    We wanted a double room, which it was, but it was 2 single beds zipped together and there was a big crater in the middle of the bed. I assume the room can be changed into a twin on request, but the sleeping wasn't that comfortable.

    Location was great, we didn't eat there but the room was clean and a decent size, I am disabled and they put our room near the car park which was an added bonus.

    The only issue we had was that at various times throughout the night people were standing beneath our bedroom window talking loudly and smoking and the smell of the smoke was coming into our room.

    The room got a bit hot, even with heating off and air flow maximum. I guess from the temperature in the corridors that the ground floor rooms are cooler. We got a space in the car park but it was probably the last (at 3pm on a sunny Saturday). We thought that if we'd wanted to take the car out there might not then be a space when we returned. On Sunday night there was plenty of room.

    The staff were friendly and quick to help. The room was a good size, with space to sit at a small table as well as the desk. The bed was very comfortable. The hotel is in a great location for the centre of Stratford and the theatre (via the pedestrian bridge).

    Unfortunately, on this occasion, it would appear that lack of communication between the reception staff and the restaurant staff was exceedingly prominent. We were part of a group of 8 close friends who gather on a particular date each year for very personal reasons. We requested a table to accommodate us all for breakfast (in particular) but, Unfortunately this was not relayed to the restaurant. It not only happened to us on two occasions but to other residents also. Breakfast on our last day was incredibly late - from eventually taking orders to it arriving at the table - so much so, one couple of our party had to leave without eating as they had an appointment they needed to attend. A complaint was made to the restaurant manager highlighting our disappointment but nothing was suitably resolved. One couple's air con could not be adjusted or switched off and had to call maintenance late at night - in fact, she had trouble getting the attention of the night receptionist as he was too busy on his mobile phone. Another gentleman came to help but it certainly wasn't fixed. He just turned it off, so they were left with nothing for the rest of the duration. The Swan's Nest was our personal recommendation and it was noted by all that the price has increased greatly from last year but the overall level of service has fallen somewhat. The hotel manager was informed and was deeply sorry for our experience.

    We've stayed at Swan's Nest on several occasions - mainly because the location is excellent and we've been looked after very well on those occasions- hence our last visit. The majority of the staff are courteous, polite & helpful.

    The room air conditioning was faulty and we could not turn it off or amend the temperature, it was blasting out very cold air, I phoned reception at 11.30 pm to ask for help, no answer, got dressed and went to reception to find a young man transfixed to his mobile phone😖, I told him what the problem was and another man told me to take out the card!! I explained that if I did that we would have NO power in the room, so he came out to the room and finally managed to turn it off, no one came to fix this the following day and was not fixed even before we left , We arrived for breakfast on Sunday morning @ 08.50 giving us plenty of time to have our prepaid breakfast before we had to leave @10.15, how wrong was we, at 10.15 we had to check out and leave without breakfast!! When we checked out we were told, that we could have free parking for our inconvenience Unfortunately we didn’t have time to argue and said fine We have stayed here before but this year had to pay£8 per night to park the car, this was included last year

    The location and staff was exceptional as ever as this is not the first time we have stayed there, our evening meal at the Bistro Pierre was great and May was a fantastic host and server too
