This must be my umpteenth review of the Swan. We checked in on a Wednesday for a birthday celebration. The room was excellent and the meal deal (steak night) was really good value and was of top quality. The serving staff were red hot in response and attention. As always the breakfast was sublime, again handled by superb staff.

I stayed for 2 weeks while on a business trip and I must say that for a small hotel, it is pretty good. The only complaint I had was that the single room is extremely small. Breakfast was great - a lot of choices and the dining room staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Rooms were always clean and the... More

Nice hotel, pleased with our four poster bedroom, nice staff, didn't eat there as wasn't to keen on menu but heard its very nice food. Only complaint I would have is on our first night it was very noisy but I think that was due to someone having few people in there room and talking very loudly!

Popped down to view some land for sale in Staffordshire and decided to stay over--so booked the Swan at the last minute. What a joy to stumble across such a well run hotel, serving great food and run by friendly, smiling staff! Clean rooms-super comfy beds-and those bathroom towels are a credit to the local Welsh supplier! Breakfast was sensational--the... More

The Swan hotel is a nice small hotel in the Stafford town centre. People are pretty nice, breakfast also very good. We also had a diner there without any negative feelings. I can only recommend the hotel.
