beware room149 is not fit for purpose

we arrived about 8pm and was allocated a very small and noisy room - next to the hall fire doors which banged closed all evening/night and near the boiler which hummed very loudly all evening and during the night. there was only one chair in the room or no soap dispenser over the bath/shower so did not shower that night. the next morning we found the only soap dispenser empty. so we phoned reception and asked for some soap. this was at 7am and was told housekeeping did not start until 8.30 am. they had no soap in reception. so we asked to be moved to another room so we could have a shower. the receptionist at first said that there was no other room available - hotel was fully booked. she then rang back and said there had been a no show. so we had to pack up and move to the new room which was luckily on the same floor. the new room was lovely. it had 2 chairs! was much bigger than the one we had just left, separate shower and bath and full soap dispensers. we went down to breakfast to be ignored by the waitress - we had to ask for coffee. that was the last straw. so we decided to make a complaint. we spoke to housekeeping as them manager was not available. we told them we were very disappointed with our stay at the hotel. they were very supportive and said they would report back to the manager. we asked for the manager to phone us to discuss this matter. this was two weeks ago. no one has phoned us to discuss our complaint, hence this feedback. 4* stay?

the hotel was good in its way but although they allow dogs you are ostracized for having one.They dispatch you to the corner of the bar to eat and they promptly forget you are there. I thought the hotel was not particularly welcoming. The first night we were there, we ate dinner at the hotel ( corner of the bar again), the price of a burger and a small portion of meat was extremely high. The presentation of the menu itself not what you expect from a decent hotel. Two tatty A4 paper stapled together was not my idea of a good presentation. All these little details are what makes a hotel exceptional and the Old Swan was not.

Don’t pay twice.

On check in arrival we were asked to pay for our room again ( already paid online ) to which I doubted myself and actually approved the second payment but then doubled checked my booking. Our room was small & the bed was awful , I know this is an old building but there was around 3” of crossfall on our room and felt like we were in the funhouse at Blackpool. Breakfast was nice and that’s about it.

My wife and I are 80 . Wife has a spinal injury so the ability to dine where we stay is vital. Booked dinner for 6-30 online at same time as online check in. Upon arrival was told dining was full. No thought given to informing us beforehand. Bad manners which means we will never return.

Lovely location. Young staff in restaurant attentive and friendly. Good breakfast. Hotel itself very dated. Needs a complete upgrade. Noisy pipes. Cold bedroom. Price paid does not reflect this.

Staff were lovely but the room had issues for us. The heating was pumping out with no means of turning it down, it was daft to have to unplug the TV in order to use the plug & boil a kettle! No plugs near our beds to charge phones.
