Future Inns Cardiff Bay

Future Inns Cardiff Bay

10/10 Excellent
"Plenty of parking spaces. Foyer is very nice and welcoming. Room is spacious. It has air con which is not as efficient as I’d hoped but the room wasn’t hot, although we were there during a heat wave. Hotel is clean. Easy check in/out. Remember to put your number plate onto tablet when you check in."
