Work has started on the construction of a 16 bedroom boutique hotel at Oyster Wharf, Mumbles.

Nextcolour Developments Limited is behind the latest development which is expected to open in 2021. With a £2 million investment from the Development Bank of Wales through funding from the Wales Tourism Investment Fund and the backing of Visit Wales, the 16 bedroom hotel has been designed by Lawray Architects and Holly Keeling Interiors, who previously worked on The Watergate Hotel in Cornwall. South Wales based Bridgeport 360 are the appointed contractors.

Positioned as part of the successful Oyster Wharf development that opened in 2016, the new hotel is expected to create 30 new jobs and has been pre-let for 25 years to the City Pub Group. The Group currently has a portfolio of 47 pubs across England and Wales including Chapel 1887 and the Pontcanna Inn in Cardiff.
