Four Points Flex by Sheraton Cardiff

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location and very helpful staff. On our first one-night stay the property was disrupted by the filming of a movie and this created some hardships on everybody - unexpected and my review would be much worse if that would have been our only experience. On our second one night-stay a few days later the experience was completely different - movie people were gone - and we really liked the hotel."

"Beautiful hotel, reception is so welcoming and immediately feels like you've stepped out of Cardiff. The room was incredible complete with double bed, bath, shower, sofas and everything needed for a wonderful stay. Unfortunately was a work trip so didn't get much time to try out the facilities or breakfast but I'm sure they would have been equally as amazing"
