“I would definitely stay here again”
A very nice boutique hotel. The room was large and comfortable, with a great fireplace and big windows. The wine and nibbles in the afternoon, as well as the all-day coffee and tea were a great bonus.

“Fabulous.”
An oasis in the middle of the city. Quaint and quirky in a nice way. Something different from the mainstream. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Old fashioned hospitality. We loved the lounge/ dining area and the after five drinks and nibbles. A lovely touch. Rooms were well appointed.

Had a wonderful stay at the White Swan Inn, but I especially want to thank Cody for being incredibly kind and helpful on my checkout day. He let me comfortably stay in the lounge area for several hours while waiting for my flight, which made the end of my San Francisco trip so much easier and stress-free. Great hospitality, great attitude, and truly appreciated. Thank you, Cody!

“Super slightly quirky design but comfortable”
Good location slightly away from the main tourist route but close enough. Quirky style which we really liked.

“Want to come back already”
Fantastic staff who will introduce you to their favourite local restaurants, an ideal breakfast balancing healthy proteins and guilty pleasures, 24/7 coffee/tea/water, a wine and cheese happy hour (I always missed it, but when it did happen, it was great), a funky interior with fireplaces for rainy days, and a great location.

We booked the hotel for two nights; however, upon check-in, we were unable to tolerate the unhealthy conditions of the room, which was a superior suite without air conditioning or ventilation. We were offered another room, also lacking ventilation and air conditioning. The hotel has outdated infrastructure with poor maintenance, and the bed was excessively high. Additionally, as I am pregnant, we chose not to stay at the hotel. Despite this, we were still charged for one night. I do not recommend it.

“Lovely place to stay in San Francisco!”
Lovely decor and we really enjoyed the fireplaces, breakfast and end of day snacks and drinks. The old elevator is also fun!
