The Coal Exchange Hotel

About this hotel

The Coal Exchange trades a shorter walk to the stadium for a setting no other hotel on this list can match, a genuine nineteenth-century trading hall two minutes from Mount Stuart Square where Cardiff's coal wealth once changed hands. The hot tub and upscale dining room suit a weekend built around the stay as much as the match, and the Wales Millennium Centre sits six minutes away for anyone extending the trip into Cardiff Bay's arts scene. The walk back towards the stadium runs longer than the Westgate Street cluster, closer to twenty minutes, but fans who want the building itself to be part of the weekend tend to accept that trade. Côte Cardiff Bay sits five minutes away for a pre-match meal away from the busiest streets.
