Voco St. David’s Cardiff unveils new Tiger Bay floor amid £650k refurb

Voco St. David’s Cardiff has unveiled a substantial £650k investment into the hotel’s 7th floor, marking the inaugural phase of an extensive room renovation project, with all floors planned for completion by 2026.

Known as The Tiger Bay Floor, located at the very top of the hotel, the 12 rooms, two Junior Suites, and two Tiger Bay Suites, are designed to offer an “elevated stay” for guests.

The Tiger Bay Floor offers enhanced amenities and boasts panoramic views of Cardiff Bay and its skyline. In undertaking the refurbishment, the hotel has upheld its environmental commitments by using recycled material bedding, aerated shower heads for reduced water consumption, reusable glass water bottles, and recycled pillow and duvet fillings. All rooms also feature GrafClean, a CO2-absorbing paint by Graphenstone, marking a pioneering step towards a more sustainable future for Voco hotels.

The renovation follows a £300k investment into the five-star spa facilities last year and is part of a wider multi-million pound investment plan for the waterfront hotel, which enters its 25th year in 2024.

Konstantin Grimm, general manager at voco St David’s Cardiff, said: “We are delighted to unveil our brand new Tiger Bay floor. Every aspect of each room has been carefully curated to provide the most luxurious stay for each of our guests, whilst still retaining the feeling of a home away from home.

“This substantial £650k investment into the Tiger Bay floor is part of a wider multi million pound project as we plan to elevate the entire hotel to a new level of lifestyle-luxury, whilst also taking our responsibility of creating a sustainable future seriously. We can’t wait to welcome guests old and new to indulge in a stay on the Tiger Bay floor that celebrates the area’s rich cultural heritage with a brand new contemporary feel.”
