I've been staying at the Swan for years and booked this room 6 weeks ago, requesting a room in the Courtyard. I understand that the rooms may not always be available so when I checked in and was told that the Courtyard was unavailable, I was disappointed but understood. I later found out through a colleague that someone in front of her checking in was not happy with her room being in the old building (Room 14) and insisted they move her outside, they offered her room 19 in the Courtyard, I was put in room 14. I don't sleep in the older part of the building due to the noise on the high street. I'll not stay here again, the Portal up the road is a similar price and much more peaceful

1 night stay. Perfect welcome by the young lady on reception...personally showed me to my room which was a nice touch.

Ate at the restaurant, food was delicious shout out needed for the guys in the kitchen as well the 2 members of staff in the restaurant, both of whom were accommodating to my requests.

Room and bathroom was clean with nice products to use.

With the age of the building flooring in my room sloped, meaning the bed wasn't perfectly level and had to adjust my balance when simply standing up. This didnt detract from a comfortable stay. TV in the room was an internet tv but couldn't just switch on an watch, had to go through the apps which was a faff as had to log into some of them just to watch terrestrial based programmes.

Lovely village

Lovely room, clean and great hospitality tray. Village is wonderful, lots of great places to eat and drink.
Downsides for us were the car park that cannot be used but isn't advised before the stay, the loud water works and a room sold for 3 occupants but only came with one bed.
But otherwise good place for the amount we paid to rest your head.

2 night mid-week break

Very happy with our stay at The Swan Hotel, met by friendly staff, very comfy bed in one of the coach house rooms and tasty breakfast. We also ate in the hotel on the first night and was very happy with our meal and service. Parking is to the rear of the hotel which is on the main street through Tarporley, very central and easy. Overall an excellent stay

First stay at the swan hotel, probably our last
The hotel is tired
We helped ourselves to a table for breakfast where we got our juice, no one asked for our room number or offered us coffee! Let alone anything to eat. It took fifteen minutes before we made eye contact with the staff to place a cooked breakfast order. Very poor service and the restaurant wasn’t busy

Really outstanding option for us as a family - huge room we could all share in the centre of a beautiful village. Hotel has loads of charm and character + we loved the decor in the room and the public areas. Good atmosphere in the bar area downstairs and the breakfast was epic. Would highly recommend the Swan and we will return.

What an absolutely amazing place to stay! Took our 3 young girls here to stay for a couple of days away and this place was perfect for a family of 5! It is so beautiful and spacious! The staff are incredible and so good with children so accommodating and chatty which our girls loved telling them all about their days out to Alton towers and Chester zoo.

Not far from Chester Zoo and not too far from Alton Towers a bit further away. However, just an incredible stay away.

Pub food was amazing children’s menu was perfect the girls loved it, puddings were delicious 😋. Gin options were great!
Not many places offer a family of 5 to stay in one room and this place does! This was our first trip away as a family of 5 and we are so grateful to The Swan and their staff for making our first family trip so memorable and lovely. Thank you!
Would highly recommend and will definitely come back again and again!

Good hotel

Good hotel, stayed hear a few times but not for a few years, hotel improved a lot. stayed in a deluxe room in rear courtyard, very spacious and clean comfortable, coffee machine in room, good shower, Internet good and food and service excellent, only issue was room very warm due to weather and had to have windows open and made noise from outside especially church bells every hour annoying, Car Parking limited and made worse by personnel parking over lines not hotels fault, but overall would stay again.

Comfy one night stay

Lovely, friendly staff. Only complaint about stay, there were only two sheets of toilet roll in the bedroom bathroom. Had to use our tissues from our car.
Had a nice meal in restaurant. Good selection. Pork dish had to be sent back as meat pink in middle. Not ideal. But fish delicious.
Will be back if in that area again.

Fantastic stay I couldn't fault ...

The Hotel is gorgeous and spacious and never felt over crowded.

The Deluxe Double Room was immaculate and very pretty.

The breakfast was faultless. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Review of The Swan, Tarporley.

