We visited over the May Bank Holiday, to celebrate my father's birthday. Booked a Newmarket Package, ie racing for the day plus bed, breakfast and evening meal at the hotel. The whole trip was brillantly organised, the staff couldn't have been more helpful and informative and we had a really fabulous weekend. Parking on site, lovely little garden, bar, excellent... More

We visited Lavenham on a rainy day while on a drive to a weekend away with friends. What a charming town/village. We didn't stay at this hotel but went in for a drink. Upon entering we immediately decided to have lunch. We took this in the Airmans bar and it was very very good. The atmosphere was great, the staff... More

This is another hotel I've stayed at many times, usually on business but once or twice for a long weekend in the Winter when it's at its best. The hotel dates back a long way and has a history to match. Set in Lavenham, Suffolk, the character of the building is in keeping with the area and one can stay... More

Myself and my wife decided on a "spur of the moment" first visit to Lavenham. It was such a lovely place that we agreed we would spend the night there. We walked into The Swan expecting to find a typically English 3 star hotel pretending to be 4 star. How wrong we were. From the moment we walked through the... More

At the weekend, I was treated by my partner, to a weekend stay at the swan hotel in lavenham. From the moment we arrived to the time we left, we both had an amazing time. We stayed in room 12, which was a lovely oak beamed room with bags of character and history. I was greeted with a birthday card... More

London to Lavenham on a Friday late afternoon was a refreshingly easy journey, compared to the slog to the Cotswolds for example. Lavenham has some beautifully preserved tudor buildings, with the Swan Hotel being one of them. The hotel's accomodation dates to 1485 and you definitely know it from the weaving corridors and lopsided floors. It's not on the market... More

We stayed at The Swan for the weekend in March - it was snowing heavily when we arrived however it just added to the beauty of the village and the hotel. We stayed in a Superior room which was beautiful, however the only big downside was our room was directly above the kitchen the smell was awful and the noise... More

Really enjoyed our stay at the Swan. It was our first visit to Lavenham. In spite of the unexpected snow, we enjoyed the sights and atmosphere of this impressive and welcoming town. Our room was very spacious, with its own living room. The bed was very comfy and the bathroom well appointed. We were very impressed that the receptionist took... More

Just home from another lovely, relaxing visit. We took advantage of the Spring into Suffolk offer and had great three night stay, fantastic food, atmosphere and staff. Nothing was too much trouble. We were in room five, a huge room with a nice seating area and more than enough space for the travel cot the hotel had provided. A relative... More
