Time and rate: I stayed for 1 night from 26th - 27th May in an executive double, because it was the only room left. The rate was double of their usual rate, so the rate was quite high, even for a 5 star hotel, but it was the weekend, and we booked only a few days prior. If you have... More

St David's is famed in Cardiff as (a) upmarket, (b) stunningly located and (c) expensive. As a Cardiff resident, I'd never been until my best friend and I decided to stay for some pampering, celebrating our birthday. It's an icon building with its 'sails' roof, and we were thrilled with our room, which has a panoramic view of the barrage... More

This hotel has a superb setting, wonderful views, convenient for the Millennium Centre. Apart from this, very average describes it well. Rooms OK, breakfast OK (but with friendly, helpful staff). The service is quite dreadful. We specified down pillows when we booked on line as we have sleep problems. The first time we stayed at this hotel some months ago,... More

I stayed here for 2 nights, on business. Good views of the bay, hotel and rooms perfectly clean (did not use the spa). However......I have never, ever, been in an avowedly 5 star hotel with such an appalling breakfast and overall poor and slow service. The basic offering in the morning was paltry, unapppealing, and slow to arrive. In fairness... More

I stayed here for one night as I was helping out a friend for an event she was hosting in the hotel and was taken aback when saw it had five stars. Having had the privilege of staying at some luxurious hotels around the world; St David's Hotel and Spa is definitely not in the same league. I would give... More

My first ever stay here, but hopefully not last! Quite simply the best hotel I have ever stayed in. The location of this hotel is superb in every way, the views fabulous,and the local amenities (shopping, dining, walking, sightseeing) all within yards. I was lucky enough to be upgraded to a junior suite which overlooked Cardiff bay, and had enormous... More

Everybody commented on the quality of the food which was amazing the staff were great with a special mention to Des the toastmaster who organised and entertained whilst also... More
