Airport Guide

Travelers looking to reach Castle have several options, though most require travel from neighboring regions. Cardiff Airport (CWL) is the most practical gateway, serving as an international and domestic hub for the region with rapid rail and bus connections to the city center. For those arriving in England, Birmingham Airport (BHX) offers extensive international connectivity but requires a longer rail journey or coach transfer. Gloucestershire Airport (GLO) primarily handles general aviation and smaller aircraft, providing a quieter, though less connected, arrival experience compared to the major hubs. Bournemouth Airport (BOH) and Cornwall Airport (NQY) are located significantly further away in neighboring regions, making them better suited for travelers already planning to visit those specific areas before heading to Castle. Choosing the right airport often comes down to balancing ticket prices against the time and cost of ground transport. While Cardiff is the clear winner for convenience, international visitors may find the flight options and frequency at Birmingham more appealing despite the additional transit time.

All staff members were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a lovely position right by the beach and car parking is very reasonable at £5 per night.
Unfortunately the shower in our en-suite was unusable as the water was permanently boiling hot. The temperature would not turn down. This should have been noted by the cleaning staff before we checked in. Reception did give us a partial refund but it was very inconvenient.
I would stay again due to the position of the hotel but would check the shower before accepting the room another time.FromUS$131

1. The hotel's wifi is to collect money... You can only use half an hour of wifi every 24 hours, and use your own traffic for two days here. 2. Do not provide any toiletries (toothbrush / toothpaste / comb / shower cap / slippers, etc.) 3. The sound insulation effect is not good. In the middle of the night, someone walks through the door and laughs loudly. The sound insulation of the window is not good. 4. The front desk is very small and often absent?FromUS$77

We booked this small blue building, close to the bar street, rich restaurants, a direct road from the train station can be walked for ten minutes. Press the walkie-talkie on the small door to the hotel on the side to register. The front desk enthusiastically asked if you want to live here, because breakfast is also here. After decisive replacement, the more amazing room, the retro decoration, should be the old castle renovation, very large and comfortable, the breakfast room is also super beautiful, the taste is great. What I especially like is that a boy named mike just joined the job to help me with my enthusiastic luggage, really too enthusiastic. The only bad thing is that we returned to the hotel late, because the place we went was so difficult to call the car, and we had called to explain. As a result, everything was pulled out of the room as soon as I came back.FromUS$153

Very handy for Swansea city centre - a short walk to our concert in the arena and pubs, restaurants and clubs.

But bed was really comfortable and the shower was good.
Very friendly and helpful staff who responded immediately when we had trouble with our key card on arrival.FromUS$71
