5/5 Excellent
"The Swan Hotel in Bedford was beautiful the bedroom and bathroom was very clean, there was tea & coffee in the rooms, shower gel and shampoo in the bathroom provided. The Spa was amazing with all different well-being jets in the pool and the steam and Finish rooms were great. I really recommend you try the Spa at this lovely hotel and the amazing Anna's afternoon tea in all 10/10👍"
