Beautiful stay

This hotel is beautiful, relaxing and romantic location. The hotel itself is beautifully rustic and a joy to stay in. The restaurant is a lovely place to dine in
I would recommend this to anyone

Cotswold Gem

A warm welcome set the tone for a very relaxing 3-day stay. A clean, good sized room with a half bottle of bubbles and chocolates was a pleasant arrival treat. Bibury is a small village but full of typical Cotswold charm but like most villages of its kind can get quite busy, although late autumn is relatively quiet. For walkers, the area offers some decent routes, however, be aware, a route map available at the hotel is tricky to follow even for experienced walkers. The hotel has a comfortable, spacious bar and a peaceful reading room (complete with a lovely open fire). Overall, an enjoyable stay, just a couple of comments: parking is somewhat restricted and the bedroom pillows are somewhat firm , although housekeeping may be able to swap these to some a tad softer, apparently.

Lovely hotel

This was a superb two night break. Delightful hotel in every way situated in an extremely pretty village. Excellent food and friendly helpful staff. Would totally recommend.

Very nice but no cigar!

The hotel is very nice, immaculately clean throughout and looks newly decorated. A bit irritating to be asked on check in, in our case after a tiring 3 hour drive, where and what time we want every meal during our stay. The wait for the food in the dining room is excessive, over half an hour, and the portion sizes are meagre. When we raised the waiting point we were told all food is cooked to order so takes some time. With a dining room only a quarter full this simply won't wash. Also, the menu is the same every night. We only stayed 2 nights so it wasn't really a problem but a 4 night stay would be a different case. The full English breakfast was rather overcooked and unremarkable. How do you cook scrambled eggs to be completely tasteless and the consistency of sawdust? Having said all this, we enjoyed our stay and would come again. The food side of things wants looking at.

Romantic break

Perfect location for our Cotswolds break. From our arrival till we checked out, every member of staff we encountered was very friendly and welcoming. Thank you.

Staff

The one thing that makes a hotel very good is the staff.
The staff at the swan were very friendly and helpful in all aspects would recommend this hotel to all our friends.

Thank you for an excellent experience

We received a very friendly welcome from each member of staff we encountered, starting with help to find a parking space.
Molly, general manager on duty as we arrived, noted my use of a cane and sought permission to alter the location of our room to ensure we wouldn't need to climb any stairs, much appreciated as we find them difficult.
All of the staff were friendly and seemed happy to be doing their jobs, which they had obviously been well trained to do.
The food was good and there was a nice selection of wine & draft beer.
We will definitely visit again when returning to the Cotswolds.

No review title

We would certainly like a return visit but a 2 night stay is not long enough in such an attractive area.
