The hotel had a convenient location near the beach and Mumbles Pier, ideal for exploring the area. The rooms, though a bit small and lacking a bath, were adequate for a short stay. The service varied from very friendly and attentive to less welcoming. The dining experience offered good value but was inconsistent in portion sizes. Overall, a mixed experience with some highlights and room for improvement.

The hotel was lovely, but not soundproof, making it a bit noisy until the early hours. There was no staff member available to address the issue, which was disappointing and affected my overall experience positively.

Rooms

The room was lovely with a great sea view, but the lack of soundproofing was a drawback. However, the room was comfortable and clean.

The service was excellent from the time of booking to the actual stay. Amy was particularly helpful and accommodating. However, an unexpected fee of 25 pounds for a room upgrade was a slight downside.

Location

The location was beautiful, right on the seafront close to the town for easy exploration, but some parts of the hotel seemed outdated and could use renovation for a cozier atmosphere.

Dining

7.0

The dining experience was overall good, with friendly staff and attention to detail. However, the noise from a pump starting early in the morning was disruptive. The extra charge of about £9/head was a bit pricey for the quality.

Facilities

The hotel offers a fabulous location near the seafront of Mumbles with beautifully decorated and clean surroundings. While the rooms could benefit from improvements in fittings and noise reduction, the friendly and attentive staff add a warm touch to the overall experience.

The dining experience was pleasant with fresh fruit offerings, but limited vegetarian options were a downside. The meals were priced reasonably at £18 for three courses.
