small windows with only a street view, but the location is perfect, on a quiet street and only steps away from the castle and the main shopping streets. There was a tastefully furnished and quiet roof terrace (plus a comfortable inside space if the weather was bad). The breakfasts were excellent with lots of homemade goodies, including Welsh cakes and granola. The Spanish restaurant on the ground floor was a superb place for lunch, as well as a lovely spot to enjoy the delicious breakfasts. The bathroom was large, modern and charming. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Without a doubt, it's a wonderful hotel and we would most certainly stay here again.

The only thing I could fault this hotel on, was the lack of closet space and drawers in the room. There were only a few hangers on the wall. If that could be improved, I would have given it a 10 rating.

I really enjoyed my 1 night stay here. The attention to detail at this hotel was stunning. The rooms are tastefully designed and spotlessly clean, with high quality bedding and towels. It was a very comfortable nights sleep. The guest area was lovely and had everything you could wish for. I personally didn’t mind having to pop out the room for coffee as the fresh coffee they provided was really good. I also massively enjoyed the continental breakfast; much more interesting and better quality than your normal hotel breakfast. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming which was nice and made the experience very relaxing.

Excellent hotel, very quiet considering the Central location. Room was clean & spacious with a powerful double shower. Complimentary toiletries smelt great and were regularly replenished. Excellent outside Courtyard exclusive to guests. Breakfast although Continental (Cooked Breakfast available at a reasonable price) was good with Fresh fruit. I was able to drop off luggage before check in time and staff were helpful with carrying our luggage.

No Tea & Coffee making facilities in our room, although complimentary tea & coffee was available in the guest lounge.

Everything was spotlessly clean, the comfiest bed with beautiful decoration. Loved the lounge area, a little piece of heaven where you can relax and have a drink. Breakfast in the morning was delish, a small selection of quality produce included in the room and option to purchase an extra cooked breakfast if desired. My husband did and loved the cooked welsh, he said it was one of the best he has had, with unique produce.

Only thing I didn't like was not having a kettle or coffee machine in the room, to get dressed and make our way to the lounge to get a brew in the morning was a bit of a faff. For the room rate some homemade biscuits would have been a nice touch.

Parador 44 is sited on the doorstep of the Principality Stadium and within minutes of the heart of Cardiff's shopping centre. As such, it was a lovely surprise to find this oasis of tranquility and calm. Beautifully decorated, impeccably clean, with all the facilities we required for our one night stay. The lounge and roof terrace (with honesty bar) was just lovely - and our room even better! We were in Flor - right on the street - but never heard a sound from outside. A massive, comfortable bed, seating area and luxurious bathroom... it was just a joy! Breakfast is taken in Asador 44 - the restaurant downstairs - and was lovely. We opted for the hot menu (extra cost) and it's well worth the money, but the continental option was also well thought through and delicious (the granola!) Finally, the staff were all so friendly and helpful. Really would highly recommend.

My only slight nitpick would be the extra cost for a hot breakfast - but the quality of the food is exceptional.

Excellent location for the lovely restaurants and bars that we enjoy visiting. One of the best being Asador 44 which is next door and belongs to the hotel. Staff were fabulous. Continental breakfast is just what I like and there are more substantial cooked breakfast options available. It’s a very small boutique hotel with around 8 rooms I believe. The communal lounge has a very substantial honestly bar. I found the accommodation to be exceptionally clean.

I didn’t enjoy the trek down to the lounge to make my early morning coffee. I would have preferred to make it in my room. However I do understand why it’s planned like this.

The location of this property is exactly for what we hoped. We were able to walk from the train station. It was very convenient to the center of town, the castle, shopping, pubs and multicultural restaurants, an easy walk for all we needed. Our rate included breakfast which was termed "continental." It was more than adequate and we enjoyed it. The sunroom, patio and self serve bar and limited snack availability (for a fee) were a bonus.

Those with mobility issues may have difficulty negotiating steps.

Gorgeous little hotel in the centre of town. Super comfy bed, cute self service honesty bar with terrace if the weather is nice, fabulous breakfast (I'm going to dream about that cheese...) and lovely staff. Thank you for a great stay. We will be back!

Only issue could be the lack of lift but not a problem for us. And public car park over the road is height restricted but we knew that so parked elsewhere and walked in.

Fantastic hotel, the suite room was lovely and very comfortable. The bathroom was huge, with a double shower and the robes and towels were great quality. The breakfast for an additional £5 was fantastic value and the food was very good. Breakfast is served downstairs in Asador 44 and the produce used was incredible. The honesty bar and guest communal room was a really nice touch. The drinks options were amazing.

We didn't mind at all but the hotel is on a busy street. Street facing rooms could be a little bit loud for some but it didn't cause us any discomfort.
