Alternatively take a look below for a taste of what our city can offer and what some of our visitors had to say about their stay.
 

Stunning City

Cardiff is a stunning waterfront city with wonderful buildings and parkland. Visitors who come to Cardiff for the first time are always pleasantly surprised by among others the many attractions. Cardiff Bay has recently been transformed into an exciting leisure complex. The bay has been flooded with the introduction of the barrage, which has created a vast fresh water lake where you can take a boat tour and discover some of its history or maybe try something a little more adventurous such as a speedboat trip. It is the home of the first purpose built 5* Sir Rocco Forte hotel, The St David's Hotel and Spa. You can return to your youth at Techniquest science museum, stop for a coffee in the Norwegian Church or explore the many restaurants and bars, serving food from all corners of the world.

 

Relaxing

After a long busy day why not spend some time unwinding, there's plenty to see and do. If you or your delegates are lucky enough to have spare time in the evening or maybe during the day, whatever your needs you can be sure they will be catered for in the various attractions and entertainment, including theatres, casinos, museums, restaurants, bars and clubs and off course shopping. Cardiff was recently voted one of the top six shopping destinations in the UK and it has a wide variety of shops situated in modern malls and Victorian arcades. Most of this activity is centred around Queen St, the pedestrianised heart of the shopping mecca. Cardiff is compact and easy to navigate, dubbed the "15 minute" city, so wherever you are you're never far from your next port of call.
