Serviced apartments in Cardiff, run by the people who own them
Cardiff's apartments, run by the people who own them. Koo is 60+ self-catering serviced apartments across the city — from Cardiff Bay and the city centre to quiet residential streets in Cathays, Roath and Pontcanna. Not a marketplace, not a middleman: we own and look after every one.
Book direct and you get our best rate (no booking-site commission added on top), free cancellation on the standard rate, and a real local contact who knows Cardiff. Koo — from the Welsh cwsg, sleep. A good stay starts with a good night's sleep.
Why book direct
Same flat, better booking
Best price, booked direct
Booking here is booking with the owners — our best direct rate, with no booking-site commission added on top. The difference stays in Cardiff.
Real owners, not a call centre
Grown from one flat in 2015 to 60+ today, all ours. When you call or message, you reach the people who hold the keys.
Local Cardiff experts
We send you where we'd send a friend — and our Plan-your-stay helper maps what's on near your dates, on foot from your door.
Flexible by default
Free cancellation on the standard rate, full VAT invoices on request, and early access for direct guests to scarce peak-Cardiff dates.
Find the right part of Cardiff
Cardiff is compact and walkable. Cardiff Bay is the waterfront — restaurants at Mermaid Quay, the Wales Millennium Centre, and an easy hop to the city. The city centre puts you minutes from Principality Stadium, the castle, the shopping arcades and Cardiff Central station. Cathays, Roath, Pontcanna and Canton are leafy, residential and close to the universities, parks and independent cafés.
Pick an area below and we'll show you the apartments there, with transport, parking and walk-times spelled out so you know exactly what you're booking.
Why book direct with Koo
We own and run every apartment ourselves — 60+ across Cardiff, grown from a single flat in 2015. Booking here is booking with the people who hold the keys, so it's our best direct rate with no booking-site commission added on top.
Free cancellation on our standard rate, full VAT invoices on request, and early access for direct guests to scarce peak-Cardiff dates (Six Nations, stadium concerts) that are always in high demand.
What's included as standard
Fully furnished apartments with fast Wi-Fi, a fully equipped kitchen, smart TV, fresh linen and towels, and a professional clean before every stay. Utilities and (for shorter stays) council tax are inside the nightly price — no separate bills to set up.
Self check-in with keyless entry on most apartments, and a real, named local contact you can reach if anything comes up — not an overseas call centre.
Good to know
Why book direct instead of on a booking site?
Because we own the apartments, the price here is our best direct rate — when the same apartment shows up on a booking site it's our flat resold at our rate plus their commission, so booking direct cuts out that mark-up. Find it cheaper for the same dates and terms? Tell us and we'll look to match it. Direct also means free cancellation on the standard rate, a full VAT invoice on request, and a real person to call.
How many apartments do you have, and where?
60+ across Cardiff, including Cardiff Bay, the city centre, near Principality Stadium, Cathays, Roath, Pontcanna and Canton. We grew from a single flat in 2015 to 60+ today, all owner-run to the same standard.
What are check-in and check-out times?
Check-in is typically from 3pm and check-out by 10am. Most apartments have keyless self check-in, and early check-in or late check-out can often be arranged in advance for a small charge.
