No hot water and no service delivery recovery.
No hot or event warm water in the early mornings
A first for us but things go wrong,
and although disappointing and very inconvenient I can accept that this can happen.
What I cannot accept is the radio silence. It’s now 36 hours since checking out and reporting this to the morning staff (who said they knew about the problem) and would tell the management.
But NO acknowledgment AT ALL. No apology.. nothing. So I write this report to accompany our stay.
I swerved the travelodge to give the local ‘up scale’ (their words!) establishment a chance but they let themselves down. Avoid.

I arrived at the Swan Thatcham at 7.30pm and I was informed on the arrival that my booking was cancelled 3 hour earlier and an email was sent.
The reason of cancellation was a wasp net found in a room!!! I have not received any email and I had to find a hotel not to be left on the street for the night. Not a nice experience.

Fine for what we required. The staff were friendly. The rooms and public areas could benefit from updating. The bath and shower in rooms 1 & 2 are very small . Low height for shower so not ideal for anyone over about 5'8" tall

Was just a stopover on a motorcycle road trip and the Swan was perfectly fine stop clean and all I needed with out of the way parking for the bike.
Staff were nice and helpful, had an OK, average breakfast in the morning.
I also ate here the evening of my stay and this was not great, perhaps between chefs 🤔

Covenant stop over
The swan is situated next to a rail line/station and this is busy line with a crossing with gates and an alarm to notify drivers of the gate closing. All necessary for safety and by no means the fault of the swan, but made for a noisy stay.
Room was fine and clean but would not choose to stay again. Lots of workman staying. restaurant on site so handy for meals.
