The Big Sleep Hotel

In Cardiff’s historic city centre, this designer budget hotel is opposite the Motorpoint Arena. Condé Nast Traveller voted it 1 of the 25 coolest hotels in the world.

Each room at The Big Sleep Hotel is designed in a striking retro style, and features panoramic views of the city. Guests can make use of a flat-screen TV, tea and coffee facilities, and Wi-Fi.

There is a 24-hour reception desk, and a chic Lobby Bar that serves light snacks and refreshments. A continental breakfast is available in the morning, and a range of restaurants can be reached within 10 minutes’ walk.

The Big Sleep is superbly located for the city’s major venues, including the Millennium Stadium and City Hall. St David’s shopping arcade is just across the road from the building.
