National Assembly for Wales Reviews

Fantastic building with free entrance to the National Assembly of Wales. Highly recommended for its design and architecture, it has a cafeteria that allows you to be comfortable. Small shop Very nice

Visited the Senedd and enjoyed the architecture and explanation by the staff. Worth it!

The Welsh parliament building is beautiful. With its long swooping curves and it's wood and glass construction. Well worth a visit. The security is tight to get in but once inside you can see the debating chamber and have a coffee and cake in the cafe which has views to rivel any where. If you have not been, definitely worth a visit

If you visit Cardiff, a visit to the Welsh parliament, The Senedd is a must. It's situated in the trendy Cardiff Bay area. Once in the Senedd you can book to sit in the viewing gallery of the debating chamber. The debates are carried out in English and Welsh but there are headphones in the gallery that translate both languages

Excellent design. Worth having a rest here a coffee etc. Contemplate Welsh devolution & democracy. Strict security & friendly staff. Beautiful views of Cardiff Bay & adjoining buildings.

The tours here were awesome, the only downside is some of the miserable people that work there- but I guess that's politics!

Very friendly security and staff. Ask about the sustainability of the building; it s extremely interesting. My favourite place to be - so quiet and they have a nice coffee area and good views.

Beautiful sustainable design, admirable aim to provide an innovative space for transparency in government.

The building is spectacular. Wood and glass. You can attend the senators' sessions. We highly recommend getting to know the building and attending discussions. Very friendly security and administrative staff.

Wonderful building. It's arranged in a circular shape around a tree-like structure to encourage debate and exchange rather than confrontation.

Airport-like security to get in, except the officers here are very friendly and make it a very nice experience.

Past security, as we were approaching reception, a man stood up to meet us and offered us a guided tour which we were very happy to take. It was very informative and the man answered all our questions extensively.

Definitely worth visiting.

Interesting place to go, I went from school years ago but they gave a good tour of the building and the building it's self was really nice.

When I first saw this, I honestly thought it was a restaurant. Having gone in on a whim, I have to say that it delivers the symbolism it intended to, of open accessible government. Whether the politicians who work in there deliver the same openness and accessibility is a matter l ll leave to you to decide. It s worth stopping in if you re nearby if only to appreciate the building.

I absolutely loved it, the staff here are so helpful, the interior of the building is beautiful , what a wonderful bit of craftsmanship the Canadian cedar ceiling is, i also went on the guided tour into the Parliament chamber, that was well done and informative. If you are there i recommend going in and having a look . its free so why not give it a try, there is also a small shop and cafe inside.

I went for a tour there and the staff were great beautiful place and interesting day out.

A very unique building, the entrance is free and the public can attend the parliamentary stations. The building is made of iron, wood and very glass, which gives it a natural light that is highly recommended in rainy countries. It is a place beloved by the Welsh people, they have a good democratic culture and are proud of the place where the voice of the people represented by the politicians voted by the same people comes, that is, they have not abducted the parliament with an article 155.

The Welsh Assembly building is architecturally outstanding. The materials are superb and the curvaceous roof is a joy to behold. Another Richard Rogers masterpiece. There is a comprehensive tour at 11am, which is well worth participating. A constant visual bonus is the view towards the Bay.

Great place to visit the very friendly staff and the cafe serves delicious food

Amazing Building. You must visit. Not a very large building but interesting architecture style. The debating chamber is fascinating. Think it was opened in 2006 by the Queen. So not a lot of history yet.

Senedd, the glass house of Cardiff where Welsh Assembly Government meet. The building is a beautifully designed gem and a noticeable icon of Cardiff.

Situated in the centre of Cardiff bay, it has access to public transport and other attraction around the bay.

Beautiful place to photograph in both day and night.

This place is an incredible architectural achievement. It is a beautiful place to host large events. I have performed for many corporate receptions here including celebatory receptions for the Wales Rugby team on numerous occasions when they have returned from a Six Nations Grand Slam win and a World Cup semi final. I was also present to perform for the Wales Football team reception after their Euro 2016 victory. T every time the harp spunds even better in this place and the staff are always helpful, kind and accommodating. See a picture of THe Warren Gatland playing my harp below in front of the mushroom.
