The Swansea Hotel

Stayed overnight passing through to Tamworth. Rooms were very clean, had a T.V, Air Conditioning, fan. Very basic, but good value for $89 a night. It is a shared communal bathroom, but that was fine. I also ate down stairs at the bistro, food was good too. Staff service lovely. Would definitely stay again.

Went to the restaurant and had a meal like a top class restaurant would serve. Mustard chicken, rump steak and calamari and salad. The four of us loved our meal and let the chef know how good it was.

Stayed here overnight and enjoyed a chicken shnitty and a couple of beers after a hike up from Terrigal. Aidan was very patient with me through some complications with the booking and Bill's charismatic and gregarious persona made me feel very welcome right away.

The room was more than adequate, the service from all staff excellent and the communal kitchen upstairs was very spacious.

Only issues are that the fan didn't work in my room (but there was air-con which was fancy) and the shower head needs its seals replaced.

Overall a very pleasant experience and would recommend.

The t-bone steak that I had tonight, was so tender and delicious with roasted potatoes and asparagus. Five star ⭐ to staff and to the Chef.

Had $15 lunch special chicken schnitzel, chips and salad. Beautiful big meal. Breast chicken in the schnitzel. Great service and excellent food. I highly recommend the Swansea Hotel.

Good meals, nice atmosphere, friendly staff, good value.

On the way home from a wedding at Port Stephens came down thrust the castle had a waygu burger lovely feed and will call in again 🍻

There's usually a dog at the door who likes pats. Also I won like 8 bucks on the dogs here. Great place if you like dogs.

Atmosphere was good. Food was really nice. Staff behind the bar where lovely. Really enjoyed it :)

Only quick stop. Pleasant staff friendly

Staff were fantastic. Alexander Charley attended to our large group. Nothing was too much trouble.
Shame there aren’t more like him.
Bistro cooks were great.
Food was lovely and reasonably priced.
Would come back here.
Very clean and everything well presented.

Food is always good the beer is always cold.

Great meals at reasonable prices...right down to the coffee. The Bar staff and the restaurant staff are always very friendly and helpful. Great place for a girls day out.

Food was great value I'd definitely be back

Great simple rooms and clean bathrooms. Staff were accommodating.

Was some loud live music one night, but was respectfully stopped at 11.30pm, leaving plenty of time for sleep.

Stayed on the weekend. Fantastic room, it was Clean and Bathroom was huuuuuggggeeee!!! Staff were very Friendly. Food was great. Only down fall is car parking was around the back, its not a far walk but when you have luggage and leave early. But overall highly recommend.

Well run pub. . The food is above average & tasty
The beer is reasonably priced. They told me the rooms are renovated, have not tried yet? ... working in the area occasionally and hard to find accommodation.
Coles supermarket is next door , very convenient

Great little spot to stay the night.
Has everything you need, tv, aircon, comfy beds.
Has a little kitchen (backpacker style) with big fridge and some areas to cook, also has a shared lounge area and a small deck area.
Swansea was a great little spot near beautiful clear water.
We didn't eat here. Food was a bit too expensive for what we wanted to pay.

The steak was cooked to perfection, salad was crisp and delicious, and chips were done to my taste. In addition, staff are always friendly and professional. Great place to stop for dinner and drink or two.
