I needed a hotel but as it was a six nations weekend this was one of the few with vacancies. Owner was so lovely and entertaining

Barry Island Beachfront Apartment - Stunning Bay Views and Private Parking is located in Barry, just 8.1 miles from Cardiff Bay and 9.4 miles from Motorpoint Arena Cardiff.
Interesting to see the new and the old. Massive amount of regeneration going on, but still parts that won't have changed in my life time. It's worth a walk round the whole of the "island" not just the promenade. Barry town centre is a bit run down but efforts being made to improve things.

Stayed in Barry as the hotel was A LOT cheaper than Cardiff...
Stayed in Barry as the hotel was A LOT cheaper than Cardiff for the bank holiday/Bruce Springsteen gig. 2 mins away from train station, pubs and chip shop. Ideal for what we needed the weekend.
Barry itself is OK and nearby is Barry Island fair and the beach. Not too far from the airport and half hr to cardiff on the train for £6.

Barry is my husbands home town. It is always good to visit.
Barry is my husbands home town. It is always good to visit. We usually stay in the Vale but this time we thought we would go for a cheaper option on the coast.
We were shocked at how disinterested our hosts were in our plight of arriving late at night due to 2 aircraft malfunctions. We had to stay elsewhere for the first night because they would not allow us entry to the flat despite them taking payment in full from our credit card.
Their main concern was whether we would dispose of the rubbish. There was no broom to sweep the floor. The plastic floor was beginning to peel and there were way too many pots of plastic cactus left lying about the place. Why?
There was a frying pan full of smelly fat left in the oven. the bed was way too small for two people and full of dips from previous occupants. For the first time in 42 years of being together we slept separately, My partner taking one of the single beds. The kitchen taps looked like someone had taken out their frustrations with a hammer.
On the plus side parking was good as was the location.

I stayed in Barry for 3 nights.
I stayed in Barry for 3 nights. I was visiting Wales for the Six Nations at Principality Stadium in Cardiff. There are plenty of hotels in Cardiff, but the prices were all excessive because of the Rugby event. Barry is nearby, a short, 4 quid train ride away from Cardiff Central which is pretty much the center of action, to include a short walk to the stadium.
Barry itself was a nice, quiet detour away from the Capitol city. I enjoyed a few restaurants and bars while staying in this small town.
I did not rent a car. Walked everywhere I needed within Barry.

Having grown up around the area I always love coming back...
Having grown up around the area I always love coming back and seeing the changes that have happened and I'm glad to say , all for the better.
There are some lovely coastal walks and the goodsheds are amazing , it's also nice that you can walk around the waterfront .
The hotel ground floor was visually beautiful and stylish; the hotel and our room were pristine clean; we loved the room (31) opposite the lovely church and looking over Barry to the sea; the entire staff were friendly and accommodating; the hotel has a fabulous atmosphere; it is very welcoming; walking distance down to the front and a short drive down to Nell's Point car park which we needed to be at on Sunday morning ready for the 10K Barry Island race which was our reason for the stay.
A really nice property situated in an ideal location for access all around Barry Island and the surrounding areas. Only a couple of minutes away from the sea front and the train station. Amazing amount of space in this well designed and well kept house. Great views from most rooms in the house but the first floor back bedroom has to be my favourite.
The breakfast room is accessible at all hours with all the supplies you need when you arrive for a snack or if leaving early morning. That was great. A quick taxi ride to Cardiff Airport for early morning flights. The room was clean and nicely decorated. The owner and her family who live on the premises were very welcoming when we arrived.
Our stay here was very short as we had to catch a flight at 3am and transport to the airport. Since we were missing breakfast the hotel put together a bag full of food for us to take along. The rooms and restaurant were very good and we were glad we did not have to leave the hotel to find a place to eat.
Great location for exploring Barry Island (short Drive into Barry) and other local Towns. Spacious apartment, bigger than expected. Near local supermarkets and places to eat, we drove to them within 5 /10 mins. Lovely and peaceful stay.
Check in was quick and problem free. The staff are excellent and the room was huge, clean, warm and cozy. Free parking is a bonus. The hotel is located in an excellent spot for getting into Barry within 10 minutes and cardiff within 20.
great layout for an apartment, plenty of room for 2 people and 1 dog, little outdoor space, good for visiting Cardiff Bay and Barry Island, my daughter and I really enjoyed staying here!
