Providence Hospital Tours and Activities

Excellent location and a few blocks walking distance to the White House. We were tired and hungry upon check-in and didn't want to leave the premise to look for a place to eat. We were both pleasantly surprised to discover the on-site restaurant at the front entrance. We checked in on a weekday and were able to get a table without a reservation. The restaurant had a French style bistro ambiance and the food and cocktails were delicious. Our reservation included a bottle of wine, which we didn't get initially and had to call in as a reminder. Right away staff apologized and sent up our bottle of wine. Overall, a pleasant experience and five stars for location.

Everything about the Swanendele Inn was exceptional: the location, the accommodations, the facilities, the decor, the hosts, and, not least, the breakfast. In fact, you could spend several days just exploring the remarkable antiques and artifacts around the place. However, what made the strongest impression was the fiery glow of dawn though the pine trees outside our balcony every morning in the Margeret Brent suite. Rhododaktylos, "The rosy-fingered dawn": I never understood the true meaning of that phrase until I saw that.

Clean and quiet and friendly staff! Breakfast options are limited and could use an expansion. Otherwise, my stay was exceptional and would come back again!
