Travelodge Cardiff Central
A minute from the Wyndham Arcade tram stop
About this hotel
Travelodge Cardiff Central sits right on the market loop, a minute from the Wyndham Arcade tram stop and six minutes from Cardiff Market itself, keeping the walk down towards the stadium approach short despite the plain, down-to-earth rooms waiting behind the door. Viva Brazil Cardiff sits a minute away for a pre-match meal without needing to venture off the immediate street. Complimentary Wi-Fi keeps things simple, and the location inside the walkable loop means this budget stay does not sacrifice much on distance to the ground compared with the pricier hotels clustered nearby. It suits fans who care more about the short walk than the finish on the fittings or the size of the room itself.
- Near Wyndham Arcade
- Market loop location
- Budget-friendly
Our take
This suits budget-conscious fans who still want to be inside the walkable city centre loop rather than trading distance for a lower price. The market-side rooms sell out fastest of the budget cluster on this list. The 3.6 rating reflects a purely functional stay that delivers on location above all else.
- Book early for the market-side rooms, they sell out fastest of the budget options on this list.
- Eat at Viva Brazil Cardiff a minute away rather than venturing further into the crowded market streets.
- Use the Wyndham Arcade tram stop a minute away rather than waiting for a bus during matchday closures.

Why guests love itWe booked Travelodge Cardiff Central purely on price for a Wales match weekend, and the six minute walk to Cardiff Market plus the minute to Wyndham Arcade meant we did not feel like we had traded away the location for the lower cost. Viva Brazil Cardiff a minute from the door covered a quick pre-match meal, and the walk down towards the stadium the next day was short enough not to think twice about.
