Comfortable cozy place to stay

We definitely made the right choice by choosing this hotel! It offers a warm, cozy, and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The common area downstairs is beautifully decorated, featuring fireplaces, comfortable furniture, and books—creating the perfect space to relax. One of the highlights was the complimentary wine and a variety of cheeses, adding a special touch to our stay. Our room was also wonderful, featuring a fireplace that made it even cozier. Everything was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The service was outstanding, with friendly and attentive staff ensuring a great experience. Breakfast was delightful, with fresh pastries and coffee to start the day right. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it for anyone looking for a comfortable and charming stay!

European Charmer

This is such a cozy and charming place with thoughtful considerations to decor and service. The rooms however are dated. Blinds looked grimy and were broken. Tape on windows from where it was cracked. Furniture was worn, but this is overlooked by the fireplace, incredibly comfortable bed with clean comfy sheets. They offer an actual usable bathtub, nice toiletries and have robes for guests. All of this and the character make it easy to overlook the age especially in the romantic glow of the fireplace. I prefer the personal attentive cozy environment of the common areas, the staff that White Swan offers and would happily choose this over a Hampton Inn. Other guests were pleasant and friendly. I wasn't aware that there is a separate fee for the open tea bar and coffee bar they have (which please keep milk out later for those who like it in their tea please) and the complimentary Wine Hour, but again this did make the stay more relaxing. Breakfast was simple yet served in style and really nice. Great quality.

Quirky & cosy old style hotel with very friendly staff, especially Tony on reception who was very kind to me when I checked in late 💚 Very clean & safe & a short stroll from Union Square. It was also lovely to have a proper deep bathtub.

Wonderful experience

We had a fantastic stay! The location is fantastic, with transport nearby, and the cosy, stylish rooms were perfect for winter. Afternoon wine hour was a highlight—Luis and his team were so friendly and welcoming. The only minor downside was check-in and check-out, where the front desk staff (different each time) didn’t make eye contact initially, which felt a bit impersonal. That said, it didn’t take away from an otherwise wonderful experience. We’d happily stay again!

This was a great place to stay and the location was totally walkable. The only quirk is that while breakfast was good, the only hot option was oatmeal and there was no protein option except yogurt, not even peanut butter.
