Hideaway Report Names The Swag Most Romantic on 2018 Grand Award List
The Swag, featured in the January 2018 Grand Awards special edition issue of The Hideaway Report, Andrew Harper’s member-exclusive monthly publication, was named “Most Romantic” under Hotel Standouts.

The Swag was first recommended as a top rated hotel by Andrew Harper in December 1993 and was included once again in the November 2017 issue of The Hideaway Report.

Andrew Harper inspires transformative high-end travel through honest, independent reviews of the world’s top 1,000 hideaways and hotels. All of Andrew Harper’s recommended properties possess exceptional character, a commitment to classic hospitality and a profound sense of place. In 2017, editors flew more than 125,000 miles, visited 16 countries and stayed in close to 150 hotels. Of those, very few were selected to be recommended hotels and fewer still get the honor of a Grand Award. The highlights of the year are reflected in this special magazine edition of The Hideaway Report.

Said Andrew Harper’s Hideaway Report of The Swag, “Located at an elevation of 5,000 feet, The Swag is a mountaintop refuge that sits on 250 acres and shares a boundary line with Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The 14 cozy and lovingly decorated accommodations are hard to leave. And after a hiking excursion, it is always a pleasure to return and relax in front of a roaring fire. The wonderfully homey lounge-library in the Chestnut Lodge, the porch swings positioned for ideal sunset viewings and the candlelit tables for two in the dining room all make this property ideal for a romantic getaway. The Swag’s exceptional staff are consistently charming and unfailingly attentive.“

Andrew Harper’s team of editors evaluate properties using decades of travel experience, well beyond a checklist, to distinguish the truly enchanting from the merely excellent. The Swag is delighted to be among the top properties recommended during the past year of travel.
