The Swan Hotel

Right downtown with parking but quiet with a lovely view of the harbor and sound. Worth the extra $30 for a view room. Reasonable priced, clean, comfortable bed and pillows. Great location. We will stay here again. I don't know why it merits just a "2 star" rating. Old building?

The staff is very friendly. The rooms are clean but dated. For a one night stay, and close to the ferry terminal, it wasn’t bad. Suggest the carpet on the ramp be replaced. The rooms had coffee service, which is nice first thing in the morning. We had breakfast at the Hudson Cafe, which is highly recommended. We had dinner at Alchemy which was pretty good.

My husband and I stayed one night at the Swan Hotel after sailing from Olympia to Port Townsend. It is across the street from the maritime center, a block from the marina, walkable to good restaurants, shops and bakeries. The Swan building itself is historic and charming. Our room was clean and bright, nicely furnished and set up with a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Wonderful shower! It was a bit of a splurge for us but entirely worth it.

This hotel is in a great location, but it is a touch unloved. We stayed in the main part (not in one of the little cottages) and there is a wooden ramp that is in need of some repairs. Ditto for the two flights of exterior wooden stairs that lead to the third floor where our room was located. Once you climb the stairs to the third floor you will discover a wonderful view of the water which is a delightful place to sit and relax. There were two couples and the big room on the third floor accommodated us beautifully. In fact there is a loft available so even more could stay in that big room. We could have cooked there if we had wanted to. But we chose to eat in town. We were able to park our car and walk everywhere so it was an ideal choice for us.

Nice room with a view. The best in room coffee k pods I've come across traveling. Right in town so you can walk everywhere. lots to do right there with the Pt Hudson Marina next door, the Maritime Museum, Whale Watching tours and walking through downtown Port Townsend.

The Swan Hotel is on the quiet end of down-town across from the NW Maritime Center, Center for Wooden Boat Building and a literal stone's throw from the marina, which I think is the nicest end of town to stay in (Easy stroll to all of downtown, the beach, as well as the "upper part"). We stayed in the main hotel 2nd floor ("no view"). The room was clean, decent sized, with a reasonably up-to-date bathroom, a microwave and a coffeemaker. The hotel has walk-around decks rather than hall-ways which double as balconies (w 2 adirondack chairs). No elevator though. Parking is dedicated but tight.
