B&B's/Hotels near Cardiff

[Otrere]

Anyone recommend any reasonably priced, decent B&B's or Hotels in or near to Splott in Cardiff?

There don't seem to be any hotels or B&Bs around Splott. The postcode around there is CF24. I've just checked all of the accommodation, with this postcode, here:
http://www.visitcardiff.com/Accommodation/Leis ure/Search-Accommodation-List.asp

There are only a few places with a CF24 postcode and they're all on Newport Road, at least three quarters of a mile from Splott Park. It's not that much further to the city centre, where there's a much wider choice of accommodation, or to Cathedral Road (where almost every other building seems to be a hotel or B&B).

Thie lack of accommodation around Splott isn't particularly surprising. Almost every large city in the UK is built on the basis that the employers' big houses (which are often turned into hotels or B&Bs) were constructed in the west of the city, whereas the workers' smaller houses (which are generally unsuitable for conversion to hotels) were built, alongside the factories, in the east. (This meant that the prevailing winds took the sort and grime away from the rich folk). There are rarely many hotels or B&Bs on the eastern side of any major UK city and it seems that Cardiff is no different.

I'm sorry that this is a rather negative post but I hope that the link, above, will help you with your search for somewhere suitable.
