First time I have been to this escape room in Cardiff. Was a brilliant afternoon and quite challenging. Myself, my boyfriend, his friend and partner did the oculus room, which… read more we all thourghly enjoyed.
The room was laid out well and even though there was 4 adults in the room it didn’t feel too crowded which was good. We all manged to work thibgs out and got out with just over a minute to spare!
I will definatly be coming back here because I want to try all the other rooms lol.
Thanks to all the staff who were all very welcoming and helpful! See you all again soon!

  Brilliant experience – I loved this experience! The sherlock room was amazing and 100% recommend! Thanks to our host bebe, ❤️❤️ it was brilliant and the group managed to clear the room in about 43 minutes

  Enjoyed a good time here. Staff very helpful, efficient and friendly. Room layout was challenging but fun.

  Lauren was great – she booked us in at a few hours notice on the phone and was our host for the room. We did Sherlock Holmes and it had… read more a nice mixture of props and skills needed. Lauren also said it had been recently redone which was a nice touch.

  Oculus room is tough but fun – We did the Oculus room with the very handsome Huey.
It’s quite a difficult room and I think if you can get through this without any clues at all,… read more that would be very impressive.
The room was very detailed design and felt very immersive. Good mix of mostly mental puzzles.

  Truly incredible – The whole experience was really fun and exciting, like being a child again with many rooms to chose from!! Our game host, Toni was fun and enthusiastic and really added… read more to the joy of the room. Would definitely recommend as a fun family activity all the way through to a couples date night!

  Great fun! – Went as a family group of 5, did the Sherlock room. Great fun, really well thought out, everything was thoroughly explained bef5we started. Will definitely go again.

  We did the Zombie room last 30th of December and really loved every single bit. Friendly staff, professional design and organisation, and once in the room the atmosphere was great.… read more Some escape rooms focus too much on that but are weaker on playability. Not this...More

  We did the Cardiff Castle room, its was good fun with some challenging puzzles. Amelia the host was brillaint, really friendly and explained anything we didnt understand at the end.… read more
Look forward to coming back! Thank you!

  Best escape room I’ve done – challenging but really good fun. Definitely worth going and Dan was brilliant.

  Massive thanks from Escape Reality Scotland – Came here on a work night , we work at Escape Reality Edinburgh & Glasgow and wanted to have a great time. Escape Rooms Cardiff delivered with an outstanding experience… read more in Astro Quest.

A brilliant recommendation and a fantastic room throughout that’ll have you smiling from ear to ear.

Thank you for hosting us!

  I went with my friends around late Christmas time, it wasn’t too busy and the service was really good. We went into the first room and got stuck . I… read more am still here now and I am staving help

  Excellent game, host and experience – looking forward to retuning to try another room – We booked into the Castle Room, as a family of 4 (2 adults & 2 children). The room and challenges were excellent (a lot better than the previous escape room… read more we had done elsewhere), super detailed and realistic, we had such a great visit. Our game host ‘Luna’ was great too and made the trip really enjoyable, and she was great when explaining it all to our kids (aged 11 & 9) who have never experienced an escape room.

  Fun time here with 2 friends, first time trying an escape room and enjoyed it, the tomb was challenging enough to be enjoyable but not so hard that it frustrates… read more you. Amelia was a great host also.

  Fantastic, fun and original! – We had a fantastic time at Escape Rooms Cardiff. We came this morning to play Oculus. It was fantastic, creepy and the perfect level of difficulty. Meg was great and… read more super helpful especially as we’ve not done many rooms with just two people before.

We enjoyed it so much we came back later today to do Astro Quest. It was the best escape room we’ve ever done! definitely a great way to bring out your inner child and feel like you’re in an episode of Dr Who! The clue/ challenges were so original and I’d not seen many of them before.

Felix was also great, knowing not to give us too many clues but one or two when we really needed a nudge!

We can’t wait to come back soon to do the remaining rooms. Thank you

  What a fantastic experience. Find the clues against the clock to find Sherlock Holmes. Ingenious clues to work your way to the final goal, thoroughly recommended. Great team building exercise… read more or just a fun time with friends.

  I came here a couple of weeks ago and it was really good! Amelia was our host and she was lovely. We did the oculus room and it was really… read more interesting. It’s not the cheapest escape room in Cardiff but the puzzles were fab. Some of them I’d have not figured out without the hints but Amelia was really helpful and we got out with 6 minutes to spare!

