The Mumbles Carlton Hotel

Parking is not good in mumbles

Reception area a little unwelcoming and no obvious entrance

It was very old and outdated with very old wallpaper and furniture. We saw one member off staff when we checked in and then no-one the whole weekend. The bar was shut with no explanatoion why. No food or breakfast. This hotel was shocking and we should be getting some sort off refund. We should have been told this before we turned up and given a choice as to if we still wanted to stay. The room was stuck in time with the fake roof and wall paper. The worst bit was we stayed in a pub hotel so we could be surounded by a bit off energy and life, but never seen anyone. The floor boards creaked and it was a horrible experience, My partner could not sleep as she thought we were about to be abducted in this strange place.

A hostel not a hotel and was vastly over priced. Without doubt the worst place we have had the misfortune to stay. Amazed that booking.com are promoting it. Not even a toilet roll holder and no shower mat.

Parking: according to booking.com hotel had parking which is why we booked
However the hotel subsequently contacted us to explain they had no parking but there was on street parking but with time restrictions
Facilities - the room was very small especially for 2 tall people and their luggage

The rest of the hotel dated and damp smell
Had to park at our own risk on the road outside the hotel .. Staff said the council said they will start charging to park but didn't know when it would start

Geen lift en erg gedateerd, geen faciliteiten in het hotel

Pretty much no toiletries in bathroom, sachets of shampoo and very small soaps. For the money paid I’d expect more to be supplied.
The reception was barely manned. Had to ring a bell or telephone if staff were needed. Considering the price I’d expect the reception to be on hand.
Room 6 is right at the top of the hotel, 3.5 flights of stairs, got up to the room and key had stopped working! Not impressed that I had to go all the way back to reception, wait for them to answer the call bell and issue a new key. It happened again but this time I kept trying, pushed key in more forcefully and it worked… might’ve been a connection issue.
The hotel has a bar which last time we stayed we had used several times in the evening. This time, even though it was a very warm and busy weekend, it was closed the whole time.
I’m not sure we will stay again. They charge a lot for what they actually supply. Breakfast or any type of food is not available.
There is street parking which is now 3 hours free, no return for 3 hour.

I can't think of anything negative about this hotel. I will definitely return

It was a little dated so bedroom could be modernised and colour co-ordinated. There was a bar but it was closed.

I had put in the filter that we needed parking and breakfast, so when this hotel came up I assumed it had those things. It didn't have either. My fault for not reading the small print better. parking was very tricky, though the Landlord gave us his space the first night to help us out. We thought it was expensive as it didn't include breakfast. Shampoo sachet was available the first day, but not the 2nd. I was glad I had brought my own. We didn't have the Wifi advertised in our room, only found it the next morning on the lobby wall. Having it in the room would have been helpful.

We needed a few hooks in the bathroom, and surfaces. Had to put things on the floor. An anti slip mat in the bath too.
