The Swantown Inn boasts great beds -- and it is very true that they are. Casey is a great cook and the food is wonderful, if you like cold scones. If only they would keep them warm and serve them with butter and jam. The entrees were very good. The railing going up the stairs to the rooms needed some... More

Generally I'm not keen on B&B's for many reasons including most of the time queen size beds vs. big people beds. As I looked at hotels/Inns in the area they all seemed to have average ratings, while the Swantown Inn had 5's across the board. We stayed in the Columbia Room for two nights. While I'm not big on walking... More

This place was quite nice, the breakfast was great and the beds were super comfortable, and the linens so soft. While Olympia is not my favourite destination to travel to, this Inn made it great.

The food each morning was so good, that I wish I would have asked for the recipes. Also, the innkeepers were so nice and gave us some great suggestions for dinner. If you like b&b’s or would like to try a b&b, this is a great place to go. While you are there, get a massage at their day spa... More

Thanks for the nice review! Let me point out though that you don't need to pay more for an attached bathroom. The Columbia Room (which has a large private bathroom across the hall) is the same price as the Percival Room (which has an attached bathroom). We hope to see you back again soon! More

My boyfriend and I stayed here several months ago. Although it's been a while, we can say that our time here was excellent. Nathan and Casey are the best (Nathan is very sociable and loves to talk to the guests over breakfast). They really enjoy what they do and it shows in their above and beyond service. Our room was...

First time to Olympia, and we really enjoyed the weekend. Nathan's recommendations for dining were spot on, and Casey's breakfasts were outstanding. The Attic Day Spa topped it off for a great weekend getaway!
