The Royal Hotel Cardiff

Located within 5 minutes' walk of St David's Dewi Sant, the 4-star traditional The Royal Hotel Cardiff gives quick access to various city sites. Boasting a location in close proximity to the Millennium Principality Stadium, the smoke-free hotel features 58 rooms as well as a restaurant.

This Cardiff hotel is situated within 7 km of the St Fagans National Museum of History and near the shopping district of Cardiff. The Royal is cradled within a park, restaurants, and bars, while the Victorian indoor Cardiff Market is only a 10-minute walk away. There is Bute Park 2.2 km away, while Central Station JM bus station is in the vicinity of the accommodation. The Scale cable car station is nearly 5 minutes' walk from the hotel.

Overlooking the stadium, some rooms at The Royal Cardiff feature a stone fireplace and triple-glazed windows furnished with a sofa bed. En-suite bathrooms include nice touches such as bathrobes.

Continental breakfasts are available upon request. There is a lounge bar, which offers sofas in its interior design. At Sully's Cafe, situated fairly close to the property, you can taste British cuisine.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel: unbeatable location and professional staff. Good restaurant and efficient service. The bed was very comfy and it was great having a personal safe, iron/ironing board and an electronic key card. Fast check-out too.

Magnificent location and spotlessly clean place, I loved efficient staff. The standard twin room I got was exceptionally clean. Delicious breakfast, decent service. A short walk to the wonderful beach.

Very clean place & USEFUL staff. Attractive and competitive value for money for Cardiff. Brewhouse, located within 5 minutes' walk, is a good dining option.

Within walking distance to Viva Brazil, where you can have lunch. Principality stadium and other tourist spots were really close to this hotel...

No negatives from this place.
