Lovely village

Lovely room, clean and great hospitality tray. Village is wonderful, lots of great places to eat and drink. Downsides for us were the car park that cannot be used but isn't advised before the stay, the loud water works and a room sold for 3 occupants but only came with one bed. But otherwise good place for the amount we paid to rest your head.

2 night mid-week break

Very happy with our stay at The Swan Hotel, met by friendly staff, very comfy bed in one of the coach house rooms and tasty breakfast. We also ate in the hotel on the first night and was very happy with our meal and service. Parking is to the rear of the hotel which is on the main street through Tarporley, very central and easy. Overall an excellent stay

First stay at the swan hotel, probably our last The hotel is tired We helped ourselves to a table for breakfast where we got our juice, no one asked for our room number or offered us coffee! Let alone anything to eat. It took fifteen minutes before we made eye contact with the staff to place a cooked breakfast order. Very poor service and the restaurant wasn’t busy

Really outstanding option for us as a family - huge room we could all share in the centre of a beautiful village. Hotel has loads of charm and character + we loved the decor in the room and the public areas. Good atmosphere in the bar area downstairs and the breakfast was epic. Would highly recommend the Swan and we will return.

What an absolutely amazing place to stay! Took our 3 young girls here to stay for a couple of days away and this place was perfect for a family of 5! It is so beautiful and spacious! The staff are incredible and so good with children so accommodating and chatty which our girls loved telling them all about their days out to Alton towers and Chester zoo. Not far from Chester Zoo and not too far from Alton Towers a bit further away. However, just an incredible stay away. Pub food was amazing children’s menu was perfect the girls loved it, puddings were delicious 😋. Gin options were great! Not many places offer a family of 5 to stay in one room and this place does! This was our first trip away as a family of 5 and we are so grateful to The Swan and their staff for making our first family trip so memorable and lovely. Thank you! Would highly recommend and will definitely come back again and again!

Good hotel

Good hotel, stayed hear a few times but not for a few years, hotel improved a lot. stayed in a deluxe room in rear courtyard, very spacious and clean comfortable, coffee machine in room, good shower, Internet good and food and service excellent, only issue was room very warm due to weather and had to have windows open and made noise from outside especially church bells every hour annoying, Car Parking limited and made worse by personnel parking over lines not hotels fault, but overall would stay again.

Comfy one night stay

Lovely, friendly staff. Only complaint about stay, there were only two sheets of toilet roll in the bedroom bathroom. Had to use our tissues from our car. Had a nice meal in restaurant. Good selection. Pork dish had to be sent back as meat pink in middle. Not ideal. But fish delicious. Will be back if in that area again.

Review of The Swan, Tarporley.

We booked for a two night stay. The staff were very friendly. The food was average. The bed was comfortable but not re-made after our first night. Our room was small and overwhelmed by a large bed. Getting around the room was awkward when there were two of us moving about. No drawers for putting clothes in and no place to keep our suitcases. The bathroom needs attention. There appeared to be a lot of unfinished sealing around the plumbing and a loose piece of wood which was tucked behind the toilet presumably to be used to cover up a hole. The smell from the area around the toilet was disgusting and there was a very loud noise coming from the cistern when the toilet was flushed. A lot of our comments are based around the room we stayed in which was one of the more expensive in the hotel by and large the rest of the hotel was very pleasant.
