Efficient check in, managed by a friendly member of staff. Booked room only, but were offered discounted breakfast at only £15 for 2 people. Seemed silly not to!
Our room was on 15th floor. Good size. A bit sparse in terms of furniture - but it had everything you needed - I.e. sufficient cupboard, wardrobe space. Plenty of electric sockets - but a mirror at the desk area would have been beneficial. Well stocked tea/coffee tray. Added bonus of a fridge. Decent basic toiletries provided in the bathroom.
Breakfast was very good considering the price. A great variety of foods - continental and cooked, and served to a good standard. Restaurant area was spacious and kept clean.
I was actually surprised that a one night rate was considerably cheaper than the more commonly known chains.
Given its location to the city, the bay and entertainment venues - I would certainly stay here again

Nice clean hotel close to city centre, double room was quite big and the bed was super king!
Tea and coffee making facilities, plenty of storage and loads of electric sockets.
Visited during recent heatwave and air conditioning kept the room nice and cool.
Breakfast was help yourself with a lot of choice from full English to continental.
Car park was good, the only downside was the cost at £25 per 24 hrs.
Would recommend.

Excellent overnight stay here. Air Con was spot on (we stayed during the heat wave), everything clean, also no street noise (in the middle of the city centre so could have been awful). Shower excellent too. Staff friendly. We didn’t eat here so can’t review that. Would recommend. We got a great rate also.

The Majestic (used to be the Raddison) is 5 mins from Cardiff Central station and 5 mins from the shopping centre so great location. Lobby/reception modern and clean, staff efficient and polite. Check in took a long time but there was a big event in Cardiff and hotel was full.

The room was clean, basic but completely adequate for a one night stay. Comfortable bed, tea and coffee, clean bathroom with plenty of hot water.

Overall not luxury but very good value for the price.

Very clean and spacious room, every you need for a nights stay, fridge in room which was handy as it was a warm day
Ideal location for gigs/shows/shopping
We paid £25 for 24 hours parking on site which is cheaper than any car parks in the area and very secure so weight off mind
We didn’t have breakfast but it smelt good 👍
Great price and staff we very nice and helpful
All in all we give this hotel a 10/10, perfect for a night away in Cardiff 💪

Stayed here for Take That show, short walk to town for pre drinks and then onto Stadium. Less than 1km walk back after show with the masses. Room clean, quiet and had everything required.
Lovely full Welsh breakfast in morning and chatted to some of TT cast members also staying at Majestic Hotel! Only small gripe, could not book hotel parking in advance?!? So had to book elsewhere 15 min walk away.
Would be great if we could sort that out???

Rooms were clean and bathroom was very modern and clean. The entrance to the hotel and reception area was very misleading because when you got to your room it was very outdated and not really what you’d expect when you walked in . The room could have done with a window as it smelt like damp washing due to lack of ventilation. Aircon and heating both worked fine but really could do with natural air into the room . Overall an okay hotel but could realistically do with a renovation and modernisation in all areas

Nice hotel and nice staff. Clean and modern. Spacious room with all the usual ammenities. Quite noisy though in the rooms, plus the fire alarm went off at midnight walking everyone up and no explanation from the hotel at the time or in the morning either. Great location. Only negative was the car park, no free parking and it was £25 for 24 hours but most places in Cardiff are that prive.

Less than 10 min walk to the Cardiff Central Railway Stsation a just crossing the street and you’re in the City Center shopping Center , loads of coffee shops , restaurants and less than 10min walk to the Castle.
Being in Center , easy access to pick up points for day trips j. Clean , relatively new building, comfortable bed and pillows , huge room and the price not bad for such location

Only stayed there one night so can’t really comment on the amenities as I didn’t use them. I was staying on the 21st floor which in itself wasn’t an issue but when you get back from a night out and large party of people are waiting for the lifts of which there are 2 it took a good 10 minutes or so to get to my room. I put this down to bad timing. The following morning I called the lift. It came up to the 20th floor then went back down again so I effectively had to wait for the other lift and endure all the subsequent stops on its journey to the ground floor. My recommendation if looking to book here is request a room on the lower levels. Other than that the room and bed were comfortable and the staff were friendly.

Location is excellent, everything else is poor. Staff inattentive, shortages and lack of choice for breakfast. Rooms dated and basic. There was a fire alarm in the middle of the night and seemed to have a lack of direction from staff on evacuating. Key card was deactivated on two different occasions after returning to the room meaning a trip back to reception to fix it. Disappointing hotel!

The location was excellent and the price made it a very reasonable option. The room was clean, and although I did have to change rooms due to a broken air conditioning unit, this was handled without disrupting my sleep or overall stay too much.

Parking was straightforward once I realised you need to drive right up to the shutters to access the intercom for entry.

That said, the hotel does feel a little tired in places. The carpets in the rooms could do with updating, and unfortunately I had forgotten slippers so really noticed the flooring underfoot.

One frustration was the lack of bottled water available either in the room or to purchase at the bar. When I asked at reception/bar, I was offered a glass of tap water to take upstairs, which wasn’t particularly practical, and I ended up having to leave the hotel to walk to a nearby shop.

During my stay the hotel didn’t appear particularly busy, although staff mentioned they had been rushed off their feet. Breakfast was adequate overall, but the scrambled eggs were honestly some of the worst I’ve ever tried.

Overall, this hotel served its purpose as a budget-friendly stay in a great location for the city centre. I would stay again if cost was the deciding factor, but would probably pay a little more for somewhere with a fresher feel and better amenities.

I checked into this hotel and I was informed they were going through a changing phase and everything was a mess.

Subsequently I paid for an executive room but was given a standard room, only after complaining I was given the room I pre paid for.

The staff on the reception and bar staff were all very uninterested to show any kind of service.

The breakfast was cold and boring.

The hotel and rooms need some updating and DIY.

A very sub standard hotel, I will not book again with them.
