Amazing stay !!
The white swan team were amazing. I went with a fairly large group for a wedding and they were super helpful and accommodating of all our different needs. Couldn't recommend them enough. Just slight issues with the parking situation but other than that great stay with a great team.

Outdated, unclean and not worth it.
Outdated decor ajd building work going on at back of hotel. Im disabled and have spinal problems. The mattress and bed amd mattress was made in 1996 and never changed very uncomfortble and no springs in mattress. Smell of fresh paint to cover the already outdated decor. Not very clean room amd numerous marks and burn marks in bath and wall etc. Approached reception to ask to move room and explained my health issues only to be told no other rooms and cannot supply a different mattress. This was met with "im sorry" said in a very un-empathic and unsincere way. Totally disgusted with this hotel as we where there on business for 4 nights. Best thing about this trip was leaving. Very overpriced especially for 4 night with no comfort or sleep. If you can find another hotel such as premier inn i would strongly advise to book that insted.

Great “no frills” budget hotel in virtually the centre of Halifax - good size room, comfy bed. Great breakfast with friendly service. Hotel clean although a little dated in places. Many bars and restaurants very close by on foot. “”Bad”” stuff - no bar in the hotel, no parking. Also a little noisy - Halifax has security barriers in the town centre with loud audible warnings - these can be heard in the room with the window open. I shall always remember this visit when I hear “Caution bollards moving” !! But ok with the window closed ! Lots of cheap parking in the area (free from 6 pm to 8 am) around the Minster. And parking fees are around 50p per hour. Good value for money for a simple “Bed and breakfast” between meetings with the added benefit of being pretty much in the town centre for an explore. Will stay again.

Super to stay in Halifax
The White Swan is a characterful and charming hotel. The service was exceptionally warm and friendly from everyone on reception to the waitress at breakfast. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious (huge choice of food) The rooms were clean, spacious, quiet and comfortable. My daughter and I had a lovely stay and would definitely return

Good value, hot water takes an age to come out the shower but it does eventually. While we were there the wifi and TV we’re out of order but that’s not normal.