  Fab First Escape Room Experience – Went as a family of 4 (2 children aged 13 & 10) which was first time for all of us doing an escape room, didn’t know what to expect, did… read more not disappoint.
We did Astro Quest and Toni was our host. We all enjoyed it and all participated and contributed. The kids were inquisitive when we were in the room and noticed things that once we found a clue they realised what it related to. Toni was enthusiastic and gave us hints when needed when we were close but not too much that it gave it away.
If you haven’t done an escape room before this is a great starter with lovely staff. Break up your shopping day by having some fun here. Looking forward to doing another one.

  Great entertainment for families with teen.Well organised, helpful clues and friendly staff. A fun packed evening.

  My husband and I are huge fans of escape rooms and have done about 8 so far. The 3 best ones have all been at Escape Rooms Cardiff. Not only… read more has it seemed the best actual rooms/escape experiences, but it has also had the best staff (friendly and very helpful, without being intrusive), the best atmosphere and general set up and the best location (in my opinion).

  This is the sixth Escape Room I’ve done this year and unfortunately the first real disappointment I’ve had (which is a shame because this was my first visit to this… read more particular place). My partner and I did the Sherlock Holmes themed room for my birthday which I was excited about because I’m a fan of the Great Detective. Literally one of the first puzzles to solve malfunctioned, that is, the lock wouldn’t open despite the fact we had the correct solution (and before you ask, yes, we had clicked it twice). I’ve had Escape Rooms malfunction before, I get it, it happens, it’s hard to make it work perfectly every time, but usually the staff have the grace to acknowledge it. Instead we were told there was ‘no issue’ which was weird because, ya know, we had, in fact, just HAD an issue. If we can’t open something despite having the correct solution then there demonstrably IS an issue, made us think that we hadn’t got the correct solution meaning that we wasted a lot of time and rather spoiled the game for us right at the beginning (had another lock malfunction later in the game too but not quite as badly, I don’t know, maybe it was the cold weather). Many of the ‘hints’ came long after we had already solved the puzzles, despite being told that we could be seen and heard at all times (this was a problem on the very first puzzle where we found the solution quickly but couldn’t progress because of the malfunction). A shame really because I liked the room broadly, it had some clever and unexpected puzzles though the anachronisms somewhat spoiled the immersion for me, but I am a stickler for theme so that is just personal taste I guess. Out of the three Escape Rooms I’ve been to in Cardiff it is the only one I’ve had a bad experience at. All in all, I left in a bad mood and it makes me reluctant to go back.

  Went as a family of 4, really good from start to finish, Meg met us, talked us through and was a great host. A fantastic experience for all, we did… read more Z! and managed to escape… just, with a little help.

  Came to Cardiff for my Hen Do weekend. Decided to kick the night off with escape room Z!
One of the best escape rooms I have done, really friendly and… read more welcoming staff too.
Thank You for being part of our great night!
Anyone reading this review needs to get booked in!!

  Had a really great time at the Cardiff Castle experience for a work social. The puzzles, sets, props, etc were awesome and our host, Meg, was really lovely! Will definitely… read more be back to try another game 🙂

  First time for all of us in an escape room game. Lauren was so helpful and professional and the game was so much fun. The game was challenging and… read more well laid out. Definitely makes you think and work together which we’re not very good at. I’m sure another visit will do us good ! We didn’t get out in time but enjoyed it immensely. We can’t wait to go again Thank you

  Great place  – First time to visit here and to do an escape room.
Had no clue what to expect, it was great fun working everything out. We did the serial killer room… read more which we was told was one of the harder rooms to do especially not even doing an escape room before. We will be back to do the other rooms. Great staff very helpful quick service
Thank you guys see you soon 😊

  Loved it, amazing! Perfect clue timing, wasn’t patronising even when we were dumb, definitely coming back – had Arron, lovely bloke, thanks 🙂

  We went as a group of 5 to the Cardiff Castle escape room, it was really enjoyable and challenging enough to keep us puzzling through the clues, and the hints… read more were helpful without giving too much away. Meg was our host, she was very friendly and explained everything clearly.
The whole experience was great, and the staff were really understanding when we emailed to say we were run a little bit late, replying quickly to our message.
Definitely recommend them, and would go back to try another room.

  Had an amazing experience in the oculus room, with the help of many hints ended up close to escaping in the time limit, was a lovely day out and many… read more thanks to our host Tod who was a massive help and very welcoming!

  Great fun! – Astro Quest is a really great room, design was brilliant and puzzles were engaging and fun. Rauri our host was friendly and helpful. Would recommend !
