Holiday Inn Express Newport by IHG
The bedroom smelt strongly of stale tobacco, which is unpleasant and dissapointing.

The Angel Hotel
A grand but tired hotel but adequate for price point. Mattresses too soft and uncomfortable and rooms overheated. Decent breakfast for price. An excellent location though….easy walking distance to the station and Cardiff amenities.

Future Inns Cardiff Bay
Reception and restaurant staff were amazing, very friendly and welcoming and they were very helpful. Only issue was that there was meant to be an ice dispenser in the laundry room but doesn’t look like there was one. Everything else was perfect
