Newest Review: ... things a lot safer especially with the amount of people falling about. We decided to go into the bar nearest the hotel which was Walkabout, it was free entry and we got chatting to the bouncers, they offered us free entry the next night if we gave them one of our tiaras we all had in our hair. (thankfully we had extra ones up in the room) so we promised to take them down the next night. Once in the pub we noticed it was quite quiet for a Friday night, we didn't know if it was just that pub or if all would be the same. There was a live band playing and it really got us into the spirits of going out for the night. When we went in there w... more

Premium Review Cardiff in General: Loved My Hen Weekend In Cardiff (1565 words)

On Friday 16th October me and 4 friends flew to Cardiff from Inverness for my Hen weekend. My review will be based purely on what I did down there which was mainly the nightlife and eating out. (I was too hungover to go shopping!) Friday evening we arrived in Cardiff at 7pm at the Central train station which took us from Bristol. I noticed that it was really busy and just as the name on the train station it was very central and over the weekend once I got used to the place I would realise just how close it was to everything. On our way to the hotel from the train station we stopped off to get some things for the hotel, I noticed there was several ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Cardiff or Caerdydd which ever name you prefer! (665 words)

Now I am biased having lived in Cardiff but it is one of my favourite cities in the world. If you've never been to Cardiff but are thinking of going this review will put down some of the places I think it's important to see and some information about the city I think may be useful. This is subjective and I hope it's of some use. Cardiff is a pleasant city, with good transport links to the rest of the UK. It is a safe city in comparison to other UK cities but it does have its dodgy areas. You don't want to end up wandering in Ely or Grangetown really but unless you get hopelessly lost you are unlikely to. Saying that it is safe to drive and get lost in Cardiff, ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Cardiff in General: Welcome to Cardiff (200 words)

I've lived in Cardiff for 8 years now and I'm very happy here. I moved here to go to University, moved away when I had finished and then came back. I've been here ever since. I have lived all over the city in various parts and obviously some are better than others but on the whole, I think Cardiff is a great place to live. It's a safe city (as cities go) and has a friendly atmosphere. It's multicultural with many English settlers (like me) as well as many people from other nationalities. I really like this about it. You also then have the Welsh Speakers which adds another multicultural dimension. The Welsh are very proud of their heritage which i ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Lovely Capital (173 words)

I really like cardiff as a city. it's fun, vibrant, has a great friendly atmosphere to it and is really modern, as you'd expect a capital city to be. Cardiff has a good selection of shops, restaurants, bars, cafes and a really buzzing nightlife, perfect for all the students there. I've always found it to be a really friendly city, with great places to explore like cardiff bay with the welsh assembly buildings and thea local markets. We went to a great sushi place called Zushi, which offers every plate for £1 after 9pm - who can resist bargains like that? The local market is brilliant as well, with lots of fresh food and produce as well as ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Cardiff in General: Brilliant city to live in and visit (590 words)

I am from Cardiff and having been around the U.K I find it one of the nicest and attractive cities without being too biased but there is no place like home. Cardiff has many attractions such as one of the best stadiums in the world millenium stadium, cardiff castle, cardiff university and the millenium centre. With Cardiff being such a small town it is very easy to navigate your way around. Cardiffs main train station is Cardiff central which is located right next to Cardiffs main bus station where you find both local buses and the national express coaches which travel around the U.K. There are 8 platforms at Cardiff station and it is the 10th busiest station ...  Read the complete review
