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.

A nice mid range hotel. Visitors should know that parking is difficult to find for a reasonable price. Also, in our particular unit the steps to the bedroom is over 20. The only washroom is on the bottom floor so quite difficult at night. The heat was oppressive, since there is no air con and the windows do not open easily and cannot be left open since they open into the rooms, are quite large and have no sceens. The staff were wonderful and efficient.

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.

We enjoyed this property. Pros: Well-kept property, interesting history, good location, walkable neighborhood with lots of restaurants, great view from room, comfortable bed. Cons: Parking, noise at night, stairs to bedroom area. In particular, the parking is not good. You have to park off-site, two blocks away, if you can find a space in that lot. It is also expensive to park.

It was such a friendly and comfortable place to stay. So convenient to walk around Victoria main areas from the inner harbour to China town, the mall, restaurants, Fisherman's wharf and shopping. We felt like we were in an apartment, not a hotel. The cost was acceptable for what was provided. We loved having a kitchen and a second floor loft bedroom! Just a wonderful, unique place and we would stay there again.
