A lovely waterside stay

We have stayed here a few times and always enjoy it's proximity to the theatre, the lovely surroundings and the helpful and cheerful staff. Breakfast is good, nice a la carte selection and rooms confortable. The walk back from town in the evening, with the lights on the water is especially pretty.

Lovely stay

Receptionist was lovely, really friendly and helpful. Room was very comfortable,spacious and well furnished and we slept so well. Bathroom could be cleaner, cobwebs around window and black mould in corner of bath/shower and door mouldings covered in dust which is a shame because everything else was amazing and the position perfect next to the river and a short uber ride to the castle in Warwick

Swans Nest Hotel

The Swan’s Nest is our preferred choice hotel in Stratford on Avon. We visit for the theatre 8-10 times per year so we have a broad, year-round experience of this hotel. Great facilities with the Bear Pub and Bistro Pierre. Parking is easy and one of the cheapest in town.
Graham, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Swans Nest Stratford on Avon

Really well located for the RSC theatres and Stratford centre. However, a little quieter as the hotel is located on the other side of the Avon. We like the bistro and pub/bar attached to the hotel. Staff are all very helpful and friendly. It is our preferred hotel in Stratford on Avon.
