Staying at a hostel in Cardiff is a less expensive option compared to other types of accommodations in the city. Most of the hostels can be found in the general vicinity of Cardiff University’s main campus in the downtown area, east of the River Taff. This area is an ideal location because it is close to main transportation links, a plethora of bars, restaurants, and cafes, and many places of interest, like the Museum of Cardiff.
For those traveling alone who prefer accommodations without dormitories, check out Weaver’s House B&B, which is a hostel in Cardiff located on Windsor Road, close to the Windsor Road Dingle. A good choice for couples, this moderately priced option has only standard rooms with twin beds and is close to the Dingle Road Rail Station, which is convenient if you’re arriving there via public transportation. A few romantic places of interest are Mermaid Quay, Cardiff Castle, and Cardiff Bay.
YHA Cardiff Central is worthy of consideration if you’re looking for a hostel in Cardiff that is good for groups. It has several standard and deluxe dormitory-style rooms with 4 or 5 beds each, and all rooms have in-suite bathrooms. There is even a meeting room on the property, which is an attractive feature for those traveling for business or with friends. YHA Cardiff Central is close to the University of South Wales and the Cardiff Motorpoint Arena, as well as Cardiff Castle a short walk away.
Females traveling alone can enjoy the women-only accommodations at Mrs. Potts Hostel, but there are mixed dormitories there also, if preferred. This historic, renovated building on St. Mary Street in central Cardiff is very close to major transportation services (Cardiff Central Station, Cardiff Queen Street Station, and the Westgate Street bus route) and less than 1 mi from several premium attractions, such as Cardiff Metropolitan Cathedral, Cardiff Castle, and Principality (Millennium) Stadium.
If you want to ensure you grab a bargain, try to book at least 51 days before your stay to get the best price for a Cardiff hostel.
