Top Swansea University Hotel Reviews

Village Hotel Swansea

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about our stay was delightful, the hotel was very clean and the staff very helpful, would stay again, only downside was the prices in the bar but other than that could not fault the hotel, very modern"

The Dragon Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel needs updating, looking very tired. Was on the 7th floor only 1 lift working. Gym and pool not available. Location is good for Central Swansea"

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."

The Grand Hotel Swansea

10/10 Excellent

"Really great experience for us the second time round for staying there. Had the deluxe room and it even came with the hot tub as a nice surprise for us both. Fab stay will return again before Christmas 2026 👍"

The Georgian Swansea

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Room decoration is lovely and super comfortable bed. Super friendly staff. Great to be able to store bags before and after stay. Only minor downside is the noise from the dual carriageway but fine with ear plugs."

Morgans Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Quiet rooms. Excellent breakfast. Friendly staff"

Hoopers Sandy Beach Guest Rooms

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, Paul the Owner or Manager was Great, if you are looking for accommodation close to town and right on the beach in Swansea then give Hoopers a call. The room I was in had recently been decorated and had a new bathroom."

Somerfield Lodge

8/10 Good

"It as fine"

Oriental Suite

10/10 Excellent

"Boutique hotel in the Uplands area of Swansea. Good ambiance as you walk in the door to the hallway. The oriental suite was full of character and great attention to detail to maintain the theme in the room. Plenty of amenities to use whilst in the room. 2 min walk to the nearest bars and restaurants. A great find."
