The room was very clean and well kept. It featured a nice view. I found the breakfast delicious with many options available each morning. The hotel's central location made it easy to access the nearby Utilia arena and St David's shopping centre, it was so convenient.
The hotel seemed a bit expensive, though the stay was good.

A great stay

Rachel provided an upgrade to a king executive suite. I found treats in the room. This suite had castle views. The lounge access included soft drinks, tea, coffee, and snacks all day. Alcohol and canapés service occurred in the evening.
i found the pool changing rooms to be awful. they were dirty with plasters and tissues on the floor. no towels were available, so i had to use room towels.
