"Very helpful staff. We were in the apartment which was lovely, our own space and an area for us all to gather and natter with a cuppa. The bed was huge. Tea and coffee facilities, hairdryer, iron and ironing board and toiletries all available in the room. Breakfast was very good, great choice too. We ate in the restaurant on the first night, booked for us by the hotel. Very handy as we didn't have to think about finding somewhere. The food was very good. We would stay again. Thanks"

"A great place to stay. Our room was the large king size which had a feel of luxury. We alsohad a very large walk in shower. The whole decor was totally my taste. The dinner at the inn where you check in was just delicious. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Great location for exploring Penyfan and the waterfall. They also had parrots and a micro zoo. I would definitely recommend this accommodation."

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 location is perfect for driver or by train. The public parking lot, Co op, Chip shop, train station and high street are within 5 minutes away. The newly renovated room is brilliant, clean and modern. There maybe a bit traffic in early morning. Earbuds will sort it out. I almost forgot the staff was so helpful n friendly and the food downstairs was yummy n good price"
