We stayed at Capital Apartments Century Wharf for two nights in June 2011 to see the Take That Progress Live 2011 tour. I thoroughly recommend it! It is great value for money and wonderful to have your own private apartment and space. I would like to say thank you to Leanne and Lynda at the Capital Apartments office who were very helpful and friendly and made the experience so wonderful. The check-in procedure was simple - you check in at the Capital Apartments office and receive a map of where the apartment is (Century Wharf is only round the corner from the Capital Apartments office) and details of your allocated parking space. We were even give a hardback Cardiff guidebook for free - (worth £ 15!)
The Century Wharf complex is gated and secure and very clean and quiet. Walking into the apartment was fantastic - it was clean, modern, bright and spacious! We even had a balcony which connected through from the living room to the main bedroom. We had two bathrooms (one ensuite), two bedrooms, a spacious living room, a kitchen and two utility cupboards. The kitchen was very well stocked and had a lot of storage space. The bed was very comfortable and the area is very quiet, so you should have a good night's sleep!
Century Wharf is a few steps away from the Millennium Centre and Cardiff Bay, which is well worth a visit for the restaurants and shops and there's a handy Tesco Express there which is only a few roads away from the complex and is useful for any of your self-catering supplies. In the other direction, it is about a 10-15 minute walk to the main street in Cardiff and the Millennium Stadium. It really is a great location!
One word of warning - about the parking. You are given an allocated parking bay upon check-in. If there is another car in that bay, do not park in an alternative bay! Instead, park somewhere in the complex which is not blocking another car and call the Capital Apartments office. They will then give you a code to display in your car. If you don't do this, you are liable to receive a £ 75 parking ticket from the concierge! We found another car in our allocated bay and called the office and Lynda very helpfully sorted out the parking code. Lynda even drove round later on that evening to check that we had parked somewhere that the concierge would deem suitable! We found that the car in our space had a parking ticket the next day.
All in all, we had fantastic service from Capital Apartments and a great stay. Recommended *****
