Swansea Beach

8.8/10 (270 reviews)
Swansea Beach, the waterfront beach for the city of Swansea, stretches for five miles between the Maritime Quarter and the ‘Knab Rock’ near Mumbles in Wales. Popular since Victorian times, the beach throngs with sun-lovers during the summer months who come for the dunes, golden sands and fine swimming. It’s recommended by the Marine Conservation Society for the quality of its water and the cleanliness of the sand.

"The room was a decent size, but windows were leaking and the hot water took a long time to come through for a shower. One of the reasons I booked this hotel was there was a pool and jacuzzi, but they were closed. The breakfast was very good, plenty of choice. Overall it was ok for the price"
