I stayed at the hotel adjacent to the David Lloyd health centre on the outskirts a couple of years ago.

Its a bit of a walk from the city, but who cares if you have won!!

Its only a pretty basic place, so dont expect to luxuries, but it was cheap, and most importantly it is close to the motorway so you wont be stuck in traffic for hours.

Cant remember the name, but if you look up David Lloyd in Cardiff it cant be difficult!

I wouldn't do that.

I live a couple of miles outside Cardiff and you wouldn't believe the amount of traffic that comes in. You definitely need to stay on the Welsh side of the bridge.

If you cant get into one of the big hotels this late, there are loads of B&B's on Newport Rd - walking distance ( or 5 mins on bus if lazy ) to the stadium - wont be anything flash but if its just somewhere to stay for one night after the game would be OK.

Failing that you can come and kip in my garage for an exhorbitant fee.
