Worth the steps!
You do have to wrestle your suitcase up quite a few outside steps but there is plenty of room. It is worth the view from the dining area where a delightful breakfast was served. It is a cute, quaint place full of character. The hostesses was delightful. She was friendly and fun to visit.

Wonderful little Inn. We were able to drop bags and check in early with a simple phone call. Room and other areas were just as pictured, cozy, comfortable and squeaky clean. By AK timeline, this is in an older building, and the room is directly adjacent to the dining area. But guests were respectful of quiet hours and the bedding was very comfortable. We could see the harvest moon, northern lights, and spectacular sunrise over the bay right from our window. Then there was the tasty fresh, hot breakfast. Great location, a perfect stay in Seward

The Swan Nest Inn is located at the end of town near some restaurants and shopping. The water is only two blocks away where there is a nice park like area. Additionally there is a Safeway and Starbucks a short drive away. Breakfast was cooked to order plus you have free use of the kitchen and refrigerator if desired. We actually prepared a nice pasta dish with bread and wine one night for dinner. The Inn has a very relaxed atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. Our room was small but cozy with a large shower. Hairdryers, fans, heaters, and extra towels or blankets are in the hallway to use as needed. We had a relaxing, comfortable stay.

Great place to stay at a reasonable price. If you have mobility issues it may not work for you because only access is by stairs.

6/10 Good

Good breakfast bad bed
B&B located in walkable area of Seward. Good breakfast. Room was small. Bed took up most of room. Mattress desperately needs replacement. No place to relax. Common area has one uncomfortable chair and even more uncomfortable bench. Okay for 2 ppl for 1 or 2 nights. We were there for 4 nights. Happy to move on.

The Swan’s Nest was perfect for our trip to Seward. We had the corner room next to the dining area and it was very quiet. We had a view of Resurrection Bay and enjoyed watching the skies change. The breakfasts were outstanding. I will definitely recommend the Swan’s Nest for a stay in Seward.

8/10 Very Good

Staff was very accommodating- prepared us a delightful to go breakfast one day. Check in was very easy. The place had a common room for meals or hanging out. Much needed as our very cute room was small, so the only option for sitting was on the bed, which was quite firm and uncomfortable for sleeping. HOWEVER, this place has charm and was otherwise wonderful with so many things available (kitchen, coolers and more!) the breakfast was cooked to order and delicious!!! It’s a short walk to the waterfront and Alaska Sea Life Ctr., as well as quaint shops and restaurants.
