Lovely hotel. Very friendly, helpful staff. Ate in the beautiful restaurant,which is stunning on the first night. Website says fine dining. It was terrible. Cold food which looked like it had been steaming in a Bain Marie for a long time. Fish was bland and roast potatoes were brown and mushy inside. Mostly inedible. Only things that saved the experience were the staff and the surroundings.

Loved the hotel from the moment we arrived everyone was so helpful and friendly. I knew of the White Swan having attended school in Alnwick so never had the opportunity to stay there. The room was spacious, clean with a bath a bonus point. Plenty of coffee sachets unlike some that skimp. Timed breakfast is good and becoming more populare so that queueing isn’t really needed. The food choices were great and toast racks and individual coffee pots made it more special. We were at a couple of events in the area so made it a bit of a pilgrimage. The receptionist was helpful with suggestions for real ale pubs. And the bar staff on duty when we came back for a late night whisky suggested a local one. Had a good chat with other guests in the bar showing the friendliness Thank you we will be back to stay again. .

my room had a 2" step down into the bathroom with no clear warning sign on show. When i reported the matter as a safety issue the staff told me a sign was installed and when I checked the notice was attached to the inside of the face of the door and disappeared when the door opening. They have said they will have this checked and remedied. The bath/shower anti-slip surface is no longer anti-slip. I have suggested an anti slip mat is provided with the towels
