We love staying at Swans. Its proximity to neat shops and great city walks is ideal. The suites are unique and funky, the staff are friendly and welcoming, and the room was perfectly set up with a small kitchen for preparing meals/snacks. Rooms are clean, beds are comfortable. We’ll stay here again for sure. Great value for the price.

We enjoyed this property. Pros: Well-kept property, interesting history, good location, walkable neighborhood with lots of restaurants, great view from room, comfortable bed. Cons: Parking, noise at night, stairs to bedroom area. In particular, the parking is not good. You have to park off-site, two blocks away, if you can find a space in that lot. It is also expensive to park.

It was such a friendly and comfortable place to stay. So convenient to walk around Victoria main areas from the inner harbour to China town, the mall, restaurants, Fisherman's wharf and shopping. We felt like we were in an apartment, not a hotel. The cost was acceptable for what was provided. We loved having a kitchen and a second floor loft bedroom! Just a wonderful, unique place and we would stay there again.

A fun building with little apartment style rooms. Perfect for a few days where you might want to do a small amount of cooking and groceries. Right downtown within walking distance of tons of attractions.

The staff was awesome. The rooms are incredible. We like a place with a kitchenette and Swans didn’t disappoint. In fact, room had a second floor loft for the bedroom and a view of the harbour. Laundry facilities in the building were also very convenient. Super close to Chinatown and other restaurants and shops. We walked to the harbour and along government street from our hotel. Very wonderful experience for our first time in Victoria.
