A new experience, a decent hotel on a business trip. Be warned, no mobile phone coverage but that means no one can disturb you. Excellent evening meal and very good choice of refereshments. Well recommended.

I've been to The Swan may times and it never fails to delight. A group of us visited for an early supper after a brilliant afternoon tour of beautiful, historic Lavenham (led by the very knowledgeable Barbara) and it was perfect. The sun shone all afternoon too. We had a large table in the contemporary dining area and had preordered... More

Lavenham isn't too far to travel so we came here for afternoon tea as it was recommended. The village is a picture postcard and the Swan full of character. Inside the place is luxurious and very comfortable. The food was excellent the staff very attentive. Have to say that the quantity/quality of the food were well worth the money.

We spent our wedding anniversary at the Swan. We couldn't be more pleased. Our room was spacious and well- equipped. The dinner in the restaurant was superb, very high quality food, a most imaginative menu. The building itself is so quintessentially English, very historic and picturesque in a most delightful village with much to see. Heartily recommended.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Nestling in the Suffolk countryside, between Bury St. Edmunds and Sudbury, is The Swan Hotel in Lavenham, perhaps one of England's most iconic hotels. The Swan dates back to the 15th century when it played a key role in Lavenham's wool trade. Today it is a quintessential English country hotel and restaurant, proud of its achievement of an AA four star 81% rating and two AA Rosettes. Ancient oak beams and inglenook fireplaces blend beautifully with rich furnishings and fabrics to create the perfect ambiance for rest and relaxation. The historic Old Bar boasts a wonderful collection of memorabilia, including a wall signed by British and American airmen stationed at Lavenham Airfield during World War II. The Swan is a wonderful place in which to celebrate a variety of special occasions, including romantic weddings, christenings and family get-togethers. It is also a unique venue for seminars, meetings and conferences, where 15th century inspiration combines with 21st Century innovation. ... more   less
