This was the second time we had stayed here over the last few years. It lived up to our last visit.The staff were very helpful. Lovely room. Good food in the restaurant. The hotel has a nice atmosphere altogether, and is in a great location for local attractions.

A warm friendly welcome awaits at this centrally situated hotel. However the age layout and design of this hotel means that you have a trek to get to reception and then on to your room.The rooms are comfortable and clean but the overall feel of the hotel leaves a lot to be desired. Attention to the overall upkeep of the... More

The Swan's Nest is at the heart of the lovely town of Stratford on Avon. The location could not be better, as it lies at the very heart of the historical town and dispenses with the need for a car. The restaurant is excellent, with a French theme to everything on offer. The bar, The Bear, is populated not only... More

I like to think that I'm a discerning user of hotels and restaurants, and the general quality and services that each should provide. I've stayed at several hotels (and eaten at many restaurants) in Stratford, but was back at the Swan's Nest recently. A more demanding friend was with me for my stay (used to the best of hotels around... More

Having read various reviews good and bad, wondered what our stay would be like. We stayed 7-10.05.13 with our friends and had a very enjoyable stay. Rooms were extremely clean; staff polite and nothing was too much trouble. We tried both restaurants and the food and service was wonderful. If you wish to have a meal in the Bear it... More

Had a fabulous weekend away to celebrate my special birthday. Took our family with us - including 4 young grandchildren. The rooms were fabulous - everything you could want. The bar meals were brilliant and good choice of ales on tap - the bistro meals were fantastic and all the staff were excellent - couldn't do enough for us -... More

This hotel right at the bridge going into town center is in a perfect location, especially if you are going to a play in the RST. The rooms are a bit dated but good compared with others in the area. The French bistro at the hotel is an excellent value.

Just back from a lovely 2 night stay. The hotel was lovely, we had an executive double room and was very pleased with it. However the restaurant is not a MacDonalds and it was very disappointing partly due to the poor service and really uninspiring breakfast. Excellent location, very clean and lovely MacDonalds staff. We would like to return but... More
