Hotel itself is great. But breakfast buffet could use more variety. If you are only staying 2-3 days it's fine...but I wouldn't opt in for it at €20pp, unless you want the exact same items every day: fried or scrambled eggs, bacon and pork sausage, hash browns and tomatoes. No omelet station, no pancakes, etc. No oatmeal-just cold cereals. Toast & pastries, meat/cheese and fruit w/yogurt. Decent amount of items, but absolutely no variation from day to day.
It is my second time here and the perfect choice when traveling to Cardiff. Had a wonderful stay at the Hilton Cardiff! The location is simply excellent, right in the heart of the city with easy access to everything. As expected from the Hilton chain, the room was comfortable, clean, and up to high standards. A big highlight of the stay was the wellness area — both the pool and the gym are fantastic, well-maintained, and great for relaxing or keeping up with your workout routine. The service was friendly and professional throughout. Highly recommend!
We stayed at the Hilton Cardiff for our anniversary and it was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. Beautiful room with thoughtful touches of bubbles and cakes made it feel really special straight away. The VIP lounge was outstanding, and every member of staff, from reception to bar to dinner and breakfast, delivered genuinely excellent service. Perfect location too, just moments from Cardiff Castle. A truly memorable stay. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Stayed here for one night for work in May 2026 Pros: Room was generally clean with good facilities and a comfortable bed, staff were consistently polite and pleasant, location is excellent for exploring Cardiff, bar was also pleasant Cons: While the room was clean it could probably benefit from a refresh, I noticed a cigarette burn hole in the curtain (pictured) and some (presumably) coffee stains on a wall for example. Breakfast had a good selection but the quality was a bit more mixed, overall the food was fine but not amazing.
Hilton Cardiff is conveniently located next to the castle and close to the Cardiff city center, making it an ideal base for exploring the town. Our room, 535, was clean and comfortable, although the layout felt a bit unconventional. The bathroom was spacious, featuring a column in the middle of the shower area, but unfortunately, there were no hooks or towel racks attached to it. This made it difficult to hang a towel after showering, as I had to walk across the room to reach it. To improve the experience, I suggest adding hooks to the column in room 535.
