My wife and I spent a night at Eileen's in Mystic CT. To say that it was an incredible experience I am afraid would be an understatement. There were three things of note that I would like to describe: The room was flawless with all of the amenities you would expect at a luxury bed and breakfast. The bathrooms had been completely renovated, by Josh, and were modern and up-to-date including beautiful tile work and a large shower with good water pressure and plenty of hot water. In my experience this is not available in most old houses that have been turned into a B&B. We were amazed when we went down to breakfast the next morning. Erin had prepared a buffet where each item had been carefully and meticulously selected and created by her. The main dish was a special Scotch eggs which was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was unhurried and friendly and we couldn't stop from going back for more over and over again. The best part however was being given the opportunity to spend some time with these two extraordinary people. We were regaled by stories of their lives which culminated in them settling in New York City before "adventuring" to Mystic. Erin as a graphic artist made sure that every detail was perfect in the house and Josh who is perhaps the most talented person I have ever met, who has had numerous successful careers shared them with us. They range from being a barber to being a master craftsman restoring old churches. I don't know how they had the time to spend with us with everything that is going on in their lives, but we will always be grateful...
Read moreIt is rare the couple I work for asks me to leave a review, but upon their return from their stay at Eileen of Mystic, they specifically requested I leave a rave review for this B&B. They travel often and have high standards for hotels, preferring five star luxury boutique properties. Eileen of Mystic was a wonderful, welcome surprise on their short jaunt to Connecticut to see a show - I think they liked the B&B more than the show they went to see!|The hosts were welcoming and hospitable, and the artist's eye for detail was woven into the care of each guest as well as the property itself. The craftmanship of the property, the interesting art, the fabulous breakfast... it all made for a truly delightful stay. (The hosts even made a special trip to get oat milk for morning coffee without being asked so everyone could have their morning coffee exactly how they wanted it.) It was also a great location to be in to explore Mystic itself.|There are only three available suites at the B&B, and they booked all of them with friends. All in all, the stay was an utter delight, and if they have need to be in the Mystic area again we know where...
Read moreOmgosh! I can’t say enough great things about Eileen of Mystic…and it’s owners, Josh and Erin!!|We came to Mystic for my birthday on a Thursday and left on Monday. In that short time, we experienced the most pleasant, restful stay and wonderfully yummy breakfasts than any other b&b! The muffins each morning were fresh out of the oven, which are so wonderful to eat and smell! Erin makes granola and artisan bread also!! I believe we were the first to buy her granola, we loved it so much!! The fruit was fresh and chia seed yogurts were definitely right down my alley!!|The house (love the kitchen!), furnishings, artwork (Josh is the artist) and attention to details rate our experience a 10+!! A bonus…Josh and Erin are now family. They are a wonderful couple that work hard and are happy to please! Thank you both for the love you put into everything!! We can’t say enough good things about our weekend because, from the time we arrived to the time we left, the feelings that we have cannot be put into words! You need to experience it!!|We are looking forward to returning!!|Love,...
