Delta Hotels by Marriott Swansea
Clean room, a little dated. Noisy heater which woke me up a couple of times. Comfy bed and nice bedding. Staff all polite and friendly. Breakfast was fine. Parking on site £5 a night. Didn’t use the bar - it was quite busy. Lovely view across the bar to The Mumbles

Plenty of room to park by the Guest House & as an occupational therapist, I was impressed that there was excellent provision for people with mobility issues in the room. It’s in a beautiful & peaceful area. Highly recommended. Da iawn!
