A great little hotel which is placed in an enviable position right in the heart of Cardiff Bay. Good links to the City centre either by bus or water taxi both within a couple of minutes of the hotels front door. The best option for parking is in the Pier Head multi storey car park behind the Millennium Centre which... More

Located down by Cardiff Bay with lots of restaurants/bars. Access to the city either by walking (a good 20 mins), the number 6 bus nearby, cost £1.70 or a local ferry &3.00. The hotel is comfortable and the staff are friendly. We stayed in room 3, which was pleasant enough, two points to make, firstly the windows are not double... More

I enjoyed an excellent 2 day stay at the quirky & different Jolyons Boutique Hotel. Nothing was too much trouble - staff were hospitable, friendly & engaging. Manager Ben was the epitome of helpfulness & catered for our every need. Highly recommended!

Jolyons has good rooms, lively bar, and fine breakfast. But the best thing about it is the location on Cardiff Bay, in walking distance of a terrific range of bars and restaurants overlooking the bay.

Stayed in the summer when visiting friends and the hotel had just opened. Room was cute but folding door with gaps wasn't great when you are away with a new partner. We had the discounted starting rate of £70 which was quite competitive for Cardiff but I see it has since increased. Negatives? Parking was far far away and the... More

The best location for the Mllenium Centre and restaurants in the bay area. Our bedroom was great (4 poster included) and a large bathroom well appointed. Breakfast downstairs in the morning a real traditional feast and well cooked. I would certanly stay again but remember it is a boutique hotel and therefore don't expect the amenities associated with the usual... More

LoveLy room beautiful designer bath very comfortable and good welcome.Breakfast better than dinner but all of a good standard. A welcome change for a business traveller .doesn't look much from the outside but a lovely stay I will use again when in the area

A little gem in the heart of Cardiff Bay. Never judge a book by it's cover as behind the big door we were greeted by a lovely warm clean reception area, and friendly staff. Room (loved the Edwardian furniture) and bathroom spotless (coffee terrible). Stayed overnight as went to show in Millenium Centre, had a few drinks in the Bar... More

I agree with the 'Good, but not £100 good' review, but will go a little further on why we rate it Poor. We shared a similar experience on arrival - after three rings of the doorbell, the chef appeared, friendly enough, said no-one front of house was around until after 3 (again, despite booking.com say checkin was 2.30pm). He managed... More
