I had a comfortable bright room with excellent tea and coffee-making equipment. The hotel is of a good standard with a large colourful restaurant with a very good cooked-breakfast menu. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel occupies a very good position on the sea-front at Mumbles and is a good starting point to embark on the beautiful Welsh coastal path.

The hotel was doing its best to be first rate .. the staff were helpful.. beds were huge but too soft (but that s me ) The sea view room was ok .. had a terrace adjacent to the main hotel s terrace so was not private and was glad it rained or I can imagine it could be noisy.. was it worth the £217.room only ..I am afraid not …

Nicely decorated and furnished rooms, clean with sea view. Balcony had not been cleaned with evidence of 12 or more cigarrette butts in the floor. Food at breakfast was good but service was slow - not enough staff!

Room 8 is amazing. Stayed twice now, this time for some R&R after being poorly. The housekeeping staff were amazing and very respectful of my do not disturb dog! They called in the afternoon to see if i needed replenishments etc. The view is amazing from the private balcony, and very therapeutic. The shower is great, as are the products provided. The room was really hot, but fans were provided. Not eaten here, but looks lovely. Highly recommended. Choose a sea view if you can

This property is update, well thought out and staff could not be better. From check in to support (I accidentally threw my keys in with the trash) staff went out of their way to help. The room is simple yet with all the feel of an upscale boutique hotel. I will stay at oyster house again, happily.

Good location. Room was clean and comfortable Parking was a nightmare and expensive. Had to pay for parking twice in a 24hr period @ £14 per 12 hours. Our meal in restaurant wasn’t that great. Lovely walk along promanade.

The hotel has been recently redecorated. Has a good reputation. Staff were friendly and helpful. Parking is limited to the Pay as you go car parks unless you can find a rare parking space on the road outside. Overlooks the sea from the back. Our room overlooked the road on the opposite side of the hotel but this wasn’t an issue for us as it was quiet.

A lovely hotel in The Mumbles
A lovely small hotel located just off a pedestrianised area on The Mumbles. The hotel itself was beautifully furnished and maintained to a very good standard. The hotel room was modern and had everything you needed for a stay. Staff were very helpful and the restaurant looked fabulous but it wasn’t serving food the night we were there, which was a shame. There were plenty of food places nearby though. The only downside, and totally out of the hotels control, was the cost of parking. The hotel has no parking for guests but there is a pay and display a short walk away which is quite pricey for a nights stay. We paid £22 for a nights parking.

Really comfortable but needs better communication
We really enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and very comfortable. The hotel is close to places to visit and eat. The bathroom was great. The sheep was an added benefit, which we really liked. The only issue we had was the communication. The night before our stay, there was a mistake with the invoice. I couldn't get through to anyone and left 2 messages, but no one replied or phoned back. Also, i asked for soya/oat milk in the room, as there was a fridge with a little bottle of cows milk in the room, and this never happened. I think the hotel just needs someone to actually look at messages and emails, the hotel communication just gets lost at the bar.

Lovely hotel with fabulous location
Easy check in at restaurant. Room was fabulous with own patio but unfortunately this had not been cleaned properly from previous guests. Location of the hotel is fantastic. We didn't eat in the hotel as had already made other arrangements but the bar area looked lovely .
