The wonderful staff and warm welcome for us and our dogs. We had an amazing stay, delicious food and great service. The room was stunning, extremely comfortable, clean and spacious. Lovely bed and a great nights sleep. Gorgeous little treats and toys for our dogs. It was all very special, thank you so much! We will definitely book again. Highly recommend this beautiful hotel!

This is a beautiful hotel , with so many original features . It was clean and the staff were amazing . Especially Julia on reception , Pedro and Junior in the Gallery restaurant , which serves Michelin quality dishes . This is our go to place whenever we are visiting Lavenham .
Friendly & efficient staff old world charm easy access for my disabled husband attractive building wonderful food right in centre of village which had interesting buildings and shops ...would definitely recommend The Swan and would stay there again.
Beautiful hotel and facilities, room over looked the garden and it was really comfortable and clean - nice and quiet too . We dined at the swan too , very attentive and friendly staff .
Wonderful hotel, such a beautiful old building. Food was delicious, we ate in the brasserie and had breakfast each morning in the gallery restaurant. The staff were spot on, very helpful and attentive. Lavenham itself is a very picturesque village, you feel you have been transported back to another era. Would definitely stay again.
Great location, very friendly and helpful staff, can’t rate them highly enough. The hotel is very well kept and nicely finished. The food is amazing. Rooms are very comfortable and have everything you need. Only minor comment is Bathroom decor could do with a refresh but overall a very nice stay and would highly recommend a visit.
We have stayed at the Swan before and it is beautiful . This historic hotel is very well maintained and atmospheric. The staff are lovely and very friendly and the food in the restaurant is delicious and very well presented. Our room (no. 6) was spacious and very comfortable, although the bathroom was a bit challenging . We will definitely be back to Kavengam and the Swan .
We had a wonderful Christmas break with the whole family celebrating my mother-in-laws 80th birthday. Beautiful hotel with lovely facilities, including a relaxing spa. The Swan team couldn’t have been lovelier or more helpful and the restaurant and food was first class. Lavenham was gorgeous. Overall a very memorable stay for everyone. Will definitely be back.
We had three double rooms that were lovely. My only criticism is one of the rooms only had a bath with a hand held shower head. The other two rooms had a bath and shower. The staff were exemplary and so attentive.
It was a surprise for my husband 50th birthday, the staff were all very friendly, the bonus bit was having spa onsite , we had dinner in the evening the service was incredible the staff very friendly.
The Swan hotel is the perfect little get away for that homey type of feeling. Everything was of the best quality and comfort across the board was clearly on top of their list. All staff were eager to help and very welcoming. Our room was their standard but felt more like a junior suite. The food was delicious. The spa was perfect. 5 stars from me across the board.
