Cardiff, the youthful capital of Wales is vibrant, but yet
offers a setting for calm retreat away from the hustle and bustle of a hectic
lifestyle. Cardiff is the cosmopolitan city, well served by its own
International Airport, National Railway network and close to the M4 Motorway.
The recently developed Cardiff Bay area, in which the hotel is located, is only
five minutes from the city centre. Adjacent to the Hotel is Mermaid Quay, which
offers a wide range of restaurants, bars and entertainment, providing a vibrant
extension to the attractions within the city centre. The new Welsh Parliament
and the Welsh National Opera can also be found there.
The National Museum & Gallery, located in the city centre, has the largest
collection of Impressionist paintings outside Paris; the Millennium Stadium has
established itself as a popular venue for major sports events and concerts is
only five minutes from the Hotel by car; the quaint shopping arcades provide a
glimpse of Cardiff's past and complement the modern shopping facilities now
available. The surrounding countryside and the Brecon Beacons provide a
picturesque perimeter to the city; it is worth making time for a tour along the
picturesque coastline and around the numerous castles that form the heritage of
Wales.
Of all the parts of Britain, Wales has maintained its
historical independence and ancient Celtic mother tongue, which is communicated
through nationalism of its people and in the elements of earth, water and air in
its landscape.
