Staybridge Suites Cardiff by IHG

Staybridge Suites Cardiff by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Needed a very last minute dog friendly hotel. I rang up at 5pm on Monday night to confirm they are dog friendly and the guy who answered the phone was super helpful. Booked in with them. The room was brilliant as it’s a suite, quite spacious for a family of 3 and a dog. I would use this hotel again for sure as it has its own kitchen as well which is brilliant. We didn’t know this so next time we would buy and cook our own food Found out we had free breakfast as well. Very basic but they had a nice selection. Only criticism would be the room was quite dusty in parts and there was no Wi-Fi. Whilst the WiFi doesn’t bother me, I had a phone call I had to do Tuesday morning on teams which meant I couldn’t do that. That’s my issue however, not the hotel. But there was no communication saying there was an issue with it"
