Wow, what a stay!

The staff at this hotel were amazing! It was our son’s birthday and the guest services manager Rachel went above and beyond by filling the room with surprises for him! He was absolutely delighted and so was his sister, as there were plenty of treats to share, plus a bottle of Prosecco for us! The room itself was spacious for the 4 of us, and very clean and well equipped. We had an issue with aircon but this was reported and someone was sent to try and sort it. Unfortunately they couldn’t before we left, but we were given a discount on our bill. The pool facilities were fab, very clean and lots of options like a hot tub, sauna and steam room! Plus, there were plenty of fresh towels. The breakfast buffet was fresh, varied and all allergens identified which was great as our daughter can’t have milk. Every staff member we encountered was so friendly and smiley which makes all the difference! We would definitely stay again and recommend it to anyone.

The first day.. The front management was very professional but My room had water on the carpet when I first checked In. House keeping brought 2 towels and put on the spots, but made no effort to dry them. A 2nd time they were called and house keeping brought 2 towels and made no attempt to dry . A 3rd time management came to dry the spots . The service in the restaurant was very slow, as they apparently forgot to attend to me after my order .. The office staff Deborah and Reuinsi were very kind and professional. But it should not have taken 3 attempts and managers to get water up.

We stayed in room 335 and when you flush the toilet water flies out of the toilet bowl each time. My partner went to Oasis and the bouncer on the door on Friday night pushed him on the chest twice.

The room was well decorated and clean, the hotel is well located but we were a little disappointed. We had a very long wait for check in, and thought it might have been a courtesy to apologise. There was massive up selling of room service, themed for the event that we were there for, but the hotel was clearly overwhelmed- they had disabled the app when we tried to order and no-one answered the phone. Clearly it had been running previously as there were trays piling up in the corridors as we walked to our room. No water in room, the fridge wasn’t working and neither were the reading lights. Expected better, won’t stay again.

Although we only stayed one night here, we were delighted with the service and experience at the Cardiff Hilton. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable (thanks for the dinner recommendation! ), and our room was perfect—quiet, with wonderful views of Cardiff Castle. Would stay again!

I booked this hotel as on hotels.com it said it had a deep soak bathtub. This is what sold this room to me. When we got to the hotel, there was a shower in the room. When I asked about the bath I was told that there is only one room in the hotel with a bath and thats on first come first served. I feel like I misold.
