Macdonald Holland House Cardiff

When you walk into the Macdonalds Holland House Hotel in Cardiff you can't help but be in impressed. From the outside the hotel looks very grand and the lobby is equally as impressive. You go up to the room and that too looks impressive. Huge bathrooms, spacious bedrooms overlooking the city and lots of little extra's like cd players that you don't usually get in other hotels. So, why one star you may ask? The problem with this hotel is that on the surface everything looks great, but it's really not. -The Rooms- One of the things that I liked best about the room was that it was so big and the views were amazing. Every time I've stayed there I've ...  Read the complete review

In September 2005 my wife and I went to see the Stereophonics play in Cardiff and, wanting to be able to take some time to look around Cardiff (recommended to all), we decided to book a hotel for a Friday and Saturday night. After a quick Internet search we settled on MacDonald Holland House, a four star hotel close to Cardiff City Centre. We were quoted £98 for the Friday and £126 for the Saturday for a Superior Room with breakfast included. The Superior room is in fact the starting room, if you want a little more luxury you can choose from a Club Room, a Kings Suite or even the Presidential Suite. There are 160 rooms in total. The Hotel was ...  Read the complete review

I have stayed at the Macdonald Holland house about three times over the past few years. Recently though it has changed to the Mercure Holland House but apart from the name there really isn't any difference. The hotel is situated on Newport Rd in Cardiff city centre and as it is located towards the end of this road it's a great location for the city. If you were staying here you would be situated near the top end of Queen Street where Sainsbury's is located. The Hotel is a large 16-story building with a blue tint to the windows; it has 165 en suite rooms, leisure club spa meeting rooms and underground parking. As well as having even larger suites above the ...  Read the complete review

We don't often stay in hotels in this country but treated ourselves to a posh weekend in Cardiff about a year ago. We stayed in MacDonald Holland House, which is a four star hotel. It is quite close to Cardiff City Centre but probably a good 5 minute walk from the edge of the main shopping area. We were very lucky to be upgraded to a suite on one of the top floors (not due to any problems or complaints, just certain circumstances which I can't go into it. And no, we aren't celebrities or anything!) We had bought a package where breakfast and an evening meal were included. The hotel is kept spotlessly clean. The reception area, the restaurant, ...  Read the complete review

The macdonald holland house is now called the mecure, but the actual hotel is exactly the same. My partner booked the holland house as a surprise a few years ago, im not a fan of hotels generally, however when we arrived outside, i was impressed. Its a tall building, very futurist looking, and lots of lights and very pretty. At christmas time, they put very large christmas trees outside, and it looks beautiful. Inside is even better, its a massive lobby, with marble floors, the toilets on the lobby are amazing. The ladies, has music playing, a massive sofa in the middle, its pink and is clean and spotless. Thd hotel staff are very ...  Read the complete review
