We had a wonderful stay at the Swiftwater. The decor was beautiful. The heated pool was a plus. We ate at the restaurant in the hotel. The food was delicious. You have to drive outside of the resort to find things to do but this hotel is perfect if you just want to relax in peace.

Not what I expected
We checked in and our room was not ready until 5:30pm after having to follow up several times. There is also an undisclosed policy that doesn’t allow kids in the pool past 5pm. Will not be returning. It’s a nice hotel but they lost my family with this policy.

Great hotel for families, very clean!
What a fantastic stay with the Swiftwater. We routinely come to the Pocono area during Thanksgiving time, and we discovered this hotel on our most recent stay. We will definitely be back, great hotel, awesome rooms, and wonderful environment. High recommend.

Heavenly at the front desk is indeed Heavenly.
Comfortable and Cozy but the best part was the young woman at the Front Desk, Heavenly. She checked us in and out and had several interactions with her. She was so friendly, warm and professional. We felt so cared for.

Over priced
I was expecting a lot more from this hotel. First the elevators were slow and no service elevators so that slowed things down even more. Lobby area is not large and the bar area is in the restaurants seating area. Indoor pool is small, no hot tubs. One outdoor fire pit has limited seating. If you get a forward room you have a nice view of the parking lot and the road in front. One uncomfortable chair in the room which could use an ottoman. The overall Ambiance is lacking in this hotel.
The hotel has two restaurants with one dining area and one bar. The food was very good but was also very slow to come out. Especially breakfast which is puzzling. We got the Lobster tail added to our steak dinners. Boiled to the point of being over cooked with no dipping butter or sauce of any kind and basically thrown on the plate. they need to rethink that one. Aside from the dinning experience, the staff were great! The Bed very comfortable and the overall room was nice.

Beautiful hotel. Aesthetics are on point. Ample parking. Concierge is super friendly & helpful from the moment you pull up. Kenny has a great personality and it was a pleasure to be greeted so well. Room layout is fab. Bathroom not directly in view of bed so there is subtle separation. Bathroom is gorgeous with green accents. Wood tones and black hardware is a plus. The shower is SO amazing. Great pressure and temps. Love the modern vibe of the shower drain. One of the best showers I’ve had in a hotel. Soft towels. Luxe robe and slippers to greet you upon exit from shower are a treat. Tech vibes with touchpad to operate lights, TV and temp. Very easy to work. We had a street facing room which gets great light. The bed wasn’t the best to us. Too firm. Great bedding though. Room was spotless. If you need an iron vs steamer, just ask. Everyone was so friendly. Most staff would speak and make nice small talk. Very gracious as well. Front desk didn’t ask us about our stay & IMO that should always be part of the checkout. A hospitality requirement. It’s simple & says a lot without saying much. The indoor pool is too small. Probably should have been a hot tub w/sauna & steam room perhaps. Gym is small but worked for me. While we loved most, I would not book again bc there is too much overhead noise. Wood floors are a nightmare for me in hotels. Too much stomping and shoe clacks. If I stay again it would be concierge top floor only. I need quiet overhead & can’t have such here, sadly

Nice place but needs work.
Amazing place when we first arrived. Beautiful inside and was assisted with taking belongings up to room. Downhill after that. Couldn't take a shower without covering the bathroom floor with water. Was only half of a privacy shower no door or a way to keep water in. Stayed for 3 nights. No cleaning was done the entire time. No towels/wash cloths or trash was not taken care of. The bed was hard as a rock. Not comfortable at all with someone with a bad back. The music from the inside restaurant was heard in the room all day and into the night. Not a relaxing place to come unwind. Overall nice place but needs to up their game a little.

Loved the hotel; our room was modern, well-appointed and clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Our dinner at the on-site restaurant, Olivet, was amazing. We would definitely return and highly recommend The Swiftwater to anyone planning a trip to the Poconos.
