Perfect stay

Everything was perfect. Clean comfortable room and very good breakfast. Very convenient only 5 minutes from the theatre and centre of town.
paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved the Swans Nest hotel. It's very walkable to everything, yet being just slightly away from the immediate town centre made it very quiet.
Stephanie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Friendly welcome, but no acknowledgement of Platinum status - no room upgrade or welcome drinks. Hot old fashioned room, with noisy heating and road noise. Dreadful breakfast, my wife was still suffering from the effects the following morning. This place is out of the 1980's and the way they do breakfast is similar.
