The breakfast was very good
The location is very poor. It is right next door to Swansea’s train station so very noisy, the car park is shared with train station and does not feel safe. Rooms were of very poor quality lacking basic facilities.
The pictures advertising the hotel are very misleading.
4.1
I loved the spa bath and how big and comfy the bed was! Staff were always friendly and if we asked for anything nothing was too much.
The bathroom sometimes smelt like sewage.
Buttons were missing off the light switches on the wall.
I’m someone who loves to have AC and was thrilled when the room had AC… The problem was that there was no remote control for it, I spent every night trying to figure out how to change the mode on the AC, it wasn’t doable. It was on heating mode constantly but on the lowest setting possible. In some ways it was nice, in other ways I woke up sweating and sticking to the bed sheets.
Other than that it wasn’t a bad stay, but I would recommend getting better tvs with Netflix available, my stay cost a total of £501 for 3 nights, it was good and it had its luxury vibe to it. But I’ve stayed in other places for a cheaper price with better tv and ac options. I would love to stay here again but maybe if there has been improvements made.
The walls are also quite thin so you will hear doors closing and people talking, walking around etc.
the toilet seat was also wobbly and broken so that might need replacing. But other than that it’s still a lovely hotel.

The staff were amazing everything I needed help with they were there straight away, room was amazing. The bed was by far the comfiest bed iv ever slept in
Only thing that I could possibly say bad about the hotel was the view from my room
4.1
very stylish lovely Welsh decor
4.1
The staff were all very pleasant and welcoming. The hotel has been recently refurbished and was very comfortable.
The only negative was a set of sofas in the bar had seen better days but apparently the owner has a sentimental attachment to them. After the lovely foyer they came as a bit of a shock and put a bit of doubt in my head as to what the bedrooms were going to be like. Thankfully the bedroom was lovely.

Clean and friendly 👌
4.1
Location was perfect it was right opposite the main train station and car park was literally a 2 min walk, there’s a Tesco express right opposite also. we had a fridge in our room which I wasn’t expecting so that was a plus. even though it’s by a busy area you can’t hear it in the rooms they are so quiet and peaceful. it’s a 10 minute walk from the Main Street which is really handy for drinks and food if you wanted to dine out like we did, staff were very friendly and room was clean honestly couldn’t fault it at all
