Delta Hotels by Marriott Swansea

8/10 Good
"The Delta Hotels by Marriott proved to be an excellent last-minute choice for our stay on 25-26 September 2026. The hotel's location is a real highlight. It's within easy walking distance of the city centre, Swansea Marina & the seafront, making it an ideal base for exploring the city. It was also particularly convenient for Swansea Bay parkrun, which was one of the reasons for our visit. We were impressed by how quiet the hotel was. Despite its central location, the sound insulation was excellent a & we enjoyed two peaceful nights' sleep. The staff were consistently welcoming, friendly and helpful throughout our stay, creating a positive first impression from check-in onwards. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean and very comfortable, offering plenty of room to relax after a day out. While the hotel is well maintained, it is starting to show its age in a few areas. The air conditioning worked well enough but was noticeably louder than in more modern hotels. The main drawback was the bathroom design. The shower is fitted over a particularly high bath, making entry and exit difficult. A refurbishment programme that replaces these baths with modern walk-in showers would make the hotel much safer and more accessible for guests. Overall a great stay."

"Lovely room with an amazing view. Facilities were great, and there were lots of lovely little touches, such as the dressing gowns. Also I had asked if there would be any oat/soya milk available as I have an intolerance, when we arrived there was not only oat milk but gluten and dairy free cereals, biscuits and yoghurt. Very appreciated Only drawback was the lack of parking, it's a shame that something can't be worked out with the council to get a reduced rate. Would recommend this place, and we would definitely stay there again."

The Gower Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is on turnoff right on a junction and down a steep narrow lane. Car parking is at the back of the hotel but it has quite a narrow entrance and is up a steep driveway. We managed to get our Mondeo in and up the drive, but it was a careful manoeuvre, We had one of the boutique bedrooms with a king-size. The room was spotlessly clean, tastefully furnished and very roomy, with a separate large bathroom with walk in shower and deep bath. Tea/coffee making facilities were included and the wi-fi had a strong signal and good speed. The Hotel has a snug bar and a large restaurant where breakfast was also served. The cooked breakfast offered was very generous and well cooked, and cereals, pastries and fruit were also available. We also had an evening meal which was excellent. The staff were all friendly and polite, and extremely helpful with their advice on places to visit and good places to eat (the restaurant was closed on the Monday when we arrived) The location is lovely and peaceful, within in easy driving to The Mumbles, Langlands and a 30 minute drive drive to beautiful Rhossili."
