The Citrus Hotel Cardiff by Compass Hospitality Bute Terrace, Cardiff CF10 2FE

"I stayed two nights in this hotel. Rooms are bigger than I imagined and spacious for two persons. The heating system was excellent and I had a comfortable sleep throughout my stay. I would stay again here."

"Ridiculously close to the CIA which for the price, I couldn't even fathom. Great gig stop if you're travelling in for a band or event at the city. Breakfast was well made, but get there early before they run out. Rooms were great, we got the deluxe. However, some finishing on the rooms needed fixing: the windows were peeling at the sides, skirting board was missing a panel, and doors were chipped. Overall, a decent gig stop hotel. Well worth the money!"

"7-10 minute walk from Cardiff station. Very friendly staff. Was given a room which I not expected, the staff immediately changed and gave a nice room which had a great view of the city (as attached). Great value for money."

"We stayed one night in an upgraded room, which cost £192. The hotel is a bit rough around the edges. Our room had a grubby bin, cracked coating on the drawer unit, and there were patches of wall that had been hastily repaired. The bed was two single mattresses on a double base, not the most comfortable, and the duvet was too small. The shower was lovely and had no issues with hot water. Location is perfect for the international arena, literally a few metres away, and I suspect the reason the room was pricey. the staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. Parking is limited to 10 spaces or less on a first come, first serve basis, so be prepared to park in a nearby NCP. Average price for Cardiff but definitely needs some attention to detail and some work on the standard of finish to compete with other hotels nearby."

"The location for the shops is excellent, the staff at the reception made you feel welcome. We have stayed here 3 x now, but I'm not sure of a fourth time. Disliked · The breakfast went cold really quickly, only warm when self-serving. The room was a little shabby tbh, there was yellow water when the bath taps were used first and the bath was dirty, so it needed to be rinsed before use. The bathroom didn't look like it had been throughly cleaned in a while. The light above the bed didn't work, which we did report but opted to be rectified when we left. The reception explained to us about the "please clean the room tab on the door, we did hang it out but only the towels got changed no replenishment of condiments ie tea, coffee etc."
