Staff are fantastic- extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast a little chaotic. If you’re not early you can be waiting 45mins for food and they ran out of eggs during our stay. Also almost all of our group of 16 had to have tepid or cold showers which was also disappointing. That said we enjoyed our stay and we’d go back.

Thumbs up.

The hotel was lovely and the room we stayed in had a very comfy bed, tea and coffee facilities and a river view. The food was very nice although a little on the pricey side. I was a bit disappointed that the picture of the pool on the website which went outside was only accessible via the spa though. Breakfast was a little chaotic and took us sometime to get our breakfast ordered. Overall this was a great one night stay.

Great location, decent food and good bed. Dissapointed charged an extra £65 for a dog, when selected a pet friendly room via expedia. Customer service was very poor and one staff members attitude was awful. Expected better from a hotel such as the swan. Wont stay again, very stressful experience checking in, not relaxing as it should be.

5 stars*** couldn't fault a thing

Couldn't fault a thing. Friendly staff, comfortable rooms with everything you need, hair dryer, iron (and board), tea making facilities, etc.. Restaurant and breakfast food all amazing, cater for all dietary requirements with a varied range. Great facilities, we enjoyed the pool/sauna/steam room, gym and playing pool. Can't rate the spa as unfortunately we were too late making bookings but goes to show how good it must be, snooze you lose, lol, but will definitely be booking again. Nothing was too much for the staff who were all friendly and helpful. Location/area was great, plenty of parking. Great location for visiting surrounding areas, walks attractions, etc. Highly recommend.
