Swan Hotel By Greene King Inns, Alton (Hampshire)

The hotel is perfectly located in the middle of the high street, offering convenience and ample parking, but there have been some slipping standards. The rooms are small but recently upgraded, with a comfortable bed, though could use better ventilation. The service was excellent overall, especially during Christmas, but there were some hiccups with the scrambled eggs. The location is ideal for access to shops, the railway station, and other amenities, though traffic restrictions can be inconvenient. The dining options were somewhat lacking, with delays and limited choices, but the Greek traditional products were satisfactory.

The hotel has a lovely decor in the rooms, but lacks privacy during housekeeping and the inconvenience of no Wi-Fi despite prior requests. The service is friendly, especially Darryl at the reception and during breakfast. The location is noisy without A/C but convenient for local attractions. The dining experience falls short with delays and limited items. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.

I had a mixed stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and warm, with a tall bed and snuggly duvet, but they were extremely hot which impacted my sleep quality. The room looked a bit smaller and tired, and unfortunately, I had noisy neighbors who decided to party for nearly 2 hours, making it hard to relax.
