Lovely hotel let down by food
We stayed 1 night midweek and had a 3 course meal at the resturant and were really disapointed in the limited menu and the meals themselves were pretty poor. A couple at the table next to us sent their food back and left it was so bad. For a posh restaurant I couldn't understand how they use the centre piece table as a place to stack dirty plates when clearing tables in full view of many of the guests? Breakfast was fine you can't go wrong with a full english. We had afternoon tea, when we asked to sit in the lounge area to have it (where a couple of years ago it was fine) we were told we had to have it in the restaurant as guests would have nowhere to sit in the lounge? This was a real shame as the lounge area was lovely and we had had enough of the restaurant! As for the afternoon tea once again very poor presentation, choice of teas good but the cakes were all horrible. A real shame as the Hotel is lovely in a real picture postcard village.
Weekend stay
I treated my mum to a weekend here at the Swan for her birthday. We had a three course dinner in the restaurant, a spa treatment and afternoon tea. My mum absolutely loved it. From the moment we arrived mum felt as relaxed and well cared for as she could have hoped for. All of the staff are very welcoming/ helpful and informative. The dinner was absolutely lovely and the afternoon tea was very naughty but very yummy!
I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a weekend away or for those special occasions.
LOVELY LAVENHAM
