The Holiday Inn Cardiff City Centre has unveiled a £500,000 refurbishment that has transformed its public spaces. The stylish new open lobby, designed to provide guests with one multi-faceted public space to eat, meet, relax, socialise, and work as they choose, will revolutionise the way guests stay at the Cardiff hotel.

The traditionally separate zones of a reception, lobby, bar, lounge, restaurant, and business centre have been merged into one cohesive space. Key new features include free high-speed Wi-Fi, an all day dining menu, a living-room-style media lounge with comfy seating, games, magazines, and TVs, and an E-Bar where guests can relax.

Richard Platts, the general manager for the Holiday Inn Cardiff City Centre, commented: “I’m thrilled to welcome guests to our new open lobby space. Already, we can see how guests are ‘living’ differently at the hotel and making full use of every new zone, which is exactly what we wanted with this investment. There are so many options and areas to plug in or switch off that our business and travel guests will love what we’ve done. The new open lobby will also appeal to local Cardiff residents and networking groups, as well as families of Welsh rugby players and past rugby stars who often call in when Wales play at home. We are well equipped to host everybody on all occasions.”
