Victorian Bed And Breakfast Of Staten Island — Hotel in New York

TL:DR Modest house located in northern Staten Island full of beautiful rooms and enjoyable breakfast.

When we looked for a place to stay, we were mostly considering price in New York because price of most places we tried to book was exorbitant. This Bed and Breakfast was affordable, considering few things: 1. we wanted to be somewhat within the vicinity of Queens and the Russian neighborhood; 2. As students, we did not want to pay exorbitant amount for stays; 3. Book somewhere that is unique to New York.

My friends and I decided to book this lovely house for two days for a concert and we knew that after our morning and afternoon schedule, there was no way we will be arriving at 9PM, which in the check-in instruction was the latest we can arrive, but the host was nice to accommodate for us. When we entered, what was waiting for us was a classical music and beautiful furniture and tapestries.

Then in the morning, our host who stays next door in this 3-story duplex, came and made breakfast for us. She was an elderly lady who enjoys living with her cats and being a host for those who comes to stay in her house. She was thankful that we turned off unnecessary lights and A/C before we went up our first night when we came late. She asked us if we want anything for breakfast.

We had fruits, yogurt, bread, and pancakes for breakfast. Second day, she even made us bacon too. She also has Keurig coffee and various juices. Our breakfast was plentiful and delicious each morning. She also had water bottles for us to drink and to take out whenever we needed it.

Bathroom was clean and the hot water came out nicely. Our host would change our towels and sheets every day. We did bring our own shampoo and body wash, but she had some in the bathroom. She really was a great host for us.

There really was too many things about this place you can't help but to just love. Mainly for parties of 2, but there is one room for party of 3, which we booked. And this room has a separate room connected to the main bedroom with a door. This felt like it was more for small family rather three people, but it still worked out for us.

I would recommend anyone who is tired of the same scenery of inns and motels and wants to experience a great accommodation for sleep and eat breakfast made fresh at a fairly...

I spent my birthday weekend with 5 other friends at the Victorian Bed And Breakfast Of Staten Island and I lack the words to describe how amazing my experience was. These photos can barely capture the beauty of the house; it is shockingly gorgeous, with all of the original 19th century details and finishes still preserved. Danuta, the loveliest host, has dedicated the past 25 years of her life to meticulously decorating every room. The furniture, wallpaper, trinkets, lamps, and books are all excruciatingly well chosen and well placed---there is so much intention behind every single decorative choice!

There are many rooms to choose from, each of them containing very very comfortable beds with sheets made from the finest fabrics. One of them contains access to an entire functional private kitchen, and another features a gorgeous outdoor space. The bathrooms have beautiful finishes and plenty of amenities. Lastly, the house also contains a dashing dining room where me and my friends enjoyed some Thai food we ordered from nearby.

Our favorite part of our stay, however, was our very special morning with Danuta. We woke up to a delicious breakfast she cooked from scratch---there were scrambled eggs with dill, bacon, blueberry pancakes, rice pudding, vegetable casserole, fruit salad, banana bread, orange juice, tea coffee, and so much more. I so wish I took a picture of the beautiful table she set for us filled with gorgeous painted china, silver forks, and antique colored glasses. As I ate, Danuta and I had the loveliest conversation. She is extremely kind and knowledgeable, and I loved learning about the incredible history of this house. She even gave me a birthday gift, which I will keep for the rest of my life.

I am not the type to usually write lengthy reviews, but I felt like I needed to share my thoughts so that others can hopefully have the amazing experience we all had. I promise that there is no place like this house, and I feel so lucky to have found it. I cannot recommend it enough and cannot wait to be back. It's so close to the ferry too! Such a perfect weekend. Whether you live in the city or are visiting from afar, the Victorian Bed and Breakfast is THE...
