Cardiff is a nice...

Cardiff is a nice city. Not too big but not small. It feels very friendly and the parks here are great. There's plenty of fun activities and cafés to hang out with friends in the evening and it feels quite safe in town since it's not too big. It's also not too expensive living here. The public transport is pretty bad, but if you live near town you can pretty much walk everywhere. Cycling lanes are alright in town, not good on the outskirts of town but brilliant through the parks. The Christmas market and Winter Wonderland are also must-visits if you're near Cardiff around Christmas. However it is very student-y. If you're into night life that's great. But if you're looking to meet people with different backgrounds and ways of life, Cardiff might not be for you. In conclusion nice small feeling city with lots going on during term time, but definitely not a melting pot. read more

cardiff is the cheapest city. I haven’t eaten out all too much so take that rating lightly. RE nights out, society socials are always fun, and the SU is a good night out. Some of the other clubs in the city centre are good too. I’m not the biggest party goer but when I have it was fun. Shopping is good because there is everything you need in the city centre, and the city centre isn’t too big either. So shopping is relatively quick. RE transport - London is far better for transport but you can get by with Cardiff. read more

Lots of shops available in City Centre for general shopping, transport via Bus in great value for money, however don’t use Uber and they just sit there and wait for the expensive jobs because all they care about is making money even though half of them can’t drive properly so will probably pay more in fines than they actually get paid.

Cardiff is a small city compared to where I am from but for a small city it has everything you need.

If the bus service was better I would rate Cardiff much higher. read more

Your experience in Cardiff depends on which campus of Cardiff University you choose, if you choose the Cathays campus which is close to the city centre, you will be able to enjoy all the amenities of Cardiff city centre, including eating, drinking and playing. The nearby Bute Park is a good place to walk. Also, for those who love football, Cardiff has a Championship team, Cardiff City, whose home ground is only a few kilometres from the city centre, you can go there on foot if you like. If you want to relax, you can also take the train. read more

Best student accommodation Ive every lived in!! Zenith has a rooftop bar perfect for sunset lovers and golden hours it also has a game area, a cinema and perfect study spaces overall the facilities are amazing! Location wise its aprox a 5-8 min walk to town and 10-15min to Cardiff Bay, however, you have a supermarket right next door to Zenith and we are also offered bicycles to explore around :) Zenith staff regularly organises activities such as movie nights allowing us to choose the movies or basketball tournaments and much much more.. The staff is great, always helping out and making us have the best experience (especially Angela, always so friendly and helpful). I love the Zenith experience and Very much recommend! Thank you Zenith, will miss you all! read more

Cardiff is cheaper but only because compared to other major UK cities like Birmingham, London, Manchester, theres not really much in terms of a "town center". The retail experience here is nothing special and theres not much range in food beyond chinese, indian, chicken and chips, maccas and the token wagamamas. Nights out are decent and there are a lot of clubs but nothing life changing so far. I think visually though wales is a very beautiful place to live, I find myself comparing it to London constantly. read more
