Four Points Flex by Sheraton Cardiff

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Cardiff

10/10 Excellent
"This property was convenient, right next to Cardiff Central, but quiet (could not hear the trains from the room). The area is perfectly situated in the shopping district of Arcades, between the castle and the harbour front. Only concern was them requiring my passport number on check in. I’ve never been asked for this at any hotel in the past. "
