The website for this hotel gives the impression of spacious grounds right on the water with spectacular views. In actuality the bay is across the street and the view you get of the water is past the boat club and harbor (and soon to be museum). The grounds are incredibly small with parking for about 5 cars and the cottages... more

The Swan is a very quaint, old facility right next to the boat docks at the edge of town. The buildings are old, but are well maintained. Our room had a slight musty smell, but I would have expected worse given it location next to the water and with high amount of precipitation in the region. The "deluxe spa amenities"... more

Very Clean and comfortable. Great location at the end of Water Street, you can walk to all the shopping and restaurants. There are a couple nice restaurants behind the hotel, at the docks. We stayed in A1 on the first floor, and you can hear the people walking above. If you like to sleep in I'd pay the extra $20... more

We thought Port Townsend was pretty charming and definitely enjoyed our stay at the Swan for one night. The room was not that remarkable but it was clean and comfortable. We stayed in the main building on the second floor and there was no view from our room. The location was great, right at the end of the main downtown... more

Very nice place---very close to harbour and marina and right on the end of the main street - very short walk to all the quaint shops, cafes and pubs on main street and easy walk to historic buildings and architecture. The hotel itself is very clean, and well maintained in a unique building. Disagree with review about "sheds" and "cabbage".... more

We are newlyweds and took a mini-honeymoon up in Port Townsend. We loved it. We stayed in Cottage 4 at the Swan with our Golden Retriever. It was very clean and since it was "pet-friendly" I was glad that it had hardwood floors. It is definetly older but the bed was comfortable and we didn't spend much time in the... more

We chose this hotel mainly because it was the least chintzy of the ones we could find in Port Townsend. The hotel is set up like a motel with rooms around the car park. The little balconies are nice but I'm glad we didn't pay extra for a view- none of the views were very spectacualr and the majority were... more

I picked the Swan because of the recommendations of Tripadvisor's other reviews AND the descriptions at the Swan's web site. While had no specific problem, I did not feel that the Swan lived up to my expectations based upon its written description. Personally, I don't consider it to be a romantic lodging as described. Our second floor had a nice... more

Wife and I had a biz trip to Seattle. We decided to go check out Pt.Townsend for a few days ahead of the biz. This is a great little town, beautiful scenery, wonderful shops, etc.. Go check out nearby Ft.Worden where they filmed "Officer & A Gentleman". The Swan Hotel was an excellent place to stay. We got Cottage No.... more

I stayed in one of the cottages. It was nice and clean, newly remodeled at the time of my visit. The hotel staff was very pleasant. The only issue was that the bathroom walls do not go all the way to the ceiling. Any noise in the bathroom is readily heard throughout the rest of the unit. Overall my stay... more
