Lovely hotel, lovely staff, floors were a bit creaky as wobbly but it's a old building to be expected! Nice simple room with everything you need. Was very very warm though but there was a fan provided which made it a bit better! Nice little touches with the show gels and things! Cleaning in the bathroom.was a bit poor, hairs and bit left around but sometimes it happens! Breakfast was fab too! All in all was a lovely stay and would definitely come back!

A beautiful hotel and very comfortable rooms. The staff were friendly and helpful but they don’t have anyone manning the reception desk which mean nobody ever answers the phone and you’re waiting around 10mins for someone to come and see to you at the desk which is a little frustrating. That was the only negative thing. Everything else was great

On the Main Street it was noisy but not the fault of the hotel, hotel was quiet. Free parking and very nice breakfast staff. Expensive food and bar though.

The staff at The Swan welcomed us with a smile and a joke after a long day, and made everything ok again. Our room was lovely, and the in hotel dining delicious. Would definitely visit again

This is a medieval building which has been restored beautifully, blending modern touches, whilst maintaining the hotels historical integrity. The staff were friendly and accomodating and the food was excellent. Our room was lovely and the additional touch of a bed and treats for our dog was really appreciated, something we have never experienced before.

Small bin needed at breakfast selection table for cereal packets. Access for bath mats not obvious in bathroom. Window frames need painting. And my most popular complaint after staying in hotels for over 30 years, why not offer the best available room to customer at time of check in. Point this out, ie sir/madam I'm giving you the best room available, which would be appreciated. At my check in I was given a noisy room over kitchens, which was then upgraded after i pointed this out, inconvenient after travelling over 7 hours. Save time, inconvenience, by offering your worst rooms last to customers. Your reply would be appreciated, thank you.

Loved visiting Stafford and this hotel is beautifully situated in the centre with complimentary parking for hotel guests. The parking is right behind the hotel and there is a helpful video on their website with directions. The hotel is perfect. Our double room was not massive but had everything we needed was immaculately clean and comfortable. The radio was playing when we arrived with gentle classical music, what a lovely touch. All staff were great, helpful and polite. The hotel is delightfully old fashioned without being stuffy. Breakfast was excellent perfectly cooked and great coffee always a winner. Will definitely stay here again. 5 stars ✨

Average
Stayed here before and had a nice room. This time the room was far to small for the massive bed, the cupboard that was supposed to be a wardrobe was useless, I’m 5ft 1in and my dresses were too long to hang up! The view from the window was of a fire escape and concrete. No heating in the bathroom. Don’t stay in room 104. Staff were lovely. Food was less than average. The hotel is in a great location in the centre of town. Definitely won’t be back.

Great hotel. Service really good at both check-in and breakfast. Room was really clean and breakfast (included in rate) had quality ingredients; a good selection of hot items on the menu to order, along with a smaller self-serve selection of continental.
