It is spread over two Victorian houses which retain their original features. New owners took over the hotel in January 2006 and are completely refurbishing all bedrooms. The Abbey Hotel has 26 bedrooms ranging from a single room to large family rooms en-suite, all rooms have televisions and hospitality trays. Included in the room rate is a traditional English breakfast or a choice of cereals. Fax Facilities are available and wireless internet access is available from certain rooms. Interesting Fact: Richard Burton attended elocution lessons in the lounge of No 151. Yes Way!

Easy to walk to (granted you can…read moretake a very cheap cab ride there), i felt very secure on the premise, my bed was super cozy and comfortable, the decor was absolutely adorable, the breakfast bar was lovely, and the hotel staff were VERY nice! I did have a hard time calling them when i first arrived, my cell phone couldnt connect, i eventually had to ask someone else to use their phone. I think it has something to do with the area code. but once I made contact it was smooth sailing from there! I loved the mirrors with the quotes on them, the chandeliers and the paintings. I had room 12 which was nice and tucked away so I had all the privacy i wanted. The bathroom was perfect and private. They had a sheet of useful information in my room, including cab estimates, restaurants, pubs, and hotel information. Its so close to city center which was amazing!! After spending a lot of the time at the Castle and the city center, i came back to relax and turn on the tv. Only to find out there was another rugby match! So I headed to a recommended pub just down the street where I met some GREAT people. The only downfall is that i couldnt spend more time at this Hotel and in Cardiff!! I will be back to the Abbey Hotel!!

I visited The Hood Arms last June with a large group of people. We had been working in the area for…read moreseveral days and lunch usually consisted of anything we bought from the grocery. For our last day in the area we made reservations to have real food for lunch in the atmosphere of a 17th century inn. After days of eating lunch while being rained on The Hood Arms was a nice change. We had a reservation so we didn't have to wait to be seated, plus we arrived early so we were the first people there. The word cozy perfectly describes the inn. If I lived in the area I would love sitting in the pub and having a beer. The main dining room of the inn had beautiful wood beams and a large brick fireplace. The most memorable thing about the inn was the surprise in the restroom. Ha ... that's probably something that a visitor doesn't want to hear but trust me, unless you're an easily offended American ... which I'm not, then you'll get a kick out of some classic British humor. Think Benny Hill type humor ... painted on the toilet seats! Please see the attached pictures to see what I mean. Too funny! The lunch menu consisted of classic British food. Or at least what I consider classic. I'm a very picky eater but I was able to find something on the menu! That doesn't always happen by the way. I ordered the Ham and Eggs. I enjoyed it. I'm not sure what others had but I know that there were a lot of clean plates. As we were a large group and it was lunchtime, our first table had finished eating by the time the last table had just received their food. But then again, it doesn't take long to realize that mealtime is not a rushed affair in the UK. So we took advantage of the warmth inside the inn while the others finished their meal. I wish I could say that I knew the prices, but since I wasn't the one paying I'm not really sure. I think the prices were really reasonable. If you're in Somerset I definitely suggest checking it out!

The interior has been totally refreshed and looks amazing, really modern, trendy and stylish. It opens Sun- Thur 9am - midnight and Fri/Sat 9am - 1am.

The large tv screens add to the atmosphere and i imagine that the bar is pretty full on match days! This is a really good pub for those in Minehead, it is really close to the high street and to butlins and will do incredibly well in the main tourist time.

Well having stayed here for 12 nights I can say that yes premier inns are "budget" priced but that…read moreis only if you book a loooong time in advance. However they do provide what you need clean and secure rooms with a restaurant/bar which does the trick. The hotel is part of a new development in the area, if I had a bug bear it was the fact that you have to pay to park everywhere in the 'Waterfront' area. This will definitely add to the cost of your stay at this Premier Inn. The rooms are not the biggest but can accommodate a family of four easily as the sofa bed folds out and there is part of the bed which also slides out if needed. Whilst I was here for business reasons it is very much a family hotel. I say this as most of the people I saw stay here over the period of time I was here were families. Their is a small Tesco's attached to the hotel which is handy if you run out of anything. Inside the bar area of the hotel is a chas machine which charges you for the privilage of getting your money out. Do Not Use It. The Tesco's has a free cash machine in its wall so use that instead. The staff at the hotel are the main reason why I have gone with 4 stars. Every single member of staff I interacted with were very helpful and personable. They were more than happy to share a joke whilst busy at work but always willing to help with any problem/issue you might have. The hotel only falls down slightly if you want to charge stuff to your room which I know is not the usual practice for the Premier Inn brand but it does make thigns easier if you can do this. They have the facility to do it however it somehow gets confused between the hotel reception and the bar. /resturant, however the reception staff were more than willing to go and explain it to the bar/resturant staff what should be happening. The only issue with my room was the fact that whilst i had a view of the water area it also backed over where Tesco's delivers coming in the morning and also where the hotel empty their bottles each morning/afternoon, so it can be a bit noisy at times if you are in the hotel for a reason other than sleeping. All in all if you need a hotel in the Swansea Waterfront area this is a good one. I know their is a Marriot in the harbour area which undoubtedly would see itself as better but if you want to keep control of how much you spend on your hotel accommodation then this is definitely the place. It is a ten minute stroll to the main strip if you are here for a 'lively time' then that is the place to go. there are several cafes and bars around the area which are well presented and relaxed if you want to have a meal by the water.

Well we prepaid and at around 11am looked to check in early or at least have our bags checked to…read moresight see? You would have thought we were the devil incarnate. It was a female "host". My wife and I hesitated to even come back at check in time. But we did and the young lady was gone and the two men were awesome checking us in. The other issue was parking. You're on your own. So we off and on parked via the private service that owns the lot throughout the two or three nights we were there. We thought we were good other than Miss Mood at check in. Yesterday (2+ weeks later), we got notice from the parking lot authority that we weren't parked between the lines in our spot. Mind you, no ticket on windshield or any notice on car in order to rectify. So being from another country 5,000 miles away we have zero recourse. There are no lines and nothing marked! Total scam.

My parents stayed at Morgans in the first six months of it opening and they felt like royalty from the time they checked in, turn down service was unobtrusive and the room was beautiful. We had a fantastic meal on that occasion, so a real 5 star experience in total. Unfortunately on my own stay in Morgans last year(due to an emergency household disaster) and my parent's next stay, only 6 months ago that 5 star experience was not repeated. The rooms are in need of some care and attention and service has deteriorated, not to a low level but it no longer has that special feel about it. The food served in the restaurant has also deteriorated, nice but no longer special and breakfast was sadly lacking, my mother's scrambled egg was lukewarm and portions on the small side. I hope Morgans can regain it's original 5 star experience but from friends' experience too, my family is not the only one to see the deterioration.
