Best Luxury Hotels in South Wales

"Unfortunately from arrival it didn’t start well. Prior to arrival we were given a discounted parking code that had expired and was told on arrival that they no longer give codes out despite giving an expired code via email before arrival. Room is dated and needs an upgrade. Bed was very soft and uncomfortable. Cleanliness wasn’t great but we ignored it as we weren’t in the room long. Breakfast was ok, but overall poor and wouldn’t stay again."

"Room clean but carpet stained and dusty in corners, no soap container so soap was sliding all over the bathroom top so had to keep it on a towel to soak up the water"

"Check in was easy and the reception staff said let them know if I needed anything. I wanted green teabags and asked for them over 2 days about 4 times. Eventually, Georgia, the reception supervisor, put them in the room herself, so I had them for my last evening…… I’d asked for a walk-in shower but the water was lukewarm, and, although they said it had been fixed, it hadn’t, so two disappointing showers in 2 days! The room was clean but the floor was a bit gritty (I was barefoot as I don’t wear shoes indoors) but otherwise a corporate room, plenty of space and adequate lighting and quite nice biscuits. I can’t understand why quality hotels only offer instant coffee in the rooms though! After checkout, while I was waiting to leave for my train, Georgia very kindly found me a nice place to sit. Would I stay there again? Not sure, but it is a few mins walk from the National Museum of Wales, which is why I chose it."

"I have stayed at a few of these hotels for work as I travel around quite regularly. There seems to be a reoccurring theme that the bathrooms have a really horrible drain smell. I would have mentioned this to staff but I dropped my bags off to the room went for dinner come back and it was already around 8:30- 9:00. The second theme is the service in the bar is inconsistent - my drink came quickly and my main came around 20 mins after this .. I had ordered pizza. Also bare in mind I’m a solo diner - my dessert took an additional 50 mins. This isn’t the first time I have experienced this in a village hotel - I did eventually ask the staff when my dessert was coming and it came quite swiftly. The menu also seems quite pricey for the quality of food. Bedroom window was broken and wouldn’t shut properly same again didn’t realise until later in the evening - again didn’t mention this to staff due to the time of evening. Lastly on another slight negative note the rooms are not sound proof in the slightest -especially the noise to the corridor. Positives - the hotels feels safe for a solo travelers - the rooms are visually clean - bed and pillows are comfy - easy check in and check out - modern interior - large size room I have never paid over £100 to stay at one of the village hotels - generally comfortable stay and maybe the negatives are to be expected for the price "

"Clean room and very convenient location for a super pleasant walk! Parking isn't free!"

"The staff was excellent, especially Shaun and Zach! They quickly took care of our every need and assisted us with a room upgrade! We were very pleased and would stay here again."

"We have had some lovely stays at this hotel, however, not so great on this occasion. The room was comfortable and the staff helpful. We had a problem with the air conditioning not working and the concierge did try to get it fixed but was unsuccessful so provided us with a floor standing fan which did resolve the problem. Unfortunately though sleep was extremely difficult as there was a bar/nightclub playing very loud music until around 3am, which was out of the hotels control but did definitely negatively affect our stay. However, we would consider staying again if we could have a room on the other side of the hotel."
