A repeat stay at the royal hotel, would recommend to people looking for a central location and a quality room. Friendly and helpful staff on the lead up and through out our stay. Only downside is that it is quite dark in the rooms.

started our visit on a Sunday and yet lots open and lots to do plenty of places to eat and drink from pubs to coffee houses to restaurants had a bit of a bad night the first night as the room given was on the 4th floor and at the front very noisy and not just from outside. the room... More

Perfect location in the centre of Cardiff, great value for money (although the bar is pricey), Very well done for the double glazed windows, which block out so much sound from the party people down in the high street. Very lovely room, and excellent bath room. Would stay again!

Windows had secondary glazing we found out why when we left them open for fresh air, as we were woken... More

Booked this hotel direct for £56 B&B Special Rate. Centrally located few minutes walk from shops etc. Been to Cardiff many times and love the city. However, 1st time at The Royal and very disappointed. Lacked atmosphere. But as the saying goes you get what you pay for! We were allocated a room on the 6th floor. The room was... More

We booked directly with the hotel to stay Sunday 26th May 2013. A double room with breakfast was £56 in total for the 2 of us - far cheaper than the Travellodge & the Premier Inn. Check in was speedy & friendly We were on the 3rd floor. Great room, perfect for the night. Only one little problem......the windows don't... More
