Arrived at the hotel, rather disappointed to find that the photos advertising it had been very selective. Car park said free for guests, yet was charged £5. Charges £2 for using credit card. No WIFI, no movie channels. Bath towels perfect for DIY, like sand paper and an off white colour. Room clean and tidy. £20 for breakfast room service.... More

We stopped overnight on our way up North. The sevice from all the staff was excellent. Room was just what we wanted with more than enough room for the cage for our dog. It was good to have a restaurant onsite with affordable meal offers. The full English breakfast was up to the usual Macdonald choice and standard, with very... More

The staff here were very obliging and the rooms were warm and comfortable. We thought the decor was a bit old fashioned and there were signs of crumblng (window frames needed replacing). The shower room however looked fairly new and was very good. The parking was very good but you have to pay £5 per day (even if you're disabled,... More

We stayed at the Swans Nest Hotel for 2 nights in April using the Tesco voucher scheme. We did have some doubts, having never stayed anywhere using this scheme and after reading some negative comments about the hotel on Trip Adviser. However, we were more than happy with the room we were allocated. Whilst not the largest room we've ever... More

If you're in Stratford for the theatre, this hotel is very convenient with only a short walk to the theatre. The rooms are OK, clean but not large. Breakfast service can be slow. Some reservations on security as access from car park left open without security.

We returned to the Swan's nest after an absence of 3 or so years to find that prices have gone up considerably without any obvious extra for your money. On the contrary you now have to pay £5 to park in the hotel car park - blamed on non-residents trying to park for free. Good remedy surcharge your paying customers.... More

Spent three nights at the Swans Nest. Good value for the price we paid. The hotel is in the heart of the town - only five minutes walk across a footbridge. Our room was clean and spacious with tea and coffee facilities. We didn't eat in the hotel as there are lots of good restaurants in Stratford. Breakfast can be... More

Nests provide a homey, cosy feeling. If you expect this from a hotel bearing a Nest name, you might be disappointed. Instead, you'll find a perfectly located andcomfortable place to stay, with a clean, well-spaced and efficiently laid-out room (such was ours, on the ground floor). You're a stone's throw away from the theatres and the town (just cross the... More

Stayed here in march overnight as a birthday treat. Great location, a short walk to town centre. Rooms clean but basic, and in need of updating, paint chipped and peeling on bathroom door, window frames had hardly any paint left on them and in need of repair. However nice view over the garden!
