Enjoyed a step back in time. The Inn Keeper, Kevin, was very hospitable and seemed genuinely concerned that his guests enjoy their stay.

The Hollinger house is just beautiful. The owner, Kenneth, gave us a tour of this lovely home upon our arrival. The pictures on-line do not do this house justice. Kenneth also told us of the home's history witch was extremely informative, and made us appreciate our stay even more. Our room was very comfortable and nicely decorated. Breakfast was included with our stay, and I must say that Kenneth is a very good cook as well as host. Upon our arrival, he asked us if we had any special dietary requirements that he needed to address, which I felt was very considerate. We had the pleasure of meeting several of the other fourteen guests while there, and it was so nice getting to know them. Unfortunately, we only spent one night at the Hollinger House, and I must say that one night is not long enough. there is so much to do, and we can't wait to take advantage of that. Kenneth, we look forward to coming back next year for at least two nights, to see you and spend more time in your beautiful home. Thank-you for everything.

My wife and I came to this property for an overnight in lLancaster. Fantastic bed and breakfast. The owner was very accommodating and clearly takes great pride in the property. Our room was beautiful, as were all of the common areas. The area is far enough away from everything that you can enjoy the quiet, but within a very reasonable drive to shopping and dining. We'll definitely be back.

The Inn has a wonderful ambience with beautiful grounds. Otherwise, disappointing compared to other inns we've stayed. It's advertised that breakfast is served between certain times but that wasn't the case; 8:30. No flexibility for guests that need to leave earlier other than a bagged breakfast to go. Keurig on second floor, which if you're a tea drinker using a Keurig is awful. Fresh coffee and Hot water offered in the dining room from 7 am on would be most appreciated. Had to ask for almost everything: water, fresh creamers, etc. Most of us guests went to the local store to get some cheese, bread for the late afternoon, etc., Later the inn keeper brought out a nice charcutier board. It would be nice to know that in advance and served earlier as it would have saved a trip to the local store. Mattress in Rafaela's room needs to be replaced.

Beautiful original house and gorgeous property. Lovely antiques everywhere. Negative: advertises “full breakfast” and only had pastries, sweet cakes, croissants and hard boiled eggs. We do not eat sweets for breakfast. Also no TV in the rooms or in the common room.

Atmosphere was relaxing; host was welcoming and engaging. Though there are no TVs in the bedrooms or social areas, they are far from missed. Sitting on the wrap-around porch enjoying nature and reading to playing a late night game of Scrabble in the parlor, we found ourselves wishing we had booked more than an overnight stay. One of the best continental breakfasts ever -- yogurt parfaits, pastries, croissants, cereal, hard boiled eggs, fresh fruit salad, orange juice, great coffee, elegantly and artistically presented, available for self-serve until mid-morning. Located not far from main street Lancaster and close to Lititz, it was a unique, memorable place to stay. And the attention to detail was noted from the room chocolates next to the bed, robes in the closet, center pieces on dinning room tables and use of china and silver for breakfast. We really can't say enough as to how delightful our experience was! The only dislike -- we could not extend for another night because there were no rooms available! Definitely a place to which we will be returning.

Brandy and Teddy are incredible hosts! The house and grounds were absolutely stunning. It is well worth the conservative price and as a bonus, they made the most incredible vegan dish for my lady to accommodate her special needs diet. Can't say enough wonderful things. You should definitely stay there if you're ever in the Lancaster or surrounding areas.

The room we stayed is was totally acceptable. However, we would encourage the owners to pick a level of consistency with the finishes. In particular, the bathroom was neither "modernized" nor "historically accurate". It had an odd blend of faux antique and off-the-shelf hardware store updates. The rest of the property's public spaces seemed to have a consistent feel.

Amazing B&B
Amazing place. Brandy and Teddy were such nice innkeepers..they keep the place immaculate! Stayed in Michael room..so spacious and beautifully decorated plus private balcony overlooking woods. Bed was so comfy and rooms have no tv for peace and calmness in the house!! Breakfast was prepared by Teddy which was homemade pancakes or ham & cheese quiche - such delicious way to start day! Parking was tight bc full house. Next to highway but inside you escape the fast-paced world and just relax. Close to everything (must drive). Overall: Great place..you will NOT be disappointed!!
