We enjoyed the historic home. We stayed in the Astoria room and loved it. Very roomy and quiet. Bedding was very nice. There is no TV in room but that was fine with us. We walked the neighborhood and then took advantage of the jacuzzi in our room.

Great place to stay! Breakfast was delicious! Hosts were awesome. The only thing I would change is to have a coffee station before the 9:00 breakfast. I’m ready for coffee at 7:00! Also, our AC didn’t work great but it was still an awesome stay!

Trad B&B in a historic home.

The inn is conveniently located on a quiet side street just minutes from the downtown area. The hosts were super—friendly and welcoming. Gave recommendations for where to have dinner, and local sights.

Idyllic Getaway

This beautiful inn was the perfect way to treat myself for a Mother’s Day getaway! The room was clean, comfortable, and even set to my ideal temperature. The owner was very friendly and gave great recommendations of what to do around town. Breakfast and coffee were delicious and homemade. Overall, it was five-star experience! I loved it so much I booked another stay as soon as I got home!

Best bed and breakfast in Olympia!

We came here for our wedding night and had an exceptional time. The owners Nathan and Casey went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. The hotel is a a late 19th Century masterpiece. Blending Victorian and craftsman style architecture perfectly. Absolutely will be staying here again in the future. Highly recommend booking through their website though instead of here because they have better rates direct!

Like staying with family, but better

Exceptional doesn’t even scratch the surface on how perfect of an experience this stay was. The property, building and rooms were breathtakingly gorgeous and charming. The inn-taker and family were so welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was delicious and they were able to accommodate our food allergies. Our room was GORGEOUS. This Inn is truly a gem. I highly recommend staying. We will definitely be back ❤️

I wanted to take a moment to thank the proprietors of Swantown Inn (and let Expedia know how charming this place is!) I had a warm and social experience that felt like a breath of fresh air post-pandemic. My room was spacious and beautiful (it's a rambling old building, lots of history - a little worn down but in a charming way) but the standout experience was coming down for breakfast and meeting the owners and other guests. The food was delicious but the conversation was revelatory - most places to stay don't offer the same connection and communal experience. The proprietors had great recommendations for dinner and things to do in Olympia and Oregon, and I was able to easily walk from the location to the historic district, which has great record stores, book stores, and history if you're an indie rock nerd like me. If you're trying to get to the capitol building, the walk may be a little longer. Staying here and exploring Olympia was a highlight of my trip - thank you!
