Midweek getaway

Quant bed and breakfast tucked into a small town. Older building, like most b&b's, so you can hear a lot of sounds. The room we stayed in was perfect for a romantic get away. Breakfast was awesome. Stayed here before and definitely will again. Also, if they are open I strongly recommend heading to Tilton H.O.P., some of the best greek style pizza in all of NH less than a half mile away.

Pros: the room was large enough for 2 adults and 1 teenager, breakfast was good, staff puppy dog was adorable, convenient location, owners responded quickly to texts. Cons: owners not on sight, lots of needs for repairs, the room was excruciatingly hot with no ability to adjust the temp, dog running around the kitchen didn't seem right, baked goods and drinks in common area were not replenished sorting the stay and what was out was stale. Side note... couple who tended the inn were on and off friendly. Drank openly outside (beer and hard alcohol) - neither ever introduced themselves which was odd. Walked into a drumming and spiritual medium class in the living room - felt disruptive going in and out but it was our only option at the time and they were in the living room/entrance so little we could do there. Main Street traffic was loud so something to consider. We've stayed at a number of B and B's. This was not the worst by any means, but not the best for the price in our opinion.

Black Swan

I stayed there two times over 5 days, it was a nice space but was sort of old, had electrical issues with CPap (no outlets near end table and most were two prong) and narrow stairs and toilet was really low, stuff like that.

This is a beautiful Victorian Bed and Breakfast. Check in was easily arranged in advance even though we arrived late at night. The room was quiet and comfortable as advertised. A wonderful delicious breakfast was served. Charming hosts who described some of the unique history of the Inn. We used this stay as a very convenient location between an evening in Concord, NH, and a fall colors hike in the White Mountains. Will definitely plan on visiting this property again in the future.

The Black Swan inn is the right place for peaceful Stay. We enjoyed the uniqueness of the old Victorian built in 1880 and beautifully decorated . The owners John and Tricia made you feel very Welcome and also prepared a nice breakfast served in a lovely setting.

The level of road noise in the room was beyond loud. I made a phone call and the person I was speaking to could hear the road noise quite loudly too. Other than the noise, I liked the stay as a slightly above average. I would not recommend this place to a person who sleeps poorly with constant road noise.

Sandy, who greeted us at check in, was so lovely. The morning staff during breakfast, well, let's just say the last place she wanted to be was serving us. That pretty much sped up our desire to leave. It's an old building, with charm and outstanding woodwork. The original stained glass is breathtaking. But the place needs work, especially on the exterior. Modifications in the bedroom, (night stand and outlets to accommodate CPAP machine, USB outlets, etc) which is not easy with old architecture but it can be done...would add that extra touch. Price was reasonable but not sure I will return.
