We had heard about Room 109 through social media and friends who had visited, so we decided to…read morecheck it out. This speakeasy is located in the basement of the Hotel Indigo. To reach it, we went through the lobby and took the elevator down. As it was a Saturday night, there was a line, and the bouncer let only a few people in at a time since the place is small. About 20 minutes later, we made it to the front of the line and went in. There's definitely a speakeasy vibe with dark walls, retro photos on the walls, and subdued lighting. We found a seat at a small table and perused the menu which had a limited amount of cocktails and no food. My husband had to go to the bar to get our drinks although I was able to ask someone to clear and wipe down the table. I asked for a Chapter One cocktail (cool name) with vodka as opposed to gin, and it was quite good and not overly sweet. My husband liked his Bellhop Mule. I later tried the French 109 with cognac which was served in a Champagne glass. Keep in mind this is a quiet, sophisticated place without live music, so it's perfect for an after dinner drink rather than a party hangout.

Great spot for craft cocktails in a moody speakeasy style. Grab the elevator in the hotel and go to…read morethe basement. Once out of the elevator, you will see it to your left (same floor as fitness center). As soon as you walk in, you sense the moody decor and speakeasy vibes. There is a small bar and lots of small intimate seating areas. There is also a restroom available in the area. We ordered The Stanford and the Spicy Sunset. Both were great. The menu does offer some crafty cocktails, as well as beer and wine selections. They were a little busy when we got there and found a seat. After waiting a little while we realized that servers weren't coming around (there were 2) so ended up going up to the bar to order. Not the best set up for ordering at the bar as there are patrons seated there so hovering over them to order wasn't comfortable for them or us. Within a half an hour of coming, they got very busy and another server appeared. Not sure if they usually come around for orders or not. Overall, a good experience with tasty drinks. We only stayed for one drink. There wasn't any music or entertainment. There is a parking garage literally next to the hotel with reasonable rates. Worth a try.

We stayed here for the first time this weekend. It was our first time doing a bed and breakfast and…read morewe had an incredible time. We stayed in the Cobalt suite. The room was perfect!

My boyfriend and I were beyond mentally fried and over the city. We decided to get out into the…read morecountry a little bit, and do something we had never done before - stay at a B&B. I found the Adamstown Inn online, and it was reasonably priced, the photos didn't look like Great Aunt Gertrude's parlor, and every room had an en-suite fireplace (my one stipulation). We stayed 2 nights in the Topaz room at the Amethyst Inn. It was amazing. The Amethyst Inn is a big, old (but beautifully maintained) Victorian home, converted into the Inn. Our room was equal parts Victoriana (joie de vie wallpaper and a very ornate cast iron fireplace) and Country - beautiful antique oak furniture. The queen sized featherbed was luxurious and we slept like babies. The bathroom was updated, immaculate and the jacuzzi was amazing. Breakfast was to die for. Four courses each morning of fantastic, unique home cooked goodness. Everything was so fresh and amazing. Their coffee was great (and endless) as well! The staff was wonderful and warm, but not intrusive. They were incredibly thoughtful. Every day there was a small gift waiting for us on the bed, and when we left they gave us snacks for the road! It snowed overnight the 2nd night, and they even cleaned our car off for us before we woke up. This place is first rate, gourmet, beautifully decorated and it is a wonderful respite away from Philadelphia. We, much like The Terminator, will be back.

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying here last Sunday…read more We are from the area and I had won a night's stay as part of a raffle. The sprawling property is beautiful! There are several structures throughout the BNB, we stayed in the Pond House in the Fats Hollow Room. The room had a beautiful view of the fountain and the pond, there is even a little row boat! The large king sized bed was super comfortable and the décor in shades of blue was very soothing. The owners are incredibly hospitable to their guests and made us feel so welcome. The check in area also serves as the "dining room" for the incredible breakfast served daily. I loved the snacks, coffee and soft drinks that are available. Breakfast was a TREAT! Homemade cinnamon rolls, crunchy fresh granola and Greek yogurt then a hearty spread of delicious sausage links, thick sourdough toast, fresh fruit (cut into delightful shapes) and a brown butter omelet. So satisfying and fresh. We raved about it for a bit! (The fresh preserves were a hit also) The location is so convenient to Longwood (which we visited), wineries and restaurants. Literally perfect. Lance and Sandy, thank you for your incredible hospitality, you truly made us feel so welcome and we'd love to return someday.

The Inn at Whitewing Farm is everything you need it to be if you're thinking about an off the grid,…read morequiet and relaxing time. Comfort and elegance merge in each of the richly decorated rooms. I don't believe there is a bad one to be had here at the Inn, though the suites offer a tad more luxury. Your charming innkeepers are eager to please creating foods to delight the eyes and palate. Everything at Whitewing Farm is welcoming, personal and designed for ultimate in comfort. You will feel like royalty and leave refreshed. The sprawling grounds contain a pond, gazebo, tennis courts and a pool. The Haybarn is a common area that hosts a seating area with fireplace, library and wine cellar. Beautiful florals and lush greens rapture your soul as the quiet surroundings engulf you luring you away from the technology and chaos of daily life. My experience at Whitewing could not have been better, unless of course I could have stayed a few more nights and escape the reality of my life. Five full stars all the way.

Christopher, their Labrador, made us feel very protected and was a magnificent substitute for the 2 dogs I left at home.

