I recently stayed at the Hilton Cardiff, and while there were some positives like the friendly service and a comfortable atmosphere, I was disappointed with the noise level and the cleanliness of my room. The dining experience was decent, but there’s definitely room for improvement in terms of quality. Overall, it’s a nice hotel with great amenities, but I expected more for the price paid.

I had a very mixed experience at the Hilton Cardiff. On one hand, the staff were incredibly attentive and made an effort during our visit. However, the state of the facilities left much to be desired, especially the cleanliness of the spa area and the quality of the food during lunch. Overall, it's a place that could use some serious improvements to match its name and pricing.

I had a mixed experience at the Hilton Cardiff. The location is fantastic, right near Cardiff Castle, offering easy access to the city center. However, the quality of the room I stayed in was not acceptable for the price, particularly due to poor cleanliness and outdated amenities. On a brighter note, the breakfast was exceptional and worth mentioning, while the leisure facilities provided a nice way to unwind.
