To mark one year since opening its doors, Cardiff’s most luxurious destination, The Parkgate Hotel, hosted a glamorous first birthday party with a host of local celebrities and the city’s movers and shakers in attendance.

Dating from the turn of the 20^th Century, The Parkgate Hotel opened in October 2021, following a two-year redevelopment. Housed inside the former Head Post Office and Cardiff’s old County Court, its striking period features have been brought out in a careful restoration, marrying stylish innovation with the elegance of yesteryear.

Celebrating the hotel’s inaugural year in the city, guests who gathered to toast the occasion included Love Island’s Paige Thorne, Wales rugby players Liam Williams, Gareth Anscombe and Rhys Priestland, boxer Joe Cordina, and actor Julian Lewis Jones .

Paying homage to the hotel’s historic roots, the 1920’s-inspired party took place in the elegant surroundings of The Sorting Roombrasserie, where attendees enjoyed a VIP experience with champagne and canapés, cocktails, and entertainment from the Rat Pack-inspired swing band, Jazzbomb.

Located within a stone’s throw of Principality Stadium on Westgate Street, The Parkgate Hotel is a collaboration between the Welsh Rugby Union, property developer Rightacres, and The Celtic Collection, the group behind the iconic Celtic Manor Resort.
