I recently had to travel to Cardiff and was looking for a good place to stay, so that I could pay attention to my business.

I stayed one night at the Avala Hotel and found staff very welcoming and could not have done more to help me find my way around Cardiff. The hotel was clean and pleasant. I did not try breakfast because of time constraints but it certainly smelled very good! Hopefully when I next visit all rooms will be en suite as... more

Booked accommodation for 11 persons of which 9 of them are younger 16 years and younger. In the weekend of June 1 we encountered clean rooms, good breakfast and excellent service with a smile from the dedicated manager, Lyndon. Some of the boys did not like the traditional english breakfast. No problem for Lyndon, the next morning everybody got their... more
