Delta Hotels by Marriott Swansea

10/10 Excellent

"One night stay that was excellent. Helpful and professional check in staff, Very clean room and amenities. I used the gym and that was in very good condition. My only comment would be that as a solo female traveller I was offered a table on the bar at breakfast 'as it was quieter'. I don't think it was deliberately meant in any way to be segregative but it didn't feel comfortable being asked. Of course I declined. Otherwise great stay as always."
