Many of the most coveted yet most expensive hotels are found in Brunswick, Swansea city centre. Not only is its location ideal for sightseeing, but it is also ideal for shopping, dining, and nightlife.
While Brunswick is always lively, both day and night, the neighbouring Maritime Quarter on Swansea Bay offers a more relaxed evening out. The quarter is lined with some of the UK’s most popular bars and restaurants as well as quirkier alternatives too.
Families might prefer to stay in the seaside strip, The Mumbles, as it is all about wholesome entertainment. From amusements to castle tours and ice cream shops, the Victorian pier has the perfect recipe for family fun.
Those who prefer to lay on the beach over shopping in the city or playing on the pier should head to Port Talbot. Situated on the opposite side of Swansea Bay, it is far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet close enough to pop in whenever you feel called to.
Alternatively, stay in one of the cute cottages or rustic farmhouses that dot the countryside surrounding Swansea to enjoy long walks, slow mornings, and exceptional natural scenery.
