The desserts took 35 minutes to reach us. The bar staff did not clear the empty glasses and bottles. The men's toilet was bad: black mold on the walls, lime deposits on the toilet handle, and a strong urine smell!

The staff have all changed going from lovely, relaxed and friendly people to people who don't really seem to care, and the food used to be absolutely fantastic but they seem to have changed their quality of ingredients and the food now it not good at all.

But not at all for food. I just don't understand as it is always rammed, so they should make enough money to buy good ingredients... If they could go back to the way they used to be, it would be a full on 5 stars.

It was a short uber ride from the airport, and the place was SO cozy and perfect. We ate the best fish and chips of our lives at the restaurant and then hopped over (across the hall) to the pub for a few drinks before walking right up the stairs and going to bed. The bed was comfortable (although Americans- take note that a king size bed in the US is much bigger than a UK King. I'd say the UK king was closer to a queen). There was a gorgeous coffee/tea setup with a Nespresso machine and pods, an electric kettle, some teabags, and chocolates to pair with the coffee. We had a balcony overlooking the river which was gorgeous! Everything about this place was cozy, cute, and felt so English.

Hoping, but not expecting, and this is the perfect way to go through life: Set your expectations low and watch your happiness meter rise. The Swan Hotel is a 16th century place of lodging sitting right beside the Thames. It's been refurbished to a stylish, immaculate inn with both a pub and a restaurant. Staines isn't a hotbed of activity so hanging out in the pub then stumbling up to your room is a very comforting plan. While it's true that a ball placed on the floor of my room would have rolled on its own (remember, 16th century building) it's also true that my room was a dream. With its luxurious bedding, mattress (1600 individual pocket spring mattress), and a French door that opened up to a tiny balcony overlooking the Thames River I'd have enjoyed staying longer. That such charm can be had for so little (rooms here can be had for about $125 per night) brings joy. The Swan Hotel is a Fuller property, a name I saw several times during my time in the UK. Based on my all-around excellent experience here I'd not just seek to stay here again but I'd also seek out other Fuller properties when returning to visit the rest of the UK.

This little mom 'n' pop restaurant serves Japanese (sushi and sashimi), Chinese (dumplings), and Malaysian cuisine (Laksa, etc.). I asked and the chef is apparently ethnically Chinese, but grew up partly in Japan and spent 15 years in the restaurant industry there. My server (the chef's sister-in-law and I'm guessing also a/the proprietor) spoke fluent Mandarin, and when I revealed that I spoke Mandarin as well, she immediately recommended the pork dumplings. (At first she had simply said that everything was good.) The pork dumplings were indeed good. Very similar to what I enjoyed in northern China. Just be aware, that while advertised as plain dumplings, they came out pan-fried on the bottom, like pot-stickers. I tried the salmon & tuna sashimi, which was very fresh, soft, and delicious. Finally, I tried the laksa with udon noodles. They warned me that it would be a little bit spicy. I said a little spicy to medium spicy is ok... It came out with almost no heat. I finished the whole bowl and my lips barely tingled. I'm from southern California, so maybe I'm used to spicier things and their spice levels have been adjusted for the local palate. I'd say this was the only somewhat disappointing dish I tried, but it was still good. Maybe next time I'd just ask for it hotter or with hot sauce on the side. And I got the goji berry tea, which was served with rock sugar. I didn't ask if other sweetener options were available, but if you require others you might want to come prepared. They do have some vegetarian options. I was tempted by one of their salads, but that will have to wait until my next visit. As other commenters have mentioned, the decor is kitschy and cozy, and I might even add entertaining. There was a knit art installation filling the entire main window. The proprietor was delightful. Eavesdropped kitchen banter was happy, adding to the cozy atmosphere. If I lived in Staines, I would come here all the time. [By the way, you might think the place is named after the book 'Momo' by Michael Ende (author of The Neverending Story), of which there are copies in several languages on one of their bookshelves. But I asked and it's not. It's just a word that's easy to remember and pronounce and has positive or neutral meanings in several Asian languages.]
