Premier Inn Cardiff East hotel (Cardiff, United Kingdom)

Guests tend to describe the rooms at this hotel as a little on the small side but find them comfortable nonetheless. The new look certainly seems to be a big hit. The rooms are clean and the in-room conveniences put everything you need close at hand.

The reasonable room rates are not the only thing that makes this hotel a good choice for budget-conscious guests - freebies such as Wi-Fi and parking also make the Premier Inn Cardiff East an appealing option. The majority of guests also thought that breakfast was reasonably priced.

This hotel is ideally placed near several transport links and is just a short drive from the city centre. There’s a park and ride nearby if you fancy leaving the car behind. Despite the nearby motorways, many guests remark that the hotel is surprisingly quiet.

Several guests comment that although the hotel rooms and bathrooms were clean, there was occasionally an off-putting smell in the bathrooms. Most described this as the smell of drains - some thought it was faint while others described it as strong.

Guests occasionally mention that the lack of air-conditioning can be a problem in warmer weather. Opening the windows will cool the room down somewhat but will also allow you to hear passing traffic.

A number of guests were placed in connecting rooms and were a little disappointed to find they could hear neighbouring guests. It’s usually not a huge problem to be moved although you may be out of luck if the hotel is fully booked.
