Viewed across Westgate Street in the city centre. The blue plaque on the left records that it was in this hotel than Captain Robert Falcon Scott and the men of his British Antarctic Expedition attended their last public banquet before departing on June 15th 1910 from Cardiff aboard Terra Nova, beginning their journey to the South Pole. The Captain Scott Room is preserved in their memory.
