Christmas stay
The Swan is a top class hotel. Nice comfortable rooms, very quiet, with very good shower over bath, spotlessly clean. Very friendly, polite and helpful staff, reception sraff excellent. Amazing to get free parking too. Our stay was cut short due to an emergency back home, but we will be back.

Great City Centre hotel
Only difficulty is the narrowness of parking on site and the limited spaces, otherwise, great service and a very hearty breakfast to set you on your way. Helpful service at reception and the breakfast service.
