5 Stars for Comfort
The Swan hotel is the perfect little get away for that homey type of feeling. Everything was of the best quality and comfort across the board was clearly on top of their list. All staff were eager to help and very welcoming. Our room was their standard but felt more like a junior suite. The food was delicious. The spa was perfect. 5 stars from me across the board.

We were a bit disappointed with the bar/outside service. We are sure the revenue of the hotel would improve if a member of a member of staff came out to the outside areas/bar to see if you would like anything else rather than you having to go inside and stand at the bar - often unmanned- for another order. See how the Greyhound organise themselves with customer service

A beautiful historic hotel
We have stayed at the Swan before and it is beautiful . This historic hotel is very well maintained and atmospheric. The staff are lovely and very friendly and the food in the restaurant is delicious and very well presented. Our room (no. 6) was spacious and very comfortable, although the bathroom was a bit challenging . We will definitely be back to Kavengam and the Swan .

Beautiful hotel
Wonderful hotel, such a beautiful old building. Food was delicious, we ate in the brasserie and had breakfast each morning in the gallery restaurant. The staff were spot on, very helpful and attentive. Lavenham itself is a very picturesque village, you feel you have been transported back to another era. Would definitely stay again.

Disappointing stay
The staff were execellent .The room very cosy for these price. The dinner in the dining room lacked atmosphere. My husband requested a rare as can be burger but was delivered dried and well over cooked . The downstairs lounge had moths flying around and we believe there must be a clothes moth infestation. The quality of the place has deteriorated since our last stay .

Lovely stay at The Swan
Had a great stay at the Swan. Friendly, helpful staff. Some really good food in hotel restaurant. First time using the small spa which was nice. Room a bit small, but this is a very, very old building so this has to be expected unless going for a higher grade room. Bathroom nice but bath a bit small for a soak, again probably constrained by the buildings size. Lovely area for a chilled, relaxed visit with a charming village and beautiful Church. Lots of charming tea houses and interesting pubs to walk to.

We had a wonderful Christmas break with the whole family celebrating my mother-in-laws 80th birthday. Beautiful hotel with lovely facilities, including a relaxing spa. The Swan team couldn’t have been lovelier or more helpful and the restaurant and food was first class. Lavenham was gorgeous. Overall a very memorable stay for everyone. Will definitely be back.