It's such a versatile place! From smaller conference rooms, studio spaces for one on one meetings, comfortable hotel rooms (reasonable priced, just a bit over a hundred) with all the amenities, and larger event rooms, too. I am really familiar with the event space downstairs. I've attended events and showcases in The Lafayette Ballroom. The room is large and can fit so many people. I believe 300. The ceilings are high and it's quite impressive. There's an outdoor area perfect for cocktail hour and an inclosed lounge area too. I've seen it draped, which is stunning and dramatic and left bare, showcasing the exposed bricks walls. Both gorgeous looks! This weekend, the party I was at took place in the lobby, which they decorated and draped how they wanted in their theme, in the downstairs bar area, and in the American Ballroom, which was much more intimate and cozy! The food here is catered strictly by Garces Events and is always a crowd pleaser. I've had tastes of a Cinco de Mayo themed event with mini churros and delicious baby tacos, a fancy event with gorgeous plated ceviches, lamb meatball skewers and other finer dining bites, and a casual buffet this past weekend. All different. All delicious! All events also included passed appetizers also. It seems like you could really create your own special menu here! The staff is wonderful! From the front desk helping me with information on a room, to the valet guys, to our waitress who introduced herself to our table at an our event, to the nice bartender who grabbed me a glass of club and lime long after the event was over, to the other friendly bartender mixing my signature smoking cocktail this past weekend, the entire staff have all been truly helpful, overly friendly and knowledgeable of their facility. The grounds here are gorgeous! There's a lush green golf course and even a helicopter pad for your rich friends haha. From the higher floors and the lobby entrance you can see for miles and it's stunning, especially lit up at night! It's also exceptionally beautiful in the fall from the higher floors! I would absolutely recommend CHUBB for a wedding or mitzvah celebration. It's a 'one stop shop', especially if you have guests from out of town. And I love the taste of Philly you get with Garces just outside the city! It's always a treat coming here!

Not sure if he is still there, as this was ten years ago. Recently, I've been back for some meetings, including an all day meeting today. Wow, I was impressed last time when Wolfgang Puck ran the kitchen... Now Iron Chef Jose Garces group runs this place? Unreal... I arrived for my meeting and grabbed a quick continental breakfast. The meeting rooms were well organized, with notepads and pens for the guests. All of the equipment was working in all of the rooms and there were no technical issues at all. During one of our breaks, the breakfast food was gone, but candy and nuts were in it's place. Sweedish fish and almonds became my early morning snack. More meetings and then lunch time. We walk past the hotel section and I find out the food is now run by Jose Garces' group. There was a taco section, where they were making up these perfect little tacos. I was able to make my own corned beef sandiwch, along with homemade potato chips. I grabbed some fried chicken, pork tenderloin, and tortillas with guacamole. The pork was a little dry, but had great spicy flavor. Service excelled as waiters took our drink orders and pulled out chairs for guests to sit down. I decided to grab dessert and went with the pear cobbler with white chocolate sauce, but as soon as I sat down, I ran back to get one more short rib perfect taco. After eating that, I devoured the refreshing pear cobbler. Our next meeting would be starting soon, so we started back, but then we noticed an ice cream machine. Why not grab a small cone for the long walk back? well, I did. More meetings and then we had more snacks. A popcorn machine? Cheese, crackers? Waffles??? Amazing waffles with powedered sugar? I don't need dinner now, because I went to a conference at the Chubb center. Pure gluttony and now I have to wait until next year for my next meeting...

When we arrived at the circular drive to the 1860's Darlington Mansion our hopes increased. Innkeeper, Lori, met us at the door and toured us through the three stories of this well preserved and restored mansion. Inside we found a gorgeous home, well appointed with period pieces. Lori showed us all the rooms before taking us to the Percy Suite, an elegant area with a sitting room, walk-in closet, and gas fireplace. The bed was very comfortable and several windows made the spacious room feel even warmer. We travel often and have stayed in dozens of B and B's. We've learned the innkeeper can make or break your stay. Lori is a gem. She makes you feel welcome in all the common spaces and around the grounds, has a small frig for your cold items, and even offers a variety of wines for your enjoyment. We had a glass of Mondavi Cab. Quite nice. Each room has a guest notebook covering Lori's great 8 restaurants and area sights to see. Thoughtful and well done. We opted for her top choice, Vudu's Cajun Cuisine and had a great meal. In the morning she puts out coffee and tea at 7:30 am then serves up a mean breakfast at nine. We skipped lunch that day; we were so full. If you are in the West Chester area and love a romantic getaway, this place is a must. Lori also does wedding venues and business stays. We wish her the best of successes.

Built in the 1860s and beautifully restored, the hotel is beautiful. Formerly Faunbrook Bed & Breakfast, it's now a book-themed hotel, with seven rooms filled with books you can read during your stay. We stayed in Jane's Room - a room inspired by Jane Austen. Not only was the room gorgeous (complete with a great selection of books, picture of Jane above the bed, and a bed draped with red velvet), the bathroom was gorgeous, too. And the room had all the amenities: electric tea kettle, coffeemaker, towels, slippers, and more. They also have a very nice main level with space for reading or sitting by the fire. Just a beautiful building. The hotel is self-check-in style. They text you the day of your stay with the code for the front door and the combination for the lockbox for the key to your room. It didn't take away from the lovely stay. It snowed overnight during our stay, so we woke up to an even more charming hotel. That added to an already wonderful stay. If you're a reader or even if you're not, you can have a great hotel stay at this unique and charming hotel.
