The Angel Hotel, Castle Street, CF10
Easy to find, spaces available, but suited to smaller cars as spaces very tight

Parking on Verona House, CF10
A seamless process - I received all the details ahead of time, including the barrier code. The space was easy to find, felt like a safe, secure location, and was conveniently situated about an 8 minute steady walk from my hotel which was in the city centre. I will look to use the service again when I visit Cardiff and would also highly recommend it to others. It takes the stress out of driving through the city centre and hunting for affordable parking spaces.

Parking on Mercure Holland House, CF24
Secure underground parking. Can’t fault it. Good location, short walk to city centre.
Bekki -
Parking on Adamscroft Place, CF10
A great parking space ideal for the arena which is where we went, a short walk and you avoided traffic and queues, the owner looked out for us and guided us to where we wanted to go. .I would highly recommend
Karen -
Parking on Brigantine Place, Off Schooner Way, CF10
Great central parking spot. Only a 5 minute walk from motorpoint arena, we went down the side of the Ibis hotel onto Herbert street, directly opposite ibis is a cut through where you will see a coop, over the bridge via Pellett street and we were there. When you pull into Brigantine Place you do have to look closely for Waterfront 2000 LTD as there are lots of parking spaces, however the photo does help :) would definitely park here again.
