Inn Details
‘Très a l’aise’ as a French man once said when entering the apartment. And yes, it’s a true home away from home! Bored with staying in sterile environments, Nadine looked into the possibility of providing overnight accommodation that felt like being at home. A private entrance for the apartment will give guests entry to their personal retreat, together with the warmth and hospitality of the hostess. The Swan is on the ground floor of a renovated townhouse. Its distinct interior is created to comfortably accommodate two or three guests. Breakfast is self-catered. Close to The Swan there is a very nice Turkish food shop that you could go to. It sells tasty breakfast food. In the summer you can breakfast leisurely or simply daydream in the city garden. All within walking distance you will find a wide-ranging variety of restaurants, cozy pubs, theatres, museums, cinemas, exhibitions, antique shops, exclusive fashion shops, auctions and the most remarkable nightlife. Our map of the city will guide you past the architectural wonders of the city's heart.

The Swan is actually a little 1 bedroom apartment guests can have all to themselves - with breakfast as an optional...although Belgian waffles from a little stand usually do the trick. I'd highly recommend The Swan and wouldn't hesitate to book with Nadine again. It really made our stay!

We stayed one night in June 2008. Our plane was late but Nadine was so kind to wait for us to arrive and then help us find a place to park. The apartment is very charming and comfortable. It is in a great location and the breakfast she left for us to prepare was excellent. We enjoyed Antwerp and wish we could have stayed longer. Kristin and David from Philadelphia USA
