About The Swan Hotel
The Swan Hotel is a small, traditional property on Watling Street in central Milton Keynes, holding just ten rooms and a straightforward, unfussy character. It's the kind of place built for practicality rather than grandeur, with a low-key feel that suits guests passing through rather than settling in for a special occasion.
Rooms are simply furnished with flat-screen TVs, and guests have access to free WiFi throughout. Downstairs, the restaurant and bar double as a casual sports venue, complete with a pool table, making it a relaxed spot for a drink or a bite rather than a formal dining experience. Breakfast is available on-site, and other facilities include a lift, a garden, luggage storage, meeting rooms, and a spa and sauna. The hotel also hosts weddings and welcomes pets, and free on-site parking is provided.
Its central Milton Keynes position puts guests within reach of the town's transport links and key attractions, making it a convenient base for both business stays and short visits. It's a no-frills option that covers the essentials well.

What guests say
Good cheap and cheerful hotel; outstanding value for money. Good parking, central location. Old building but loads of money being spent on refurbishment as all the upstairs and rooms have been recently redecorated. Helpful and nice staff, small independent business. Good pub wreck bis essentially a sports bar so good if you like that sort of thing. Good range of beers, dtinks and several decent cask ales which are my favourite. A good boozer very popular with locals. Personally I think it's not as good for tourists but perfectly good place if you are on a budget. The very cheap rates include a very satisfying simple cooked breakfast, toast, tea and coffee and fruit juice

I was down here from Leeds for a work trip and stayed here last minute after being let down by another hotel. The staff here were amazing and made us feel very welcome. The room was very clean and comfortable. Definitely recommend to anyone in the area.
