Top Great Haywood Hotel Reviews

The Swan Hotel, Stafford, Staffordshire

The Swan Hotel, Stafford, Staffordshire

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel in the centre of Stafford. Nice restaurant/ bar setting. Didn’t eat there but wine was good quality and reasonably priced. Room was reasonable. Bit tired looking but generally to a good standard. View wasn’t great (brick wall) but that’s no-one’s fault. Bed was firm, pillows soft. Good TV and hot drink making facilities. Breakfast was faultless along with very good polite service. Would stay again."

Drayton Manor Hotel

8/10 Good
"Nice rooms with room for 3/4 fairly comfortably but a bit old fashioned. Nice bathroom with powerful shower. Ideal stay for families, though couples without children may find the brasserie areas rather noisy and chaotic. Menu also limited and geared to families. Excellent breakfast! Most staff are very friendly and helpful, though problems at check in due to staff mistakes. Advertised as Free Paking, but apparently only if booked directly with the hotel. Often no staff at the bar and so long wait."
