Castle, 0.3 km from National Waterfront Museum

"I was visiting Abertawe for one night to see old friends and this was a great place to stay. Perfectly located in the heart of the city and just a short walk away from some great restaurants. The room had a luxury quality to it like the coffee machine and plump bathrobes. My only critique was the curvy headboard wasn’t very comfortable (I move around during the night and kept hitting my head on it!). The staff were lovely when I checked in - taking me and my case direct to my room. Wouldn’t...

Scenic View

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was absolutely immaculately clean. The beds were comfortable and the was plenty of space to relax in the lounge. The little balcony overlooking the marina was a lovely spot to have a cuppa! The location is very convenient for both the City Centre and the Beach. The host Joan was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely come back to Scenic View."

Meridian Tower Apartment

8/10 Good

"Joan our host was pleasant & helpful, and was flexible wrt our check in. The location is good, with a small supermarket located opposite the apartment block entrance. The is an upmarket restaurant also opposite and another at the top of the building (we didn’t visit either this stay). The view from the top is very good. Our apartment was spacious & comfortable and we found the washing machine very helpful. We didn’t use the kitchen much; no coffee machine, and a couple of instant coffee/tea bags provided. It would have been nice to have had some basic kitchen staples (oil, condiments, etc provided) - but we managed without. The surrounding area is OK but in need of some TLC. Location was good - easy walk to the seaside, shopping area and pubs. Secure parking is available but parking spaces and turning circles are tight (we had a medium sized SUV). Overall a pleasant and convenient stay with a lovely host."
