A mixed review - great location and lovely staff. Arrived to a twin room rather than a double as booked but reception got this sorted very quickly. There was a Christmas party so we were not able to have dinner in the hotel Olympia suite which was part of the reason we booked the hotel so disappointing. We were also not able to have breakfast at the time we wanted due to the large party only giving the options of 8:30am or 10am which was a shame. The room itself was nice, very basic but was fine for one night. The bathroom was basic however the bath and shower were not clean thankfully only there for one night so avoided having a shower due to the cleanliness issue. Duvet was very heavy meaning it was very hot overnight so neither of us had a good night sleep. Such a shame about the negatives as it was such a good location and the staff were very pleasant

Another lovely stay at the White Swan. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good in the Olympic room which is a remarkable venue from the Titanic's sister ship.

The room was old and a bit dated. Clean but with old stains in the sink and mismatched devans etc. The room was quiet and the bed comfy. The bathroom was very small but functional. There should be a warning sign over the hot water tap as it was actually scalding hot. Breakfast was fine but the cooked selection cold and the eggs rubbery.

We were in room 7 which was in the adjacent wing of the Hotel. Unfortunately we were unable to park in the Hotel's car park as it was full, but managed to park in the free car park located behind the hotel.

Room was clean enough. Shower was ok. Shower curtain had stain on it though, ugggh😕🚿. Would have preferred separate shower cubicle. Mother in laws room appeared to have a faulty radiator. Pretty basic room with no stand out features. It was ok for the price.

Excellent stay, great staff, super ambience

Staff - really friendly and helpful. Breakfast - first class, beautifully served in fantastic and well maintained surroundings. Parking - just fine. Trivial minor problems which doubtless would have been fixed if we'd stayed more than one night - door lock floppy, one bedside light not working as hadn't been plugged in under the (immovable) bed, which was, incidentally, extremely comfortable. The dining room, with related photos in the corridors, was truly memorable.
