8/10 Good
"The rooms were delightful but let down a bit by a few mix ups in dinner service. They were overly full when we arrived so nowhere to sit other than our room as it was chilly outside. That in itself was ok as the room was lovely - but it did mean we didn’t make as much of the whole place. The tavern next door was also closed until 6 - which had it also been open would have eased the crowding."

The White Swan Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Really enjoyed our stay at The White Swan - we had a beautiful room, very comfy bed, a walk-in dresser area and a lovely bathroom that was very tidy and had been modernised in a way that still felt in-keeping with the age of the room itself. Breakfast was lovely, with a small area to help yourself to juice, toast, pastries, fruit and yoghurt, and then hot breakfasts and hot drinks on order. A really pleasant set-up, and the breakfast staff were really helpful and friendly. The staff in the hotel were well presented and really pleasant at all times, which made such a difference to our stay. The pub restaurant downstairs is nice and cozy, and isn’t too rowdy or noisy once you’re back in your room. We didn’t eat here on either of our evenings but in future we will. It’s also really well located, just a short walk to restaurants and shops, Shakespeare’s House, the river and the theatres. There was also a nice little market right over the road for the first two days of our stay, which was really nice. Really recommend!"
