Olympia Hotels are what they are, nothing spectacular, friendly staff, generic hotel rooms. Hotels and motels meet a certain need, but for the more discerning traveler a bed and breakfast can offer all hotel does plus more!

Here is a list of various reasons why we think you will enjoy a stay at our bed and breakfast more than a hotel or motel.

1. Our rates are comparable and sometimes cheaper than the hotels in Olympia. Especially during the summer.
2. Just like a hotel we offer the government per diem Sunday to Thursday, Military Discounts (on stays of two or more nights), a discounts on stays of five or more nights in length.
3. Unlike Olympia Hotels, we serve a three course gourmet breakfast each day of your stay. Beats a buffet any day!
4. We have some of the most comfortable beds (all king size!) in Olympia. Don’t believe us though read the independent reviews on TripAdvisor or BedandBreakfast.com.
5. We are as good if not better than any hotel concierge or front desk person when it comes to helping you make the most out of your time in Olympia and the area. We send you to the best restaurants, events, parks, and scenic drives. We pride ourselves on mailing sure you have the experience you were looking for.
6. We have an on site Day Spa, The Attic Day Spa. No Olympia Hotel can claim that!
7. Free cookies! Homemade chocolate chip cookies, lovingly made by Casey the Innkeeper.
8. Your spending your money with a local business. We appreciate it so much! You support our local business and in turn we try and support other local businesses wherever possible too.

We are not saying we are perfect, we are not saying we are for everyone. Sometimes people like the anonymity of a hotel. We however think we are a better way to stay, and join the nationwide movement letting people know why a B&B stay is superior to a hotel or motel.

Rent a room from the Swantown Inn B&B and go and see Rent at the Capital Playhouse. In our experience their shows are just as good quality (if not better) than the bigger theaters up north. Act now as the season is drawing to a close.

We still have limited room for Arts walk weekend. Come on down Friday night (or Thursday if you can) and stay until Sunday to experience some of the best of Olympia’s art community. There is art absolutely all over the place downtown. the farmers market is back in to swing again. All round a great time to experience all of Olympia.

To top it all off you have the Procession of the Species. Now in its 16th year you cannot miss this!

Leave the car at the Inn and explore downtown at its’ finest.

You still have time to book a romantic getaway, day spa package, or couples massage for Valentines Day weekend.

We offer a few different choices.

1. Day Spa Package: You get a night in one of our guest rooms, a couples massage topped off by a gourmet breakfast. (from $277 plus tax)
2. Romantic Getaway: Over Valentines Day weekend unless you are taking the Day Spa Package we have a two night minimum at the Bed and Breakfast.  Pair this with either massages, one of our romantic dinner recommendations, or a night at the theater, and you will have a memorable gift for your loved one. (Two nights from $238 plus tax)
3. Couples massage: We still have very limited availability for couples massage in the Attic Day Spa, which is one of the best reviewed Day Spas in the Olympia area. For independent reviews see Spa Finder. (From $198)

Here is what a couple who just left us after two nights in our Astoria Room and massages in the Day Spa;

“Life gets so hectic most of the time. My partner lives in Aberdeen and I live here in Olympia (5 minutes away max). I thought she was crazy for picking a place for us to totally relax and rekindle our life. Now that I have been here the last two nights in this beautiful nostalgic home I can’t thank her enough. We will be back. Nathan and Casey thank you for the delicious breakfasts and hospitality. Your daughter is a little cutie. Ahh and the spa is beyond words. See you in the near future.” – MJ and Laura

We strive to make everyone’s experience as good as this. Whether you are local in Olympia, or bit further away in Portland or Seattle, we believe you can create a wonderful memory here at our Inn.

Olympia was featured in this month’s Sunset magazine as a great place in the Northwest for a day trip. The one page article highlighted shopping and dining. Unfortunately they skipped accommodations. No worries though as that is where we come in! We offer downtown Olympia’s best reviewed lodging.

Our little town has way too much to see and experience in one day. So take Sunset’s suggestions and add in some of ours and you can easily spend three or four days! From restaurants and cafes, live theater and film, to our diverse downtown shopping, Olympia is well known to locals, but still a hidden gem for those even an hour or two away.
