As frequent visitors to Port Talbot we decided to try the Grand. We were pleasantly surprised by the standard of the rooms and the value for money food. We have stayed there twice now and see no reason not to use it in the future. Although we have not tried the Italian restaurant next door we have heard good reports... More

The room my wife and I were allocated was definitely in need of refurbishment. Whilst the bedding was clean, the carpet was stained, furniture old and tatty and the bathroom was carpeted; very unhygienic. The lift groaned it's way up to my floor and when the lift door opened, a dark and dismal landing was presented. The rooms cost an... More

Horrible place. Dirty bedroom and filthy bathroom with mold around the bath. Photos of the sea on the website but no sea on site! Black & white photo of the bedrooms on the website to hide the horror. It's 2013, how dear you charging anyone for a room like that? Horrible smell of cigarette and booze. Felt like we were... More

The only thing holding me back from a 4 was mold in the bathroom tiles. Otherwise what a great deal to spend 35 pounds for a room as nice as a Holiday Inn Express with a building that has 19th century charm, generously wide hallways and even a mansion-like staircase with huge stained glass windows! You must stay here if... More

Excellent food very well presented and served with a smile. Smart restaurant or bar area if you prefer. Car park at rear. Drinks reasonable price. What more could you ask for. If you go at lunchtime order from the "2 for £12 menu", you wont be disappointed.

For £35 per night, you can't really grumble too much! The room was basic but clean, very hot though! It's a seemingly popular pub/restaurant, so the noise from the bar was very loud and would disturb light sleepers until the bar closed. The staff were very friendly, helpful and I have no complaints. The door staff being present on a... More

The room was ok, if a bit shabby. Very basic. Food and drink were fine. Rather noisey in thecbar but it was Friday night. It was later that the nightmare started. Some poeple started banging their doors from around 1am to 3am. Then the fire alarms started going off repeatedly at 5. No one could tell me what was wrong,... More
