Although I have often visited the Brangwyn Hall (within Swansea Council's 1920-1930s built Civic Centre - also known as Swansea's Guildhall), it had always been either for a Concert or a Trade Show, but in November 2017 my wife and I went there for a totally different reason; namely because our dog- and family- friendly self-catering holiday cottage had been chosen as a finalist in two categories for the Swansea Bay Tourism Awards 2017.

Apart from us walking away (at the end of the evening) with both a Winners Award plus a Highly Commended Certificate, it gave us an ideal overview of what The Brangwyn (Hall) were able to provide for functions, as well as our being able to assess both the quality etc of their food, and the efficiency and friendliness of their staff on the night, and I for one (and judging by lots of comments around us, most of those voices we could hear), were of the opinion that not only was all of the food delicious, but it all arrived on time, was cooked to perfection, was delivered (served) pleasantly and efficiently by an 'army' of waiters&waitresses, and the whole evening's event was a great success (especially for us, as we picked up two awards; "Highly Commended" for our Self Catering Holiday Accommodation, and we were the outright Winner for the new category of "Best Dog Friendly Tourism Business"! Now, that's what I call a really wonderful experience of and at the Brangwyn Hall, so very many thanks to everyone for making everything possible and enjoyable!
