The Swan

We are pleased to offer you a beautiful place to stay for the night in the heart of Antwerp.
The Swan is a separate apartment with private entrance and follows the concept of “a true home away from home”. There is more freedom and guests have therefore more independence, coupled with the warmth and hospitality of the host. The Swan offers a bedroom, a bathroom, a living room, a kitchen and a little garden. The bedroom has a big bed, in the living room there is a couch that can be used as a bed for a third person. The bathroom is of course private and is prepared with towels, bathrobes, hairdryer, soap, flat-iron…

Breakfast is self-catered: on request the refrigerator can be stocked with delicious food. A practical kitchen contains all you need to prepare your favourite meal. As The Swan is your personal retreat, you have the possibility to take your breakfast at the time you prefer. In the summer you can breakfast leisurely or simply daydream in the city garden.

Situated in the historical part of the city, you will find a wide-ranging variety of restaurants, cosy pubs, theatres, museums, exhibitions, antique shops, exclusive fashion shops and the most remarkable nightlife at walking distance. Enjoy your stay in downtown Antwerp!
