Cons: Finding the parking for the Inn is beyond confusing. I was sent a message with directions on how to find it. But, it is on a very tiny back road and the parking itself is very tight.
There is no longer breakfast available. This is stated on their website. But, it is a little disappointing. Especially with the price, it would be nice to have the full experience of a Bed and Breakfast. There is a kitchen. But, it is self serve. The first two days of my stay there was no creamer/milk to be found for coffee. There are also only cereal bars available for “breakfast”. I feel that something light such as pastries or bagels would have been nice. I ended up going down the road to the local diner for breakfast each morning.
I stayed in the Balcony room. The room itself was very cute, sophisticated and comfortable. I even had my own balcony. BUT, to get to my room you have to go through your “private” bathroom. I noticed this was the only door that did not have a keypad on it. So, during the day when I was gone it could not be locked. It did make me feel a little uneasy that anyone could walk into the bathroom. Hence why I didn’t leave any personal belongings anywhere but my room.
As far as PROS: this is a very cute and quaint Inn with a lot of history. If you want simple and comfortable place to stay that is centrally located, this is it. I was able to leave my car parked for the trip and walk to the destinations I wanted to. Right next door is their restaurant (The Peter Herdic House). More upscale, but affordable dining with very good food and service. Downtown with the shops is a block away as well as any other sort of...
Read moreMy wife and I were looking for a stopping point to stay over in PA on our way from Philadelphia to Buffalo, NY. By chance we stumbled across the Peter Herdic House. What a gem!! The house is a lovingly restored mansion from the 1800's. The restoration gave careful attention to the period detail while updating it to a very comfortable hotel for the present day. Entering it feels like coming home, if you lived in a spectacular Victorian mansion located on a road with many other equally stunning homes. There are many comfortable places to relax in the Inn including the front sitting room and a lovely back deck under the shelter of the cool wisteria. The innkeeper Sheila was incredibly warm and welcoming as were the rest of the staff. She also communicated flawlessly even before we had arrived smoothing the check in process and letting us know about the complimentary items such as snack, wine and beers that might be found in the kitchen. She said many times, "make yourself at home". And it felt like that. We also had dinner at the Peter Herdic restaurant which is located in the Italianate villa next door. The meal was great and the waitstaff was equally professional. I cannot recommend the Peter Herdic Inn highly enough. We will be recommending it to all of our friends in the area and we hope to return again sometime...
Read moreI'm not one for reviews but Brooke at the Peter Herdic Inn went above and beyond and I couldn't not share the experience. The day of our reservation, she texted to find out what time we'd be arriving and to see if we wanted to make dinner reservations. When our 6 hour drive turned into a 9 hour debacle, we arrived exhausted but found a beautiful inn and lovely rooms. Even though the restaurant had closed an hour before, Brooke brought us wine and made sure we had everything we needed, including helping me wrestle my dog's crate out of the car. The next morning, we had the most spectacular breakfast, also thanks to Brooke and a colleague. If you come through this area, stay here. It will be a very special...
