I stayed in this hotel coming up from London for work on a Thursday night but got no sleep due to very noisy and constant groups of people shouting and loitering right in front of the hotel until 3am in the morning. The next morning I asked if this was normal and they basically explained that it was as it... More

This is a difficult review because this is an odd place to stay but the staff are really friendly. The hotel is in the middle of Halifax and is a good location for the centre of town. It has a certain grandeur from the outside and the service on the front desk is very friendly and informative. The rooms are... More

Very comfortable hotels, large well decorated (recently) rooms, Cosy bed, luxurious bathrooms. Excellent central location. The staff and manager were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble from parking the car to moving luggage. Would recommend without hesitation. More

A one night business stay was made very pleasurable by friendly manager and staff. Parked my car for me ,twice, when I inadvertently left luggage in it first time with no more than a pleasant smile and "that will be no trouble at all sir". Likewise lady at breakfast was very pleasant and efficient. More

Working nearby with no transportation was the reason to select this hotel, it is centrally located only 10 minutes walk to Halifax Building Society offices at Trinity Road. The hotel is very much something from yesteryear. The staff are friendly, especially the waiting staff at breakfast. The public rooms have clearly had some money spent on them, shame the budget...

This was the first time I stayed in the White Swan for 2 years, and my previous experiences was always good. Usually I've always managed to get a room at the back of the hotel, but as the hotel was full, I had a room on the first floor at the front. The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable... More
