A great place to stay

Fabulous stay at The White Swan Inn for two nights. Lovely area and only 30 minutes from Whitby along the most amazing road. Hotel was everything we had hoped for, friendly, cozy, great restaurant, bar and atmosphere. Lovely fires welcomed you back after a chilly day. Room was comfortable, clean and lots of tea and coffee and water available. Breakfast was amazing too. Lovely team

Great all round stay

On arrival service was spot on, the room was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The only slight negative was the amount of time needed for hot water to reach the shower. My evening meal was good quality and reasonably priced, beer was good and the breakfast was also good quality and well cooked. I would definitely stay here next time I’m in the area.

Nostalgic trip around Malton.

We had 5 nights in late October to revisit North Yorkshire. The White Swan was an excellent location to do this.

Very enjoyable stay, and would return. Good food options. Our stay coincided with an England football game that was very noisy in the adjacent conservatory. Though, I appreciate this not a common occurrence.

We had a lovely room with a separate living area . The staff were all so friendly and obliging and the hotel was close to the NorthYorkshire Moors Railway station at Pickering so walking there took 5 mins. Pickering itself is charming with a good selection of shops and bakeries so there is enough for all tastes. We would return again to the White Swan.

Lvely, friendly hotel.

A lovely place to stay in the middle of Pickering, and very handy for the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. Excellent food and friendly service. If you are less able then we would suggest checking with the hotel beforehand as there are stairs in the main building, and our bath was not easy to get into or out of. Otherwise excellent and will stay again.

Instead of a bedroom we got a split level suite with rather awkward stairs.

The place looks rather unappealing from the kerbside but oh my what a pleasant surprise inside. We were lucky enough to get upgraded to a ‘hideaway’ room around the back and it was beautiful. Gorgeous furnishings and the bedding was luxurious. The food in the restaurant was delicious and I couldn’t fault anything about our stay. Thanks to the team at the White Swan.

The Pick of Pickering

Very friendly and helpful staff, very much an old coaching Inn, with modernised facilities, Great Atmosphere, right in the centre of Pickering. A short walk to the North Yorkshire Steam Railway. Very Good quality hearty meals, and a comfortable ensuite room.
