The pub is nice but was being renovated at the time. Staff were excellent very helpful and friendly. It was 21 degrees overnight and the aircon didnt work, so not a great night. The breakfast is ok,would avoid the catalan sausage next time,very gristly. Overall very clean with polite staff ,would stay again if the occasion ever arose.

Good, but room for improvement!

Our second stay at The Swan, so we knew what to expect. Motel-style bedrooms are on the small side, with very limited space to put clothes. Hospitality items (basic tea-bags and cafetiere for coffee) are provided but were not refreshed the next day without a reminder. The room layout could be considerably improved by moving the TV under the sloped ceiling and putting a slim chest of drawers in front of the window for the hospitality items and clothes storage. Please put a bedside light on each side of the bed - there is room and just having one is not sufficient! Provision of a small fridge in the room for fresh milk and chilled water would be appreciated. There is quite a lot of light pollution at night as the slatted blind and frosted window in the door don't block light from the outside lighting. Great breakfasts and friendly staff. Well located (10 minutes walk to the station) and easy to park.

Great stay

The pub is great, love the itallian vibe, quite a sun trap outside. Lovely staff, food is good and not expensive. Parking is what it is, however nearby streets are safe with plenty of space, nice area. Rooms are cosy, well appointed and have all you need, iron, kettle, en-suite. Nice coutyard with table if you want outside space but away from the beer garden. I like the place and will return

Overnight stop

Overnight stop on way home. Very helpful staff. The room was small but the bathroom was a good size and was wonderfully equipped. Hotel is well situated. Claygate station is a ten minute walk with regular trains to Waterloo or by changing at Clapham Junction you can get to Victoria.

UK Visit

The room was a bit small.The comforter on the bed was too thick - woke up sweating even with AC running. There should be a lighter blanket for those who wish to remain a little cooler and not want to run the AC while they sleep. Other than that, the service and food were great!

Really nice but not restful

It's a really nice hotel, pub and restaurant. The staff are great - very friendly and very helpful. The room was spotless and in very good condition. Extremely dog friendly - and has been designed to be dog friendly, so hard floors making the room easy to clean after a dog. Now, the one bad point. You're living in a pub, so it's not going to be restful. The pub is open to 11, so there's noise and then a lot of light (the blinds in the rooms don't cut the mustard) until midnight or so. Then the bin truck arrives at 7 for last night's empties - or the delivery lorry for the next night.
