Top Swansea Hotel Reviews

The Grand Hotel Swansea

8/10 Good

"I could only find one three pin socket. Shower over bath not suitable for older guests with difficulties.i didn’t have time to ask for a change of room but I’m sure this would have been possible."

The Dragon Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location, price and staff. Parking too. We had a room for 3 adults but only had two towels and there was no hot water from the shower. The kettle also didn’t look the cleanest and had limescale. It’s perfect if you want cheap and cheerful for a night out but if you want comfort or are taking older family and friends it misses those final touches"

The Dolphin SA1 Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for weekend in Swansea"
