My stay at The Manor at Sway was a mixed experience. The rooms were very pleasant with an extremely comfortable bed which was much appreciated as I was suffering from a bad back. However, they were a bit on the chilly side. I did like the REN toiletries, decent tea and coffee, and the proper blackout curtains. Having a fan in the room was a nice touch.

The staff at The Manor at Sway were so friendly, helpful, and professional. They dealt well with a high number of complaints about the ox-cheek disaster, although they took quite some time to open the bar despite the staff being present behind the bar. The laundry service was efficient, and the welcome drink was a nice gesture.

The location of the hotel was well laid out with good views over the garden. The surroundings are amazing, and the staff are lovely, helpful, and welcoming. I had an excellent evening meal during my stay. It is important to note that the area is known to be expensive with limited dining options, but it is near everything you need in the New Forest and close to the station. It's in a quiet village, making it an easy place from which to explore The Forest.

I loved my stay at the hotel! The room was small but pleasant, and we were welcomed with some lovely treats. The comfortable bed made it perfect for enjoying a drink while watching the sunset. The service was impeccable, with friendly staff and thoughtful gestures like a welcome drink. The location was great for exploring the local area, though dining options were limited. The dining experience, while average, offered delicious salads. Overall, a charming stay with a few minor drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, although spacious, were a little noisy and could use some freshening up. The location was slightly misleading, but it was convenient for exploring the New Forest and the Coast. The dining was disappointing for the extra cost incurred, but the staff provided warm and professional service. However, the hotel's proximity to the railway station was a plus for easy access to nearby attractions.
