Comfort Meets Convenience Just Outside Cardiff

Modern and welcoming, the Holiday Inn Cardiff - North M4 sits just outside the hustle of Cardiff city centre in the peaceful Tongwynlais area. With easy access from the M4 and a short drive into town, it's a top pick for travelers looking for a quieter stay without being far from the action.

Why Concert-goers love it

Whether you're heading to a stadium show or a local gig, this hotel makes a great base. It's just a short drive or taxi ride into central Cardiff, where most major venues are located. After a long night of music, the quieter location means you can actually get some rest. Check-in starts from 3:00 PM, with check-out at 11:00 AM, giving you time for a slow morning after a late night. Plus, 24-hour room service is a lifesaver when you roll in hungry post-show.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends heading to Cardiff for a gig
• Solo travelers catching a dream concert
• Couples looking to turn a concert night into a weekend escape
• Fans who want a little peace and quiet after the encore
• Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t mind being a few minutes outside the centre

Food and Drink Options

You won’t go hungry here. The hotel offers 24/7 room service, perfect for midnight munchies. There's an on-site restaurant serving breakfast (ideal for those late sleepers), lunch, and dinner. If you're venturing out, there are a few local pubs and eateries within a short walk or drive.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t offer live music or a party scene, it’s close enough to central Cardiff for you to enjoy the city’s buzzing nightlife. A quick taxi or Uber gets you to bars, clubs, and late-night venues. Then return to the hotel for a restful night away from the noise.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms, and the relaxing vibe after a busy day in Cardiff. Many mention the easy access to the motorway and the bonus of a free car park. The spa and pool are also popular highlights for those wanting to unwind.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests feel the hotel could benefit from a small update in room decor, and being a little outside the city centre means you’ll likely need a car or taxi after a late show. But if you're not looking to be in the thick of it, that quiet can be a major plus.

The Bottom Line

If you’re after a comfortable, quiet, and affordable base with easy access to Cardiff’s music venues, Holiday Inn Cardiff - North M4 hits the right note.
