Set in Newport's Pillgwenlly district, The Waterloo Hotel & Bistro is a 3-star Grade II-listed Victorian building featuring 20 en-suite rooms with original period details and modern amenities, including underfloor-heated bathrooms. Guests can choose from double, twin, family, or four-poster Tower rooms, each equipped with free WiFi, irons, and hair dryers. The on-site restaurant serves locally inspired menus, and private dining options are available for events. The hotel offers a conference room for up to 40 delegates, with flip charts and projector screens provided. Newport city centre is a 20-minute walk or short taxi ride away, while Cardiff is 45 km from the property. Free private parking is available.

Pros

The Tower rooms feature four-poster beds and Victorian-era charm.

Free private parking and WiFi are provided for guests.

The conference room accommodates up to 40 delegates with AV equipment.

Underfloor heating in bathrooms adds comfort during stays.

Cons

Some rooms may face street noise due to the hotel's central location.

No spa or fitness facilities are available on-site.

“The generous room sizes immediately stand out, complemented by exceptionally comfortable beds. On-site parking adds real convenience, particularly given its location near one of the city's notable landmarks. What impressed me most, however, was the staff's genuine welcome and helpfulness; they clearly prioritize a personal touch, making it a solid value stay.”
