Lovely staff- unfortunate visit
Pros:

The room looked as pictured, apart from scaffolding around the outside on our visit. The staff were friendly and helpful and managed to find us an extra fan for our room and took money off our drinks to reimburse our parking.

Cons:

The room was roasting hot (they can't control the weather) but our room had been shut off all day with no ventilation and we were right above the kitchen. They had to close the kitchen early due to it being too hot so we missed out on dinner and had to get a kebab as everything else was closed. The bathroom needed updating.. it looked old and grubby. Parking is a nightmare in the area but we made do in the co op carpark to get our bags in (you have to pay for that parking too) and the staff told us where to park up the road. Unfortunately due to our experience we wouldn't stay again, but maybe it's better in the cooler weather.

I’m sure there are better options. Get your act together if you want paying guests Swan.
Pros:

Good location. Comfortable bed

Cons:

Staff totally out of their depth. Poor greeting on arrival. No knowledge of wine (which was very ordinary). No proper place to check in. Manager good (helped with bags & was professional) but with badly trained staff and no systems, was not enough.

Unable to make contact with hotel- Not acceptable
Cons:

Booking.com and Swindon Borough Council have been trying to contact this property regarding the cancellation. they have ignored all emails, and their telephone line does not allow you to leave messages to get any contact back. I would be cautious before booking if you are concerned about communication with this hotel.

Pros:

The room was very nice and clean, friendly and helpful staff members. It was easy to find, check-in until 23:00.

Cons:

There is no parking near the hotel - parking space is 300 m away, charges around 6 GBP.

The boiler in the bathroom is quite loud during the night, had a poor night sleep because of that.

Good value for money in the centre of Wadebridge close to the bus station and shops.
Pros:

Hotel was in the centre, close to the shops and bus station. Room was cleaned everyday and we had tea and coffee facilities re-stocked everyday.

Cons:

The hotel has scaffolding all around at the moment, so there was scaffolding right outside our bedroom window.

Buon rapporto qualità prezzo.
Pros:

Posizione comoda e facile da raggiungere. Eravamo con la macchina e non molto distante c'è un comodo parcheggio (seppur a pagamento). Bella camera e letto comodo. È al piano superiore di un pub, ma lo abbiamo cmq trovato silenzioso e la mattina è possibile fare colazione perché il pub le prepara. Staff gentile.

Cons:

Mi sarebbe piaciuto avere un opzione per il parcheggio legata alla struttura.

Value for money stopover
Pros:

Good to see the outside of the building is being painted. Hopefully this initiative will follow to the tired, but clean, interior.

Cons:

Did not get to experience breakfast as nothing is available before 09:30

Excellent place to stay in central Wadebridge
Pros:

Very central - good Coop opposite and easy to get 57 bus to Padstow almost outside. The room was very comfortable, with a proper bath! Staff were extremely welcoming and friendly.

Cons:

Some of the decoration was a bit worn, but still fine.
