1 / 9A bright, characterful twin room with two single beds – ideal for friends, colleagues or family travelling together to Cardiff Bay. 2 single beds, private en-suite with bath & shower, Smart TV, coffee machine and fast Wi‑Fi. Self check-in. Mermaid Quay, the Millennium Centre and the waterfront are just a few minutes' walk away.
The space
Each El Toro room has its own personality – bold statement wallpaper, vintage furniture and warm lighting – while keeping all the practical comforts of a hotel. This room features two comfortable single beds dressed in crisp hotel-quality linen, a desk area, wardrobe space and a flat-screen TV. Your private en-suite bathroom comes with a bath and shower, a heated towel rail, fluffy towels and quality toiletries. A coffee pod machine, kettle, tea and bottled water are ready for you when you arrive. El Toro (formerly Jolyon's Boutique Hotel) is now run as a self check-in boutique stay by CozyStay Management. There is no 24-hour reception or daily housekeeping – instead you get easy contactless arrival, a private room and a local team available by message from 9am to 9pm.
Guest access
Guests have private use of their room and en-suite bathroom, plus access to the shared entrance hall and staircase. Arrival is by self check-in – we'll send clear step-by-step instructions and access codes before your stay.
Other things to note
• The room is on an upper floor reached by stairs; there is no lift.
• There's no kitchen in the room, but Mermaid Quay's cafés and restaurants are a few minutes away.
• Cardiff Bay is lively on event and match days – rooms have double-glazed windows.
• Parking: please message us before booking to check current parking options.
The neighbourhood
You're on Bute Crescent in the heart of Cardiff Bay. Mermaid Quay's restaurants and bars, the Wales Millennium Centre, the Senedd, Roald Dahl Plass and the waterfront boardwalk are all a short stroll away, and Techniquest is right around the corner. Cardiff Bay train station and local bus stops are close by, so the city centre, Cardiff Castle and the Principality Stadium are only a quick ride away – ideal for concerts, rugby weekends and city breaks.
