What an amazing find ! Swann House is located in a safe and conveinent location. It was clean, staff could not have been more friendly & helpful. I loved the self serve ice water, coffee & tea service and breakfast. I am very picky about my coffee and it was great. The lobby area is inviting and after a very long walk on a hot & humid day we cooled off in the pool. So nice :)
I am in DC often and will absolutely be back.
We absolutely loved our stay at Swann House. The hotel is impeccably designed. It rooms were comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly and very accommodating. Breakfast was lovely. We can’t wait to go back.
Very clean, updated, comfortable room. Short walk to Dupont Circle metro. Staff very friendly and helpful. Thank you Kaylin and staff for a great weekend!
Adorable inn with a focus on design and hospitality. Kaylin the innkeeper does everything in her power to make your stay special. The common spaces are stunning. We had the pool to ourselves and it was perfect for relaxing during the day. We stayed in room 4: beautiful space, nice wet room and deck.
Bring an eye mask if you’re sleeping in this room, early morning light comes in strong from a couple of smaller windows without blinds.
The host was amazing, and was able to allow us to check in early. Which is exactly what we needed after a red eye flight. We thought the location was wonderful, very central to lots of lovely spots. My partner and I want to come back and stay here again because it was so lovely.
The Swann House is a very luxurious and comfortable bed and breakfast. It is in an excellent location within walking distance to numerous restaurants and amenities.
Clean, comfortable, and quiet -- Swann House, centrally located for our needs, was our oasis of rest in this busy city! The Turret Room (Room 2,) was perfect for our visit to DC. It’s small, but just right for travelers like us who needed a quiet room for rest and regeneration after spending the day visiting family and seeing the sights. The shower was fantastic! Leeann was very gracious and accommodating, and the extra pillows we requested for our stay were cloud soft and supportive. The complimentary continental breakfast was just right with a varied selection of grain and grain-free granolas, dry cereal, fresh fruit, delicious fresh baked goods, and hot coffee and teas. Refreshments were also available in the Common Area Coffee Nook 24/7, along with delightful Swann House short bread cookies for a snack. Swann House is across the street from the S Street dog park. If you enjoy the antics of dogs at play, this will provide all the entertainment you need from the comfort of your room (much better than anything on TV!). We look forward to staying at Swann House on our next trip to DC. I just hope we can get a reservation!
Beautifully designed property in walking distance to so much (bring your walking shoes)! Comfortable beds and good breakfast (toast muffins hard boiled eggs fruit and yogurt) to grab before going out for the day. We absolutely loved our stay!!!
