Lovely, eclectic B&B. Staff were welcoming and available for questions. Room spacious; bed/mattress super comfortable. Super clean. Only downsides: no air conditioning (it was a warm weekend), and my husband would have liked a room safe. Regardless, I will gladly stay here in future!

We loved our stay at this quirky little inn. The fireplace in our room was lovely as was the charm of the old building and decor. The continental breakfast was great as well! The biggest downfall here was that valet parking was the only option, and it was pretty pricy. Overall, we were very pleased with our experience!

I really loved my stay. It was a last minute booking when my trip got extended and I was really pleased with the location, the funky decor and the service. The wine and cheese hour in the evening is such a nice touch too. Would absolutely stay again when visiting downtown SF.

Cool funky chic hotel, has an elevator from the 20s that you open the doors manually... fireplace in room.... only complaint would be no A/C in the summer and the mattress was a bit worn, not firm enough.

Great location, a few block off of Union Square so it’s quieter, but close enough to shopping if you need it. Wonderful rooms, friendly staff and delicious breakfast. We’ve already booked our next stay!

Had amazing time in the hotel with my daughter. Staff is very helpful and kind. Breakfast was really good - everything you need. Appreciated lady Jemma in the breakfast area ( most likely mispronounced her name) - super kind and nice. Our room was vert spacious. Wine serving is incredible. Very classy and cozy hotel which is really difficult to find nowadays

I really enjoyed my time at White Swan Inn. I reached out the week of my stay for an early check-in and was grateful for a quick response! I was fortunate they were able to accommodate me and check in was quick and easy. I used the valet service as well which is not cheap but was super convenient and in my opinion, worth the money! I would definitely stay here again.
