    Consider exploring the nearby Adnams store for local drinks, as the hotel's bar menu may have limited stock.

    Consider requesting a room away from the street if you're sensitive to noise, especially from seagulls at night.

    breakfast options
    room organization
    bathroom space

    Generous breakfast options.

    I expected better organization in the room. The space was poorly arranged, making it difficult to find a comfortable spot to sit. the bathroom lacked adequate space for personal items, which was quite frustrating.

    We had a delightful stay in a Double Room at The Swan Hotel. The bed was incredibly comfy, making for restful nights. The bright, airy decor felt refreshing and the complimentary breakfast was delicious, offering plenty of options. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home.

    Some seating in common areas was a bit uncomfortable.

    The complimentary bottle of 'Top Notch' gin was a delightful touch for our cozy balcony evenings.

    We experienced persistent plumbing noise in the bathroom that disrupted our sleep during the night.

    Couple's nice stay, just watch the food

    The staff were super friendly, one even offered to help us carry our bags to our room, which made us feel really welcome. Plus, we enjoyed a complimentary upgraded room that was just perfect for a cozy night in.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but still acceptable given the overall experience.

    complimentary gin
    beautiful decor
    high-quality food
    indifferent receptionist
    slow breakfast service
    high prices

    We enjoyed a lovely weekend in a Double Room with Garden View. The room had a cozy feel, beautifully decorated with all the necessary amenities. The complimentary bottle of gin was a delightful surprise, perfect for our relaxing evening in. Breakfast was excellent on our first morning, with high-quality food and attentive service. Unfortunately, the breakfast on our departure day didn’t meet the same standard. the service was slow, and the eggs weren’t warm. The tap room prices felt steep compared to the delicious meals served in the restaurant. One receptionist stood out negatively. she was indifferent and seemed uninterested in our questions at checkout. The location of the hotel was fantastic, just a short walk to the seafront. it was a mixed experience but the positives outweighed the negatives.

    nautical-themed decor
    welcoming staff
    communal areas
    seating comfort
    common areas

    The Swan's airy, nautical-themed decor feels refreshing, like a gentle sea breeze, making the spaces accessible and pleasant for leisurely strolls. The welcoming staff and delightful communal areas added to the charm of my stay.

    More comfortable seating in common areas would be great.
