The hotel has a convenient location right near the train station, making travel easy, and the atmosphere in the bar is quite lively. Unfortunately, the rooms could use some upgrades, as they felt worn and not as clean as expected. Some amenities were lacking, but the overall experience was decent for its price point.

The hotel offers a unique charm with its historic character and spacious common areas, making it a noteworthy option for budget travelers. However, some cleanliness issues, particularly in the bathrooms, detracted from the overall experience, along with noise from the bar on certain evenings. Those looking for a lively atmosphere with live music may find it appealing, yet it's not without its maintenance needs.

I recently stayed at The Grand Hotel, and while I was drawn in by the lively atmosphere and weekend music, my experience was quite mixed. The rooms were basic and needed updates, and although I enjoyed the vibrant bar scene, it wasn't always lively and felt empty at times. I appreciated the breakfast they offered, but some aspects could use improvement, especially regarding cleanliness. It's a budget-friendly option if you're looking to enjoy the local nightlife, but don't expect anything resembling luxury.

Overall, the hotel has a lively atmosphere and provides an affordable experience for those looking to stay near Cardiff. While the location is convenient, the rooms could use significant upgrades and maintenance. Some of the facilities are quite dated and don’t quite match up to what you might expect. Still, the prices make it an option worth considering if you're on a budget.

The hotel provides a welcoming experience with excellent staff and is conveniently located right across from the train station. The rooms are spacious and clean, but some decor is a bit average, and the breakfast could use more variety to impress. It’s a great spot for a budget-friendly stay, especially for those attending events like rugby games.
