The Exchange Hotel is undoubtedly one of the most elegant wedding venues in Cardiff. And with the help of our experienced wedding coordinators, a wedding at the Exchange means you can sit back and relax as we take care of the organising.
Located within the former Coal Exchange building, the Exchange’s largest venue radiates character, charm and a unique history that simply can’t be replicated.
A striking venue to accommodate larger parties of friends and family, our largest events space was once known as Cardiff Bay’s grand trading hall, and the room’s intricate details have certainly been preserved.
The hall continues to showcase its infamous ceiling and classic, wooden interior, yet the Exchange Grand Hall now offers a stylish wedding space with the perfect balance of modern twists.
For slightly more intimate weddings, we also have our Grand Bassey Hall available for wedding ceremonies. In keeping with the rest of the hotel, you can expect only the most luxurious décor within a spectacular setting.
When it comes to fantastic food, your nearest and dearest won’t be disappointed by the menu at Cully’s Restaurant. Serving hearty, delicious dishes prepared to perfection, our very own team will ensure that your day runs smoothly, from start to finish.
Of course, guests don’t have to go their separate ways at the end of the night. Weddings at the Exchange mean you can dance the night away, before sinking into our luxury beds once the partying has ended!
We offer an array of beautiful rooms to accommodate your guests, equipped with only the best facilities. Our rooms feature multiple double beds and whirlpool baths for relaxation and pampering.
And the following morning, celebrations can continue as you tuck into an exquisite wedding breakfast prepared by our team. Your wedding can be as sociable or cosy as you desire; we can tailor our venue’s features just for you.
We’re dedicated to making your wedding more than just an exciting day; at the Exchange Hotel, we make weddings an experience that you’ll cherish forever.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our stay last month! It’s a beautiful hotel with lots of history. We had excellent food for both dinner and breakfast. Had a comfy room with a jacuzzi in the bathroom. The bed was very very comfy and we even had a Dyson fan to keep us cool. Ran into a few problems in the room, to which the staff, special shout out to Paul and David, were brilliant and attended to immediately. Definitely staying there again!

    What s hidden gem this places is. Staff were amazing the old school Outlook of the building was jaw-dropping in areas. keeping all the old features of the building from past looks amazing. The exchange is very old Building and still going through building process, I do believe this will be the best hotel in Cardiff when fully finished. 100% worth a stay or a meal in the restaurant.

    Lovely building, great bed and vintage furniture. Jacuzzi bath was huge! Had problems with TV and air conditioning but reception quickly sent someone to rectify these. Breakfast was incredibly tasty and great quality. Lots of options. Could easily get lost from the car park to hotel, it's quite a distance away if you had a lot to carry or mobility problems

    Absolutely blown away by how friendly, warm & welcoming the staff were. Particularly Ethan one of the waiters and Anna on reception… this was my second stay and the jacuzzi baths had doubled in size. The food was absolutely divine and I’ve never tasted lamb that was cooked so perfectly. Can’t recommend this place enough. Rooms get very warm but that couldn’t be helped with the weather we’ve had. More than capable of hitting 5 stars if they just brushed up slightly on their cleanliness but that’s my only flaw. Thank you so much for making our anniversary a special one! See you next year :)

    We came here for a night to give my daughter a hotel experience. The rooms advertised were stunning with jacuzzi baths. We did not get any such room. Although the room was nice the bathroom was not. There was not even a full length mirror. We dined at the hotel in the evening, we prepaid for the 2 course meal, yet when we got to the restaurant most items on the menu had supplements on top of what we had already paid. This was not as advertised at all. The steak had a £15 supplement on top of the £22 we had already paid. My daughters chicken nuggets were dried up. It was quite disappointing. The hotel itself is stunning and the staff were friendly and helpful.
