With 41 beautifully restored, stunning bedrooms offering the ultimate in luxury accommodation, spectacular food served in one of the finest English restaurants in Stratford, and a range of stylish function rooms for corporate and private events that offer all the charm, character and conference facilities you could ever need, The White Swan Hotel has rightly taken its place as one of the finest hotels in the region.

Quintessentially classic with a modern twist...


Located in the heart of Stratford and dating back to 1450, The White Swan Hotel is the perfect base for exploring the cultural town of Stratford and surrounding Shakespeare country. 

Grade II listed and centuries old, a tremendous sense of history emanates from every part of The White Swan. Yet after extensive yet careful renovations in 2012, now seamlessly blends the old with the new. Leaded windows, oak beams and four poster beds are juxtaposed with the latest modern conveniences, such as iPod docks, media hubs and Sky TV.  

Shakespearean quotes fit comfortably with commissioned art from local Stratford artists. Diners can enjoy a little piece of classic England with an Afternoon Tea or opt for a meal that mixes traditional English cuisine with tastes from around the world. Or how about sampling from The White Swan's range of iconic, award-winning real ales? 

This is The White Swan Hotel – awe-inspiring historical features and modern luxuries under one roof.
