Had my wedding at the Village, Swansea in September. From the moment I viewed it, the welcome from Annabel and all the bits in between were perfect. The hospitality was amazing… everything went so smoothly. The events team were simply amazing, I didn’t have anything to worry about or do on the day of the wedding, it was all taken care of by Annabel and the fantastic team. They took on bored my vision and went above and beyond to create it. Special mention to the bar staff upstairs - I think it was one of the girls first night… you were amazing! I had so many people saying how good you were, friendly, fun and just lovely people. You managed the masses like pros! Our room was beautiful… all the little touches like champagne, chocolates, banners etc made it all so much more personal and I will forever be grateful for all the effort, fun, stress-free stay you all helped create xx

Attended the Pub & Grill last night with family members for food and drinks before heading to the Swansea Arena.We had a lovely welcome by staff and located our reserved table quickly. Menu had plenty of choice. Food was served in a timely manner and was delicious. Staff couldn't do enough for us. Finished off with a 20 minute walk into the centre of Swansea. Fantastic experience and will be visiting again.

Friends of mine stayed here for three nights last weekend and had a wonderful welcome and could not thank the GM and staff for the hospitality afforded them. They were fortunate to stay in one of the newly decorated rooms that were very comfortable and tastefully presented. Working myself in the hospitality industry it’s so important to make your guests feel welcome. I would definitely have no problem in recommending this hotel.

I am a member at the Village Swansea Gym, I also use for Swimming coaching. I often use the restaurant and have stayed in the rooms. I very much enjoy visiting every time I go and cleanliness of particularly changing areas and facilities is excellent, the gym is very well equipment and packed with excellent facilities with very modern equipment. Rooms are very good value for money and the food and choice in the restaurant is great giving a good range to suit everyone. Staff are welcoming and always available to support and put member needs as a priority. Will continue my membership for many years no doubt.

Sadly, we did not see some of the reviews already left about the noise issues before we booked, as we too were given a room on the second floor and were awoken at 06:15 by techno music and a shouting fitness instructor in the gym below.I am not talking about a little background noise, it was a full-on window rattling experience.The reception staff on the main desk and gym were apologetic but ineffectual as the class, at the same volume, continued for the full half an hour.After a long drive from Kent the day before, littered with delays, and the prospect of a long day ahead at a graduation it was not the ideal situation.I am not expecting a monastery when booking a city centre hotel room, traffic noise, other guests, even a function is all par for the course. Our companions in another part of the hotel did sadly have to put up with noise and music from an event the next night until 01:30.This is obviously a long standing problem with the noise from the gym as can be seen by the multiple reviews mentioning it, what I don’t understand is the failure to rectify or acknowledge it.The general manager has not responded after being contacted, poor customer relations.Be careful of booking.Very friendly staff, good bar/restaurant.FYI decor a bit jaded, stained carpets, scuffed woodwork.Room rate was closer to £100 per night not £54 as auto added at top of review.

It was a really great hotel to stay in while playing at Swansea Hockey Club. Great location for all the restaurants in the dock area.Rooms are a wee bit tired, but only the usual scrapes and torn wallpaper.Beds comfy, bathroom clean and breakfast was good.The staff were lovely.Bar area also very good.Could not fault the hotel.See you next year with the Scottish Masters Hockey team.
