Due to our positive experience last stay, once again my Mother and myself booked into SACO Cardiff and we weren't disappointed. Although the apartment we had originally requested wasn't available, the one we were given was even better. It had a lovely view out the back to Sofia Gardens and the main bedroom was incredibly roomy with a massive bathroom.... More

The apartment exceeded our expectations from the location to the facilities but failed miserably in delivering the most important aspect of staying away from home which is a good night's sleep. The mattress was uncomfortable and you could feel the springs poking through which led to little sleep and awful backache which did not help when attending a two day... More

Very handy for Cardiff, on a lovely road in. Nice to have our own space to relax in after being out and about all day. Couple of doors down from the cricketers pub.....fab More

I stayed here over Christmas. it's a serviced apartment, so there's no Reception; you let yourself in through codes to the front door and a keysafe. I was a bit nervous about being an anonymous apartment at a family time, but I was very pleasantly surprised. It was very homey, warm and very well-equipped. Loads of hot water and really... More

I had the privilege of staying at SACO Cardiff in September this year and could honestly recommend it to anyone. My Mother and I booked into a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment, and while we thought it would be nice from the photos we had seen on the website, we were blown away by just how lovely it was when...

We encountered two issues - a maintenance problem (no hot water) that took a long time to resolve (actually not resolved, but we did manage to shower in another unit on the 2nd day) and an expensive 'deposit' scheme that will burn you if you're a foreign traveller (they call asking whether they can take a deposit to secure the...

Stayed as a family of 4 in 2 bedroom apartment No.4. Upon entering the unit, the kids were excited with the large layout, soft carpet and excellent facilities. The apartment was very clean. The lounge is very spacious, as is the master bedroom. The second bedroom is slightly smaller, but more than adequate for 2 children. The main bathroom was... More

We hired a one and a two bed apartment at 76 Cathedral Road for the weekend and were not disappointed. Excellent building and location, spacious apartments, decent bed linen and good kitchen facilities. Not one single complaint and I’m one of the most fastidious individuals you’ll meet! I’ll defiantly look to Saco for accommodation for both business and personal use... More

The SACO apartments in Cardiff are fantastic, and I can't recommend them highly enough. I had a great three day stay there for a business trip, and would definitely go back for business or leisure. The apartments on Cathedral road are very well sized, well equipped and nicely done out. It's a 10-15 minute stroll into town and right near... More

I've stayed in SACO Cardiff a couple of times now when I've been travelling for business. Couldn't recommend it highly enough. Apartments are spotless and in a nice neighbourhood. I felt very secure there even though I was staying alone. It's about a 20 min walk along the river from the Central train station and there are a couple of... More
