Lovely hotel in the centre of town with own free car park. The room was well appointed with extra treats on the hospitality front. Lovely toiletries and towels in the bathroom. Breakfast good and promptly served. A nice stay and excellent value for the deal that we secured. Thank you.

We stayed 2 nights on a TZoo deal with B+B and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The old and historic hotel has been renovated to a high standard and most of the staff were very welcoming. In particular, Becca who was serving in the restaurant was excellent.

We arrived late to our dinner bed and breakfast and had been in contact almost daily by email by the hotel to arrange dinner times etc. unfortunately we had a minor medical situation which required a visit to A &E in Stafford and liased with management regarding our late arrival. Christopher couldn’t be more helpful, he changed our dinner booking without a problem. After dinner he delivered a huge bag of ice wrapped in a bag and clingfilm for icing the injured ankle which was above and beyond his remit . The food I. The restaurant was very good and the breakfast fantastic . Will recommend if visiting the centre of Stafford . The car park is a bit tricky to find be aware .

Enjoyed the stay, staff very friendly, room was spacious and comfortable. The deal we booked was excellent value which included a 3 course meal each, the duck I had melted in the mouth. Breakfast was pretty impressive too!

First ever visit to Stafford, for a Sunday workshop with Mister Finch Textiles, who had recommended The Swan Hotel. Booked directly via hotel website, where there was a Winter Offer package which included breakfast. Booked a single room which on arrival/Check-In had been upgraded to a 'Classic Double'. Room, Sunday evening Dinner (Mother's Day so restaurant had been very busy all day) and Monday breakfast were all excellent. A very favourable introduction to Stafford!

Stayed with the TravelZoo offer for two nights so got a good price. Room was a good size but with a pokey window overlooking roofs. Bathroom okay but far too hot and no window. Room got hot too but luckily there was a fan which was a good addition. Also an iron and ironing board which were useful. Walls thin and had noisy neighbours, which didn't help with sleeping. Breakfast plentiful and good choice of hot food, served freshly made to order. Bathroom wasn't cleaned so a big X for that.

This is the fourth time we’ve stayed here and it’s always lovely. The staff are always friendly, the rooms are clean and the breakfast is really good. Jenny, Lewis, Callum and Carla on the Night Shift were super accommodating, as was Amberle on breakfast. We’ll definitely be back!

The Swan is a wonderful place to stay. The staff are superb, as is the food, especially for vegetarians and vegans. It's incredible dog friendly. It's always a joy to stay there, The location is easy to get to and a great starting point for a trip.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was great, dog friendly with separate area for dining, dog bed and bowl in the room. With on site free carpark in the city centre. Our room was a bit corporate but very clear and plenty of space
