Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Comfortable room one block from the historic downtown shops & restaurants, next to marina & across from NW Maritime Center. Second floor had a nice view; no elevator, but the stairs aren’t as steep as at a couple of other historic inns in town. Fitness center is 1 block away, but this is a great town for a “walking work out”- through town, up the stairs to uptown, along the waterfront.

We stayed in the top floor apartment penthouse. Very clean, comfortable and up to date. Spectacular water views. Only downside, no elevator is somewhat of a problem if a person has mobility issues. Otherwise highly recommend.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay in the Penthouse, it is a favorite space in the hotel! With a vintage hotel we are not able to add an elevator but we do have options such as the cottages and the first floor rooms that have either a ramp or minimal stairs. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

The second floor room was comfortable for a two-night stay. The bay was visible from the side window. Enjoyed having the mini-fridge for leftovers from the restaurants. It's a good location for walking around the historic downtown area and starting out on the cicmahan trail. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice cozy ground level cottage near downtown made 3 nights in PT enjoyable as you can easily walk to restaurants and movie house. Staff very accommodating for check-in and also called us on the way out to remind us of a left item. Would be a good place to stay if you have kayaks as the launch is across the street.

Dulanie E wrote a review Nov 2022
I'd always wanted to stay at the Swan, and finally got the chance ... for two weeks. My husband and I were renovating a rental property and needed a home base. We stayed in one of the hotel rooms, which was really comfortable and had a nifty kitchenette with microwave & refrigerator - so we could bring leftovers from restaurants and have them another night. The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is at the harbor in the downtown area, so walkable to most places. Across the street in the Marine Center there is a coffee house, Velocity, that serves great coffee and pastries from Pain d'Amor. Next visit we'll stay in one of the cottages, which have jacuzzi tubs & electric fireplaces!

I booked one of the cabins at the Swan Hotel in Port Townsend at a friend's recommendation. They did not disappoint. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The cabin was very warm and comfortable with all the accommodations one would want from a hotel. The location is right in downtown Port Townsend. I definitely plan to stay at the Swan Hotel again in the future!

A great spot close to downtown with great views and a spacious room. The room was very comfortable and well laid out. The staff is excellent, and they had excellent communication with me as I was arriving after hours.

We enjoyed our stay at The Swan Hotel last weekend. The hotel is right at the edge of town with the ability to walk to restaurants and shops. We also strolled out to the Marina from our room and walked along the beach. The room had a comfortable bed, fridge, microwave, and small Keurig with plenty of coffee! There is also a coffee shop right across the street if you want a fancier cup of joe. Would definitely stay here again.

The cabin I stayed in was charming and very comfortable. The front desk lady was so very helpful and concerned about my comfort, bringing in a radiant heater for back up warmth in case the fireplace and temperature settings on the auxiliary heat did not keep me warm enough. It was completely toasty. Enjoyed the walk around the harbor to the Hudson's Bay Cafe for breakfast and the easy access to the maritime center across the street. Will have to take advantage of the free use of the athletic club that comes with the room across the other street next time. On the whole my stay was memorable for unique treatment and comfort. Can't wait until next time.
