The Marriott is showing its age so while the furniture and fittings are showing their age they were originally quality fittings. There’s a restaurant on site and a slew of good places to wine and dine on the doorstep and excellent shopping too. The major tourist attraction is the nearby castle and Bute Park, and the dockside is a 30-odd minute walk away by the river. I like the fridge and safe plus an adequate gym but once again found hotel pillows hard and unfortable.

The nearby markets include vintage records as well as food and a range of dining

Loud and poor bathroom

We had a nice room with 2 double beds with great views of the castle and stadium. Unfortunately, the bathroom had no extractor fan and the water didnt drain whilst in the shower/bath. This meant the bathroom was like a steam room once someone had a shower. The mirrors took an age to clear. By the time 2 or 3 people had a shower it was not worth going in there to look in the mirror etc. Possibly rhe worst part was the noise. The music from bars opposite was clearly heard until 4am. Sadly one of my friends cudnt sleep through it and had an awful nights sleep.

Needs a visit from maintenance

Hotel was smart, in a great location and the food in Browns restaurant was amazing. However, the condition of the bathroom wasn’t great. The extractor fan wasn’t working, the plug for the sink was stuck closed. The lever for switching from tap to shower on didn’t work at all. But since the bed was so uncomfortable there was no chance of a lie-in so we had plenty of time for a bath instead, or at least we would have if the plug in the bath actually closed properly so the water didn’t drain out in a few minutes!!

Unfortunately the room ac was not working and was on floor M which is the first floor so with window open very noise. Also looks on to nothing - room with pipes industrial ac units etc. not want I would expect from a Marriott. I asked on check in for a higher floor and they assured me this was an upgrade. Not very truthful.

Stayed overnight here. Nice room with everything in it and clean. Bed was good size. . Great view from the 10th floor. Plenty of elevators. We got a helpful young lady and reception. Beds even have a USB port beside it. Our GPS took us to the opposite side of the street and couldn’t find the way around town and all the one way streets to get there. I got partner to walk to hotel and asked reception for the parking address which worked out. Parking was easy. Breakfast ok but coffee could be a tough hotter.
