Edit:- Changing the rating as finally crystal swan did respond and I got the gifts which were supposed to be given to me. About Crystal Swan- It's like a small floating palace on the most beautiful river- Swan River. The crew is helpful, professional. They gave me two Chips when I ordered just one as there was a slight delay in delivering the order. And boy o boy, the chips are delicious. You have two dance floors with wireless headphones. What more can one ask for? I will surely be a part of another event on crystal Swan very soon. Old post:- So I attended a charity event on 21st February

Had a cruise last Friday on the crystal swan. The Ship is a quirky glass cube, Very high quality food and staff were always around making sure everyone was having a great time. The bars kept pouring drinks and made sure a surplus was always there to grab. Downstairs there was also a bar with lots of drinks and a dance floor with continuous music. there were plenty of balconies to look out on. Overall 11/10 Will go again next year. Photo attached of view from an upper balcony.

Thank you so much Crystal Swan Cruises. We had the most amazing night! From the get go your team were friendly, helpful, enthusiastic and went above and beyond to make the night a success. The decorations looked great, drink service was fantastic and the food was delicious. Most of all I want to thank your amazing team, especially Tam for all the organising and the lovely tall man who was in charge on the night (Im so sorry I dont know his name) he was instrumental in making the night the success it was. Everyone has commented that it was the best Christmas party we have had in years!! We

I had a horrible experience with Liam today . I called him yesterday letting him know about my event . Told him I will come in today to the crystal swan to meet him with my hubby to discuss the event . I go there and he is not in . Call him he tells me is is one hour away . Thats not good . No apology. Then he disconnects the phone saying then I will not see you in an hour . In today world where business are suffering . Here we have a person with no customer skills . The owner of this business please take note . He is not good for your business or to be the face for you . Could someone more

The staff are friendly but lacking in experience when it comes to pouring drinks. A simple understanding of pouring would have taken the whole experience up a notch. The food was average and portions are small. Once again, some extra training would not go astray for the staff cooking. The cruise is ok, no real sights. Be aware of the stairs as they are incredibly steep.

I'd been a DJ on board the Crystal Swan for 6 years and I always looked forward to coming on board. The team was always so accommodating and friendly and Peter and the crew were always very lovely to speak to. I sincerely hope The Crystal Swan continues to cruise along The Swan River for many years to come
