Overall Ratings & Reviews The Dolphin SA1 Hotel

It was fair hotel . Room was too hot only issue

Good cheap hotel

If you’re ever in Swansea visit, PLEASE DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. They charge you an additional £100 security deposit. You’re better off staying at the premier inn down the road

The location was ffwcin spot cont 👍

Staff were friendly efficient . Hotel was easy to locate. The room was clean & tidy. Just a bit to warm. Otherwise good

1 night business stay over

I would go there again

Single rooms are a good saving for a coach driver waiting over a weekend. The room had everything I needed & a nice view. Not flashy, but well maintained. The only downsides were that the TV required paying an outside provider, however with excellent WiFi, I just used U-Tube & BBC Sounds on my mobile phone. Also the cup was a bit small for my requirements.

It was accessible to the town

City centre early start with city cleaning

Good stuff!

The hotel requires a £150 deposit! In cash you get it a checkout once the room hss been checked, use a credit card and it will be refunded within 3- 5 days! Totally unacceptable I am not a room wrecker and it is not Falaraki! Also I paid extra for a Superior room.not sure what was superior about it - would not stay again.

It was a really nice place no compaints clean cheap bar downstairs didntbtry the food was just a sleep over

My first stay was very impressive and reasonably quiet considering the city centre location in the middle of swanseas night life. Everything you need within easy walking distance. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. I was only there for one night playing in a weekend sporting competion. I deal for a covenient place to get your head down, nothing fancy it is what is. Highly recommended.

I have never seen such a small single bed in my life not only was extremely uncomfortable but trying to lie down on it was like trying to lie on a rope. My arms and shoulders had nothing to rest on as the bed was so narrow.

Pretty basic hotel, dated decor, but still clean and perfectly pleasant. I stayed on a Monday night so was quite quiet, but I wonder if it would be that quiet in other days.

Very nice people running hotel, helpful & kind.

Although the hotel was satisfactory, I was somewhat disappointed with the £100 deposit. While I understand that such deposits are customary, it would have been beneficial if the hotel had explicitly indicated that contactless payment was not an option. The only payment methods available were chip and pin or card number. Fortunately, I had my card number readily available, as I would have been unable to check in without it. In 2024, it is perplexing that contactless payment is not a standard feature.

Decent hotel with very friendly staff. Cheap and affordable if you need somewhere to stay for the night

I stayed due to travel disruption. Very convenient for the station, friendly and helpful receptionist, clean and comfortable room with all I needed for the night.
