Had a lovely stay here. Room was quite spacious. Had toweling robe, slippers, huge double shower. Bed was comfy and cleanliness standards high. You do get some street noise, esp when bin lorries arrive but it is right bang in centre. Has a small roof terrace and honesty bar which was a nice touch. Breakfast was good, service good. Couldn't fault the place

We had a short but lovely stay last weekend. Staff went out of their way to assist with an early check in to meet our needs. Really friendly and attentive. Lovely rooms, the patio and lounge are also a really unique and relaxed space. The breakfast was absolutely fab! I've heard really good things about the restaurant for other meals too however sadly we didn't have time during our short stay due to attending a wedding. I accidentally left a necklace at the hotel and the staff called me within the hour and said they'd happily post it to me, now thankfully received! Thank you so much, we loved our stay and have already recommended you to friends and family. We will be back!

Really lovely place. Everything is so nice decorated and furnished. People are friendly and the breakfast is delicious. The location is great, just in the city center. Only the view from our wonderful room was to a car park, but we did not look out of the window anyway. In the early mornings you can hear the machine cleaning the road. But therefore you are just in the center.

Parador 44 is a gem, we stayed for one night and my only complaint is that we didn’t stay for longer. The welcome from the staff when we arrived right through to handing the keys back was everything we could have wanted. …

This hotel is a treat, starting with friendly staff at check in. It has a Spanish-style design and a Spanish restaurant on the main level (Asador 44). My room was a generous size and the bathroom is beautiful. …

Booked this hotel for a long weekend on the strength on the TA reviews. Not disappointed- it’s a great hotel, central to the town centre. Rooms are lovely - a good Spanish vibe going on. …

WARNING- Parador 44 will spoil you for all other local hotels.Chic, warmly welcoming, impeccably turned out: this is hospitality as it's meant to be. I rarely bother eating in a hotel restaurant, yet downstairs one of the best restaurants in South Wales awaits for excellent breakfasts (have that hash brown and all others will pale in comparison...) and a dinner few can rival locally. This is a beautiful experience.
