March 2025One of two 5 star hotels in Cardiff, this place will make you feel right at home with their warm service and luxury feel. We've stayed so often for special occasions we're at the point of recognizing the staff. One of the special touches that keeps us coming back is we'd often have birthday cards/ Anniversary cards left in the room and on occasion a free drink to celebrate, so make sure to let them know if it's an occasion. We always stay on the fourth floor and have a beautiful view overlooking the Cardiff Barrage towards Penarth. The room is spacious and airy, with a king size bed, feather pillows and balcony. Plus everything else you'd expect from a hotel such as mini fridge, tea & coffee facilities and the toilet even comes with a bidet! The spa facilities are great too, with a lift for hotels guests that take you straight to the spa, there's a pool, jacuzzi & lounge pool, as well as a small sauna and gym facilities. These are all free to use for hotel guests so I'd suggest making the time to relax if you're stay here. The only customer feedback I'd like to give is, I think the bath/showers could do with a deeper clean to stop the buildup of limescale. House keepers work hard to meet deadlines so it would be worth looking into if they need more time and better equipment so they can go over the harder to clean areas.

December 2024Booked a night here the same day for a night away and some time in the spa and could not be happier. The hotel is modern and the rooms are clean and tidy and the beds are fantastic. Has a view looking over the Senedd and waterfront area. The spa is big and was quite quiet when we visited. It's relaxing and has a great variety. There are child-free hours in the spa if you're interested in visiting then. The restaurant in the hotel has absolutely lovely food and the staff are notably polite and welcoming. Will be returning here again soon and hopefully again in the future. Definitely recommend 👍 and cannot argue with such a good price.

December 2024I took my wife away for a few days as she is expecting our 1st child and the St Davids hotel was perfect for this. Staff were (mostly) attentive and accommodating as you would expect from a 5 star hotel. The facilities were amazing, room was fully stocked and comfortable. Breakfast was superb. The gym and spa facilities were good. The location is central and the views are amazing I requested (in person) at the front desk for the complementary turn down service for our room as we were leaving for dinner. The male staff member completely ignored me, and when asked why, was given no explanation. I was told The spa massage facilities were not available until the new year.

February 2025We stayed here for our valentine weekend and our whole stay was wonderful. The rooms are lovely a spacious with everything you need. 25h room service, food at break was great, everything was tasty and a wide selection. The view from the restaurant was also great. All the staff we interacted with were all very friendly and couldn't do more for you. The spa well what can I say it was absolutely perfect, the jets, jacuzzi, pool and sauna was just what we needed. We didn't want to leave. My only downside was there was no steam room but that just a personal preference and not a negative for this hotel. you very much voco you will definitely be seeing us again.

March 2025The hotel has a great location with beautiful waterfront views, and the overall ambiance is modern and stylish. The rooms are comfortable and well-equipped, making for a pleasant stay. However, I noticed a lack of staff training, which impacted the service quality. Some interactions felt unprofessional or disorganized, and certain requests took longer than expected to be fulfilled. While the facilities, including the spa and dining areas, are impressive, the inconsistency in service prevented the experience from being truly top-tier. With better staff training, this hotel could match its stunning setting with equally high-quality service.
