A thoroughly enjoyable stay: friendly, attentive staff; small but pleasant room; good beer in the bar; nice food at dinner and breakfast. The weather was fabulous during our stay and it was lovely to have the river view from our bedroom and the dining room, and to sit out on the terrace for pre-dinner drinks.

The Swan Hotel is amazing. Beautiful riverside pub a creaky old building full of character. The staff were amazing. We had an evening race at nearby Dorney Lake, it was my birthday and our anniversary the next day. We pitched up at 1pm when the check in wasn’t till 3pm. They were charming, found us a lovely room with a balcony. Lunch was fabulous. We were worried we wouldn’t get back in time for dinner as the kitchen normally closes 9-9:30pm but they held the restaurant open and we had another lovely meal before heading in to the bar to watch football on tv. Cannot fault any aspect of our stay. I was amazed the place isn’t full every night

Highly recommend this hotel. Service is great and the place is beautiful inside and out. I’ve stayed in four hotels across Staines and Egham, but will always stay at The Seán from now on. It’s lovely.

We had a quick one night stay at The Swan Hotel and wish we had more time! We were very impressed with the friendly service, exceptional amenities, amazing breakfast and beautiful scenery and location along the River Thames. The rooms are small (as advertised) but super cozy and welcoming! I wish we had more time here and would highly recommend!
