Quaint but not particularly comfortable
Exterior smells of the brewery and food smells from kitchen extractors seem to pervade the area.
Staff very polite and helpful. Decent choices on the menus in the Tap Room and the main restaurant,
Across all area the staff were very helpful and polite - Central location with its own car park. Clean rooms. Nice relaxed stay.
the garden room; ideal for me and my dog.
the lights were not bright enough
Staff could benefit from "Deaf Aware" courses
Everything just perfect
Nothing at all

Loved everything
The starr were brilliant as was the cleanliness. The water supply and plumbing were really fist class.
The furnishings were directed more towards style than comfort for instance the bedside table was stylish but had no storage. The table has a top but no under shelf. The food choice was limited and whilst the main ingredient (fish, meat etc.) was good, there was not much of it and, in my opinion, the veg choice was poor and limited. Just not what I expected for such a highly rated and expensive hotel
We all enjoyed the surroundings and comfort of the hotel. The staff were fantastic us as my mum was in a wheelchair. The dinner on Saturday night was delicious and the chef even went against the rule for duck and cooked my mum's well done as she doesn't like pink. The breakfast was delicious the only thing I would say is all the bananas were over ripe and needed throwing away or used up in a cake:)
Location
Noise from the brewery and people passing by
Ideal location, short walk to beach and pier. Right in centre of shops.
The Restaurant could be very noisy at times.
Very central location with comfortable rooms and good food.
Staff, hotel decor, location
Dirty headboard and lumpy, sagging mattress.
Breakfast was excellent and service very good
Location excellent too
The evening meal not to our taste and the burgers we had in the bar the second night were under cooked
We love Southwold and also staying at the Swan, which we have done many times over the years. The staff are friendly and very helpful. The reception staff and Richard, the Porter made a very good impression. We loved room 47 as we were able to sit outside late into the evening. The staff in the dining room and tap room took good care of us, delivering delicious food.
A little more choice of meals in the Tap Room. However, I fully understand with the current economic climate, that maximising overhead costs is essential to the hospitality industry. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals.
