This hotel was dirty, in need of repair and in need of staff. The pipes in the bathroom rattled and made a terrible noise when you turned the taps on, even gently. The room was cold and we had to ask twice for extra blankets. I definate ly would not stay in any Swallow Hotel again and would not recommend... More

I stayed here last month with two colleagues on business last month. There is no denying that this hotel needs some TLC, non of the decor matches, there was a boogie wiped on the wall in the lift and mold growing over the swimming pool but . . . .It kind of has an eccentric charm to it, the staff...

Stayed here while visiting friends in Preston and was very impressed with the location and staff in the hotel. However, the cleanliness of the hotel was dire and let everything else down completely! Everywhere was generally old, worn down and dirty. Fortunately the bed linen and towels were clean, which was good but that was all. Everything else seem to... More

Food was excellent, breakfast was choose your own - brilliant - room comfortable and lovely and clean although some re-decoration would be good. Staff were friendly & helpful and hard working. swimming pool was gorgeous and warm. Didn't have time to use the spa but heard other people saying good things about it.

This review is only rating the hotel as the staff were very polite and helpful. The place is in desperate need of a total makeover. Chipped paint, dirty carpets, cobwebs everywhere and the general feeling that the place should be closed for a total refurb. It's a shame really, as the location is good, the price is acceptable, the breakfast... More
