For the price, this was an excellent value. The room was clean, the hospitality welcoming, and the continental breakfast was excellent. If I happen to be traveling through this area again, I will definitely stay here!
The Brandywine River Hotel is close to many historical monuments, museums and restaurants. It is quiet and well maintained. The hotel staff are welcoming and friendly.

Nice, quiet little inn. It wasn’t as clean as one would hope and the fixtures were dated. “Jetted” tub may have been jetted years ago. Mattress was worn out and we rolled to middle. Great location and reasonable cost.
