Towels are a bit thin, could do with some thicker ones

We have stayed at The Swan Hotel a few times and have to say all the staff are really friendly, they can't do enough for you. Great location and decent breakfast.

Really lovely and accommodating staff, delicious breakfast. The room was a little dated but still clean and great value.

The food was excellent both in the restaurant and the breakfast

Literally the only thing that we found to criticise was the tiny bath towels which didn’t dry very well.

Our stay at The Swan was delightful. A very warm welcome, a quiet, spacious room with comfy beds and an excellent “steak night” meal. Really good breakfast too.

There was an electrical round thing on the ceiling. Probably something to do with a fire alarm. It had a light which in the night was focused on the bed by the pillow. I explained to the staff that maybe the bed or alarm could be moved. It was stopping me sleep as I like a dark room. The staff member said she would speak to the management.

Lovely room exceptionally clean. Bed, shower, toilet. Good breakfast lots of choice. Good car park at the back, free.

All a bit creaky and dated. Bedding looked like your granny's!

Nice and clean, excellent restaurant, really friendly staff, great breakfast served until 10am.

Close to busy road which meant couldn't open windows due to noise. So room hot.

Very friendly helpful staff. Good breakfast 😋

The hallway smelt really musty...but it is an aged building. Maybe a written guide as to eateries in the area.

The manager was lovely...very warm and hospitable. The room was clean and had everything necessary for a short stay. The two staff I met were really pleasant.

Bathroom on other side of corridor, must remember your door key if you use it.

Comfortable room, no desk but no problem for 1 night. Seperate bathroom, don't forget your key during the night. Bathroom roomy enough for shower, shave etc. There is a hand sink in the room Didn't have dinner but breakfast freshly cooked, very tasty. Hotel is situated in the centre of Lydney close to restaurants, take aways and supermarkets. Very quiet night despite being on the high street. Will stay there again

Its location is great as we went to a lot of nearby places and forests. The hosts there are really kind and friendly, always asked if we needed anything. The bar is a nice place to sit down to unwind and we also ate dinner there which is really good! There’s also parking space at the back of the hotel.

I booked it for my daughter and son inlaw to stay. They loved it.

Location perfect, in a small town.( just a bit noise from the cars in the morning- but if you’re in the middle of a town 😀) We were so warmly invited by the owner.She is so lovely lady and “girls “ looking after us on breakfast are very friendly and professional 👍
