Swantown Inn

Olympia's Bed & Breakfast Retreat

Swantown Inn is an 1887 Queen Anne/Eastlake Victorian Mansion listed on both the city and state historical registers. Although historic it features modern amenities such as room-controlled heat and air conditioning, EV charging, and great Wi-Fi. Located in a quiet neighborhood in the heart of Olympia, Washington, our bed and breakfast can be your headquarters for exploring the Puget Sound region or your refuge to escape from it all. Swantown Inn features The Grand Victorian Ballroom, an intimate space that is available for special events including weddings, reunions, corporate meetings, board retreats, educational seminars and yoga retreats.
