Turn right out of our front door and you’ll find yourself looking towards the Cardiff Bay Wetlands Reserve. Created on the site of a former salt marsh the floating timber structures provide sheltered breeding areas for all kinds of birds. Wander along the gravel walkway to the viewing area – don’t forget your binoculars.

Look out for: Grey Herons and Kingfishers are a common sight feeding on the fish that gather in the reserve’s abundant waters.

A five-minute walk from the hotel you’ll find the bustling terraces and boardwalks of Mermaid Quay. Home to bars and restaurants, here you can enjoy lazy lunchtimes, or the vibrant evening atmosphere that kicks-in as the sun goes down.
