Hôtel du Cygne Review

Passed down from mother to daughter, "the Swan" is decorated with homey touches like hand-sewn curtains, country quilts, white wood furniture, and flea market finds. Bathrooms are marble; older ones have mosaic tiling. Book early for the larger rooms, which include Nos. 16, 26, 35, and 41. Ancient wood beams run the length of the two stairwells, which makes for uneven stepping that challenges even the most agile guests. A 24-hour security system must have guests buzzed in to enter.