We booked for a two night stay. The staff were very friendly. The food was average. The bed was comfortable but not re-made after our first night. Our room was small and overwhelmed by a large bed. Getting around the room was awkward when there were two of us moving about. No drawers for putting clothes in and no place to keep our suitcases. The bathroom needs attention. There appeared to be a lot of unfinished sealing around the plumbing and a loose piece of wood which was tucked behind the toilet presumably to be used to cover up a hole. The smell from the area around the toilet was disgusting and there was a very loud noise coming from the cistern when the toilet was flushed. A lot of our comments are based around the room we stayed in which was one of the more expensive in the hotel by and large the rest of the hotel was very pleasant.

It was disappointing. The room was far smaller than implied, the windows had to be left, which let a lot spiders in, which my partner is afraid off. Also, it was very noisy from the pipe work/plumbing which we could hear other residents all through the night every time someone else used the bathroom. The room listing stated it was a king size bed but this was just a double

They also managed to get our breakfast wrong, and we were the only two people eating. We both asked for scrambled eggs and neither of us got eggs with our breakfast. Until we asked if they were coming separately, to which they responded “I didn’t even notice you didn’t have eggs on your plate”

All around, very disappointing

Cold shower....tired looking twin room

Booked in on Saturday 28th June 2025.
I was disappointed on entering the twin bedroom, it did not stand up to the pictures online.
The positive....beds were comfortable and complementary tea, coffee, biscuits and crisps was lovely.
My friend and I had our evening meal in the restaurant, which was lovely the service was good, staff were friendly.
Our biggest disappointment was the bathroom very tired looking, shower screen did not stay where it should hence from continuous use you could see the damage caused below.....come the morning to take a shower it was cold.....not matter what I tried and my friend the shower did not heat up.
Furthermore, the shower control was so tight it was very difficult to turn. My friend was unable to get a bath as an alternative due to her mobility she would not of been able to get back out of the bath, hence she had a strip wash. I myself had a quick bath, which was a very small bath (a walk in shower would be more fitting for the space)
Breakfast was lovely.
On checking out I spoke to a male member of staff....he informed a higher female member of staff that I could speak to.....I informed her very politely about our disappointment regarding the room.....she informed me that she would let the manager know the next day as he was off and that he would get in touch. I am still waiting six days later..... very disappointed not away to do customer service.

Terrible bathroom and noisy room

Hotel is nice old fashioned coaching inn type. I was exhausted from travel and found No parking on site at arrival - all places taken so had to park in town car park and had to move bag and equipment from here about 100 yards. Room right at front, incredibly noisy from traffic and single glazed. Room small for a premium rate. Bathroom abysmal. Pump/macerator in use whenever running water is on. Horrendous sound and absolutely dreadful drain/sewage smell permeates the room every time it activates. Not sure how they can actually sell this room. Terrible sleep and didn't stay for breakfast. People in breakfast room being charged for coffee with breakfast? (never encountered this in25 years of hotel stays) Guy (manager?) doing this and not checking out guests. Key taken by cleaner. Nice staff on check in but a 9.0 rating here on Hotels .com? it wasn't even close.

Disappointed from a great pub.

Noisy room, and whenever you use water you get a very bad smell coming up through the plug holes. Probably due to macerater. Lovely pub shame about the room. Bedroom was well stocked and nice but bathroom hasn’t been changed and paint splashes on the wooden floor. Very disappointing bathroom and smell.

A favourite now

We like this high street hotel in Tarpoley which is a beautiful village close to the golf course where we play with friends. The restaurant on site is very good and the rooms very comfortable. If noise is a problem for you though, ask for a room away from the front of the hotel.

Not what it was

I’ve stayed at the Swan before but was disappointed this time. The rooms are comfortable but in need of some TLC it all seems to be in need updating. No USB sockets. Kettle had to be put on the floor to reach a plug and the TV reception wasn’t good.

Great location for Oulton Park.

I was racing at Oulton Park and stayed at the Swan again. It’s handy for the track and ticks all the boxes.
Check-in at the bar. Rooms are clean. Maybe feel a bit dated, but that’s the old building. Restaurant is Fine. The bar has Moretti on draft.
Would I stay there again - it’s a Yes.

The room in Annex was good, with steep stairs and the strangest lighting arrangements I have seen in a while, I mean the way the lights are controlled, all or nothing. Great shower and quiet after the main bar closes and cars move off. The room could do with a fan. Meals and breakfast first class, staff exceptional.
