The Black Swan Inn - Pickering

Just come back from our third stay in The Black Swan in Pickering. Cannot wait to go back again. We stay in pub, hotels etc on a regular basis, this is one of the best we stay in. Yes I have read the bad reviews, goodness me some people really need to travel/get out more. Rooms spotless, warm and cosy, (even the spooky one, lol) The staff and owners cant do enough to make your stay pleasurable. If you have any life changing problems like your beans at breakfast not to your liking, say so, I guarantee it will be sorted. Cannot praise enough. Go for a visit, you 'll have a lovely time. MERRY CHRISTMAS. Xxxx

Great atmosphere, good drinks, didn't eat here, but weird opening hours !! Service: 4 Location: 4

Our room was lovely, spotless .modern understated decor ,comfy bed& pillows, nice shower room , complimentary shower gel , shampoo, conditioner and moisturising lotion had a mini bar but also a great selection of drinks free of charge , lovely big cups and glasses ,not those 2 sips and it's gone type , Bar food was very nice. Out door seating area was brilliant, with heaters ,and sheltered . It's an old inn so obviously stairs and steps , nooks and crannies , room had adjustable heating . We had a lovely stay, the staff were excellent. And breakfast delicious. Will stay again in a heartbeat

Booked for a meal on a Saturday night and despite it being extremely busy staff were very prompt, friendly and attentive. Liked the quirky decor and atmosphere. We both had pies and they were very tasty also selection of few different beers brewed on site was bonus! will be visiting again. Service: 5 Location: 5

Excellent Hotel, we stayed for a weekend break, the room was first class, as were the fixtures and fittings The staff and owners were warm and welcoming nothing was too much trouble. The breakfasts were excellent as was the evening meal which we had on the day of our arrival. There was also excellent secure parking at the rear of the hotel. We would definitely recommend this hotel. Jill and Bob November 2023 Noteworthy details: Good local products were used for meals, the beer was brewed in house and locally.
