Top National Waterfront Museum Hotel Reviews

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 👍"

Village Hotel Swansea

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely welcome on arrival. Reasonable parking charge. Excellent pool and jacuzzi though not many seats/ sun beds."

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."

Marina View Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely apartment with great views over the Marina and a short walk to the beach and coastal walk. Plenty of bars and good restaurants within 2 to 15 mins walk and lots to see. Only 20 mins walk into the town centre. Pescado restaurant below is fabulous. The apartment has good sized rooms, a well equipped kitchen and internet connect TV. There is free parking over the road arranged by the owner. The block has an elevator though it is only 2 floors up if you want the exercise. We may well go back. Recommend."

Panoramic View

8/10 Good

"Lovely apartment, clean and tidy lovely view. Would benefit from a mirror with light ro do make up and hair. Only 1 wine glass and 1 Prosecco glass. Would have been nice to have a few more tea bags, coffee and sugar and a complementary pint of milk would have been nice"
