The White Swan draws inspiration from the elegant Crown Lynn vases - long valued by New Zealanders for their style and grace - which form the theme for this gorgeous Country Hotel in the heart of historic Greytown which embodies the fine traditions of a name famous the world over for excellence in affordable accommodation and hospitality. The main Hotel building was originally a New Zealand Railways
administration block in Woburn, Lower Hutt. In December 2002 the
building was relocated (see gallery for photos) over the Rimutaka Ranges in six pieces on the back of
a few very large trucks. One of the six pieces almost didn’t make
it; skewing off the back off its truck and teetering on the edge of the
hill, closing the road for eight hours. Now pieced back together and
restored the building has blended into the 125 year old Main Street of
Greytown. The Hotel consists of thirteen beautiful suites & studios,
all individually designed by Michael Nalder Interior Designer of
Wellington. Michael has given the old administration block a queer
eye type makeover with a vision for a smart and modern Country Hotel. Within the hotel proper there are seven wonderful luxury suites believed to be the most unique in New Zealand each with their own theme that makes a stay something truely special. For example; there is the Madison Room with its New York apartment style and the Bombay Room offering an exotic touch of India. Five of these suites have their own balconies, which beg guests to retire with a cool glass of wine on a beautiful summer evening to take in the sunset. Situated to the rear of the Hotel are the Park Suites and Studios, which offer guests a tranquil retreat with balconies and patios that back onto the neighbouring park.Proprietors Rob & Jaime Slater gave up their professional lives in Wellington to move to the beautiful Wairarapa and run their Hotel. They live onsite and love nothing more than ensuring that their guests have a relaxing and memorable stay. Our beautiful Hotel is the perfect venue:
