I've known the Swan Hotel for over fifty years. In fact it was the first place I stayed at in Suffolk, when my parents decided to buy a plot of land and build a home in Walberswick. When I learnt of the recent refurb I was a little wary, as the well worn traditional style gave way to contemporary design. However, having made the leap into another time, I have to say that the results are splendid. The food is exceptional now and very much up there with the best in Suffolk alongside the Great House of Lavenham and the Fox and Goose of Fressingfield. Their 'Gin poached pear, spiced crumbs, and Italian meringue with a cassis sorbet' was like a party in the mouth! The staff, led by Craig and Yasmin, backed up by the eccentric Holmes, ensure the service is both highly efficient as well as friendly. Thanks also to Nadia, Richard, Emily, Rebecca for making the Swan a 'home from home'.
We have just arrived home after an amazing evening staying at The swan for our 15th wedding anniversary,staff where so helpful and polite and had a lot of knowledge on the building. Our room was stunning and a lovely touch was the welcoming cakes with happy anniversary on . Got a complimentary bottle of Adnams gin and the spa products where so lovely to use. We had a wonderful over looking the square with a window seat which was so lovely to sit and people watch. I booked a table in the still room and my goodness we was not disappointed it was beautifully presented staff where very attentive and it trashed fantastic. And another finishing touch was a plate with happy anniversary on it and a selection of mini cakes which was just so lovely . We had an amazing nights sleep but to be fair we have 2 yr old twins and an 8yr old so getting a full nights sleep is always very welcomed. Breakfast was amazing with a selection of cereals fruits juices even champagne if u wanted a pick me up from the night before 😉😉 all in all we had an amazing stay and sohope we can persuade the grandparents to have the children again so we can stay again . Thank you so very much we had a lovely time . The wilsons xxx
This is a wonderful hotel, old fashioned in the best possible sense. This was our 3rd stay, we had the same room with a lighthouse & distant sea view. Gorgeous newly re-furbed bathroom - the decor in the room (which is huge) was a little bit dated but high quality & a huge comfortable bed. Dinner was excellent from start to finish including homemade petit fours with the coffee. The.staff are welcoming & polite without being stuffy and the breakfast waiting ladies are the best. Can't wait for our next visit.
