10/10 Exceptional

We love staying at Swans. Its proximity to neat shops and great city walks is ideal. The suites are unique and funky, the staff are friendly and welcoming, and the room was perfectly set up with a small kitchen for preparing meals/snacks. Rooms are clean, beds are comfortable. We’ll stay here again for sure. Great value for the price.

A charming piece of history that feels like home

The Swans hotel is lovely, it feels like staying in a piece of history. Having an entire apartment available is really nice as a family, there was plenty of room for everyone and a full size kitchen. The pub downstairs is great, the food options are wonderful to have, though there is so much food in the area you would be remiss to not explore a bit. The only downside we experienced is that it was unseasonably warm and the main room did not have any windows. Fans were provided, which did help as long as we left the bedroom door open.
Nathan, 2-night trip

Very cozy little hotel

Lovely little place, the suite we stayed in was well furnished and extremely cute, really easy to get in and out, and it's just a short walk down the street from a parkade. The room did get quite hot and unfortunately there wasn't a lot we could do beyond opening windows.

The staff members were excellent. Enjoyed having a local coffee shop just around the corner…Bean Coffee.

Lovely Boutique Hotel

Alway luv our greetings when we get there. Very friendly. Great location. Rooms are large, great pillows. No AC, so if it is hot out, prepare for a cozy evening. Fans are in rooms though. Will stay again and again. Cheers

Great location close to everything downtown. Felt like we stayed at home.

Gem

Check in was seamless and they stored our baggage when we arrived early. The room was large and very clean with a full kitchen. The hotel was located close to all the action at the harbor without being right in the high foot and car traffic zone. Had a beer in the pub and service and prices were great. We will definitely stay again.
