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 .

We stayed for 2 nights, whilst the room was very nice the bed was poorly made (quilt hanging out of the quilt cover). The bathroom extraction was almost non existent, it got extremely steamy after the shower was run. Also, I reported the fact that there is no shower cubicle, just a shower attachment over the bath with no shower curtain ! With even very careful handling this ultimately leads to getting the bathroom floor very wet. Finally, if you decide to take a bath instead, the toiletry containers are too high to reach without standing up to use them. Poorly thought out. Shame as the hotel and staff are great.

The hotel rooms were fine - comfortable and clean. However, we didn’t like the mass of pigeon mess and dead pigeons on the roof areas which were visible from the upstairs corridor windows. I did write to the hotel about this issue before posting a review but had no response so have to conclude that they don’t care!

The Swan Hotel is a unique venue in a historic village which is like stepping back to Tudor times. Our large room had recently been refurbished and was lovely with a large super comfy bed. Personally I’d have preferred a walk in shower to one over the bath. Nice to have a safe in the room but positioning on the wardrobe floor wasn’t very practical.

Amazing couple of days in an amazing hotel Full of character and history, rooms were clean & very comfortable, tea/coffee facilities & local fresh bottled water, Bar was perfect for beers or afternoon cocktails, which we did enjoy, Friendly bar staff, Ron & Dave were full of local info & stories of the Swan & Levanham, & mixed lovely cocktales between tales of the town. We ate @ the Gallery restaurant,, all our meals were exceptional, breakfast menu was plentiful and perfectly cooked, evening menu was some of the best food any of us had tasted, really enjoyable couple of evenings, we had frienda from Portland Oregan with us, they had a great time & enjoyed the relaxation & professionalism of the whole experience,, Thank you to all involved, Special thanks go to our server, Jemima, a lovely friendly young lady, helped us through the menu !! Cheers,, we all can thoroughly recommend The Swan to anyone travelling in our lovely country,, 😍

Hotel excellent! Restaurant excellent! Staff & service outstanding! BUT the room we were expecting described as a Suffolk room according to the website! i.e a double room slightly larger than the Lavenham double room and is lighter and more airy could not have been further from the truth. The room allocated was a small dark room with two small ceiling height windows facing out onto a noisy main road. As the room was dark the electric lights needed to be kept switched on most of the time. The room was also very hot and stuffy requiring the electric fan (Provided by the hotel) to be kept in use most of the time, especially during the night! The bathroom which measured approximately 6' x6' ( No windows) housed a shower, wash basin and toilet! Located in the ceiling was an electric fan which unfortunately did not work so very unpleasant and humid when taking a shower etc. Please note: the room had excellent facilities ,toiletries dressing gowns TV Coffee/tea facilities etc. On making enquiries at the hotel reception! reference the room type? they advised that the room had been upgraded from a Lavenham to a Suffolk only 4 days before our arrival. As the room was pre-booked back in June 2024 for 2 nights the room was not as expected or good value for money.

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.

8.0 / 10.0

We were a bit disappointed with the bar/outside service. We are sure the revenue of the hotel would improve if a member of a member of staff came out to the outside areas/bar to see if you would like anything else rather than you having to go inside and stand at the bar - often unmanned- for another order. See how the Greyhound organise themselves with customer service

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 .

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.

3.0 / 10.0

The staff were execellent .The room very cosy for these price. The dinner in the dining room lacked atmosphere. My husband requested a rare as can be burger but was delivered dried and well over cooked . The downstairs lounge had moths flying around and we believe there must be a clothes moth infestation. The quality of the place has deteriorated since our last stay .

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.

Beautiful Tudor building. Not friendly for those with much luggage but this is the nature of the building. Comfortable room. The dinner menu is gourmet but very expensive and not good value for money.

5.0 / 10.0

Had a great stay at the Swan. Friendly, helpful staff. Some really good food in hotel restaurant. First time using the small spa which was nice. Room a bit small, but this is a very, very old building so this has to be expected unless going for a higher grade room. Bathroom nice but bath a bit small for a soak, again probably constrained by the buildings size. Lovely area for a chilled, relaxed visit with a charming village and beautiful Church. Lots of charming tea houses and interesting pubs to walk to.

8.0 / 10.0

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.

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.
