After reading the reviews from various websites i didn't know what to expect. I am not one to write reviews normally but after staying at Ibis Swansea i really felt the need to write this. Being in the catering business i have reviews wrote about my company all the time and some of which can be untrue and quite damaging.... More

I chose this hotel because the group I travelled with had booked in advance to stay at the Village hotel half a mile away and the price had gone up by about 50%. From what my friends told me, the Village is an excellent hotel, good bar, good breakfast and nice rooms, my friends were raving about it, mental note... More

The thing that spoils this hotel is the communal area, that is designed more like an airport departure lounge than a hotel. The bar/reception area has large chairs, but not a comfortable kind of large - you end up sitting too far away from your companions. The dining area is separated from the bar area by a low half wall.... More

Only stayed one night as my daughter had an interview the following day. We have not stayed with IBIS before but were really impressed with the Hotal and the service and would definitely book again. Well done IBIS!!

Good value for money, clean, conveniently located. The only thing that has spoiled my stay was the birthday party going on in the room opposite to mine. But that was just me being unlucky so I will definitely come back to this hotel.

I was given a price of £41 for the night but had to pay £50+ on arrival apparently the reception made an error when I called. Having asked for a quiet room I was given a room facing the duel carriageway not quiet by any means .

The hotel was basic and a little bit too far out of town, but what it lacked on frills and location was made up for with the attitude and helpfulness of the staff together with a superb breakfast. If you want cheap and cheerful this will do for you, and the local taxis are cheap enough.

Clean, airy, modern room with comfortable bed. Although our room faced the busy A483 dual carriageway, noise was not a problem. The breakfast buffet, conveniently served from 6.30am (cold early bird breakfast from 4am), although not outstanding, was very good by budget hotel standards - reasonable variety, hot foods were still hot, staff friendly and attentive. Location perhaps not ideal... More

We were in Swansea for the football so stayed here on a Saturday night. On arrival we were greeted by a friendly receptionist and were able to check-in early at 11am. Check-in was quick and easy. The room was simply furnished in 'funky' Ibis style, really clean and functional. Comfortable beds and we even had a sea view (albeit with... More
