Great Hotel with fantastic staff

The hotel was easy to find, easy to park and the staff both in reception, restaurant for dinner and breakfast were first class ( Possibly the best I've interacted within in UK ).. they upgraded room to lakeside which was lovely but the only criticism was the double bed i booked ended up being 2 single beds pushed together which resulted in me only be able to sleep on one half as the gap in-between just swallowed you up

The hotel and staff are lovely, the room was lovely only thing was it was way too hot and rather noisey in the room. Didn’t have a very good sleep at all unfortunately. There was a fan in the room and we had the windows open which let in more noise than fresh air!! But it was still way too hot in the room but saying that it’s a lovely hotel.

A beautiful hotel, loved watching the swans on the lake. Arrived mid afternoon and were afraid that we wouldn't be able to get lunch - but the restaurant was open and provided a very nice meal. The rooms were beautifully maintained, the shower was powerful and every staff member we encountered was welcoming and helpful. I would stay there again if I come back to Cardiff.
