Pros:

I have stayed here 4 times, in room 8 and had an amazing experience every time. I booked nearly 3 months in advance, and requested room 8. I have mobility issues and there is a lift to the first floor, and this room has a walk in shower.
On arrival at the hotel, check in was very quick, but there was no conversation, we were told to follow the corridor and our room.was on the first floor. I got to the lift, and it was out of order, and remained so for the duration of the stay. This posed quite a problem for me negotiating 3 flights of stairs. I feel that bookings should have been notified about the lift. To my further dismay, i was in room 6, which had an over bath shower. This was very problematic for me. The room was lovely, although there was a half empty bottle of water in the fridge. We ate what we thought was a complimentary mini tub of pringles, only to discover they were £2.50. At check out i volunteered this information to be told i would be billed by housekeeping. Check out was very quick and easy, mainly because thats all the lady said.
This is a beautiful place to stay, in a gorgeous location, and while i would stay again for this reason, Ive come away feeling somewhat disappointed.

Perfect location, overlooking the beach and surrounded by eateries/bars for a buzzing nightlife! Bed super comfy and rainforest shower was awesome! Didn't get the chance to use the bar/restaurant but def will next time. It looks very swish and plenty of tables. The staff were fantastic too, super helpful and kind. Thank you 😊

Fabulous hotel.
Pros:

We were greeted by a charming guy called Alex. He was so friendly and welcoming. He did his very best to give us a room with a sea view, even though we’d not originally requested one. Rooms are comfortable, bed was comfy and we slept well. The hotel is near all amenities and wonderful walks around Mumbles and the pier. We’ll definitely stay here again.

Pros:

One of our favourite places we have stayed. Hotel was beautiful, location was fantastic and the views from the room were amazing! The bed is one of the most comfortable beds we’ve slept in. The staff were very attentive. We had breakfast on the outside terrace and that was delicious. We use to live in swansea so we knew parking on the road up by verdis is free so we parked there and walked down (parking by the hotel is pricey). Had the best stay! Highly recommend
