I regularly use this this hotel and Lorraine and Alan make you feel really welcome. A cup of tea on arrival after a busy day in the office is always a good start to the evening. The rooms are comfortable and breakfast always prepares you for the rigours of the day. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the... More

I stayed twice in this B&B hotel while I was visiting the Plymouth University, lasting totally more than one month. I found the Swinton hotel to be a welcoming, very comfortable and clean place to stay. Lovely house in a central location close to the train station and the university. Great breakfasts to start the day. Alan and Lorraine are... More

This relatively inexpensive guesthouse is a really great place to stay. Not only is the standard of cleaning extremely high, the breakfast delicious and freshly prepared, but the owners are both very warm and friendly people who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. There are much "posher" hotels in Plymouth, but this one is a real... More

Not knowing Plymouth very well at all, I was met from the train station (as it was late at night) and walked safely to the 'home from home' B&B. The service I received really was excellent. Both...

An excellent base from which to enjoy all of the Plymouth area. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the town centre, but also near main roads to take you into the countryside. Lorraine and Alan are great hosts with a wealth of local knowledge, either places to eat or the weather! Very clean accommodation with great breakfasts. We'll... More

After searching on line, and having some difficulty to find a suitable hotel or B&B, we finally found the Swinton Hotel in Plymouth. And we are so glad we did - a wonderful friendly place to stay, short term or long term. There are more choices in the town, closer to the sea front, but we needed to be fairly... More

We had a lovely warm welcome and were made to feel at home by Lorraine and Alan. A friendly and relaxed atmosphere, with warm clean rooms, and a great breakfast. The hotel is close to the station, university and city centre, so perfect. Look forward to staying again.
