The Swan InnWarminster Road, SP2 0PR Salisbury (Show map) Very good, Score from 184 reviews“The staff were all extremely pleasant from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. The full English breakfast was unbelievable! - there was a really good range of cooked dishes but the 'full English' (including the huge teapot of tea) was enough to keep us going all day and was exceptionally tasty. The range of bar and a la carte food in the evening was very good and saved us the need to look elsewhere.”

The food was lovely and the bar reasonably priced. Friendly staff and comfortable The room had not seen a hoover for some time and the bathroom was not cleaned to a 4 star standard. Extremely noisy road but can't be helped.

Extremely polite and helpful staff. Some confusion with the booking but this was speedily resolved prior to arrival to our complete satisfaction; namely we were unable to have the Hemingway as booked but we were offered a discounted alternative. Very hearty breakfast and the room was very comfortable. Ate in the bar on the first night - this was very good too. The busy main road which separates the hotel from the car park. This did not cause a noise nuisance to us but it wasn't pleasant to cross and the walk to the bus stop for Salisbury wasn't great when HGVs thundered past in what is meant to be a 30 zone.

Very nice room and contemporary design throughout the Swan. Nice restaurant food and good breakfast. Friendly staff. The location next to a main road spoiled my stay at the Swan. It is on the main a36 and the HGVs pass just feet from your window with respite only during the early hours of the morning.

Pleasant staff, very good food and drink with plenty of variety and excellent breakfast. Good atmosphere. Bedroom had no chairs- rooms ae relatively small so one can see why. Nevertheless, even a folding chair would help with time spent in room.

Clean rooms, super menus and food, very good, friendly staff, great location, views to die for. Great value for money. Only slight downside is the busy main road which has to be crossed to get to and from the car park and riverside gardens, it's ok for adults but might be a problem for families with children.

Good breakfast and dinner. Friendly staff. Very busy road in front and 'suite' is a bit of a misnomer. Room was ok but not luxurious like you would think from the photos.

It was conveniently located There was no heating in the room outside temps were at minus readings. Asked twice for it to be put on but no action was taken. My mother and I had to sleep with our clothes on. No socket was near a mirror to allow you to see to dry our hair. Breakfast was served on cold plates and the food itself was also cold. Beverages were lukewarm , no butter or preserves were on the table. Although requested no provision was made for my gluten free diet. The were unpleasant and unhelpul especially when asking about rectifying the heating. the rooms do not have any likeness to what is shown on the internet and not very clean, although the bedlinen was.

The Swan Inn is welcoming and informal, our room was well decorated and comfortable. It is very accessible from Salisbury and for visiting Stonehenge. The food was very good, the desert was fabulous. Breakfast was equally as good. Parking and internet is free. Can't fault The Swan Inn and will definately stay there again.

The Swan is ideally located for a visit to Salisbury. The river, which is just across the road, is an ideal place to sit and watch the swans (excuse that) glide by. However as it was bitterly cold we could not take advantage. The staff were, on the whole, most obliging and friendly. The room was clean, if small, likewise the ensuite. The food was very good and reasonably priced and the breakfast (included) was extremely good with an abundance of coffee. The manager stayed on his mobile when we arrived, thus keeping us waiting a while. Not a good thing! The room was advertised as being a 'Superior' double but was most certainly not. It was extremely small - you had to squeeze between the foot of the bed and the wall one at a time. Also although it was supposed to be a kingsize bed - the mattress was most definitely not. The bed base might have been but as the mattress was inserted inside the frame that made it smaller. Because of the above my sleep suffered!

The room was spacious,modern, clean and comfortable. The breakfast menu was extensive with a number of choices. The room was quiet even though it was above a pub.A Lovely historic building very close to Stonehenge.Free parking. The room I booked was not the room I received and I was initially billed for a more expensive room until I questioned what was going on. I was then told that the original room was already taken and they suddenly offered the upgrade for free. I would have been charged extra if I was not vigilant. The breakfast waitress was very unfriendly. I asked for a cocoa/hot chocolate for my young son who does not drink tea/coffee. I was told that this was not possible. The only hotel on our entire trip not to offer a hot drink suitable for children!

An excellent location for our overnight stop midway between Kent and Devon - not too far off the main A303. Good value for money and heaps better value and more comfortable than staying in a budget hotel/motel closer to our main route. Overall, a nice place to stay in a pretty location. One or two minor drawbacks: not a huge choice of dishes on the evening menu but main drawback in room for me was that there was no plug point close to the mirror, which made using hair dryer and hot brush difficult. Perhaps another smaller mirror (a portable one perhaps) could be put closer to the plug.

We chose the Swan as we were to stay for only one night to visit Stonehenge. The food was great for pub food, the staff more than accommodating, and the final bill was far below what I was expecting to pay. Cannot recommend this hotel enough... We loved our stay.

The room was very nice, if a little chilly on a cold winter's night. But the best thing about the stay was the food that we had in the bar downstairs, which was excellent. I would highly recommend a stay here just for the pork belly! The inn is right next to a busy main road, although the rooms are well insulated from the sound of the traffic.
