About this property

Taylor's Pharmacy Guesthouse



It was once a Pharmacy from the year 1949 until 1979, it is today a self-catering apartment, and your home away from home in Southern New England – Taylor’s Pharmacy Guesthouse.

In Fall River MA, a small town on the border of Massachusetts and Rhode Island, nestled between Boston, Cape Cod, Newport and Providence, the apartment is located near Historic Downtown neighborhood. It is close to restaurants, public transport, and nightlife. It is close to restaurants, family-friendly activities, public transport, and nightlife. At a walking distance from Ruggles Park... a stroll from Quequechan River Bike Path, Historic Fall River, Government Center, and Downtown. A three-minute drive from Heritage State Park and Battleship Cove.

The space

Taylor's Pharmacy operating years were a time when treating a date to an ice cream soda or a lime rickey at a pharmacy was a ritual in the art of courting. The pharmacy soda fountains served a mouth-watering array of sundaes, splits and frappes while featuring specialized Fall River drinks such as vanilla cokes and the iconic coffee cabinet. Kids would play in Ruggles Park and stop at the pharmacy to buy candy.

It's the nostalgia of those days I try to bring into Taylor's Pharmacy Guesthouse space through old pictures of the Pharmacy and our neighborhood, vintage elements and thrift finds related to the drugstore, the 40s-70s, and the history of our city.

Charming place!

We completely enjoyed our stay. The attention to detail was wonderful. We appreciated the bathrobes, motion sensor lighting, coffee/tea station, breakfast goods in the refrigerator along with a filtered water pitcher. The bed was very comfortable and we had plenty of pillows. We also liked being able to use the gas BBQ our back. Altogether, a lovely stay.

If you are a details person like me, then this is the place for you! From the muffins, organic tomatoes, and tea from the owners garden to the personalized welcome, and thoughtfully placed instructions for amenities, this place was excellent. It's thoughtfully decorated and cozy. We loved it! We have to return to the area in a few weeks are are disappointed that it isn't available for us to stay again.

What a wonderful stay we had! The hostess thought of everything including a welcoming breakfast, coffee bar, and supplies for my one year old grandson’s stay (high chair, playpen, and baby bath). Directions for check in were very clear and there was plenty of room for three adults and a child in this beautifully decorated apartment. We took a walk around the neighborhood and visited a small summer festival at the park while we were there. We were pleased with the area as it was just a short drive to local beaches and restaurants and close to everything we had planned to visit. Would love to stay again if it’s available the next time we’re in the area.

Amazing second stay!

This was my second year in a row staying at Taylor’s Pharmacy Guest house and it was just as wonderful the second time around! The host’s attention to detail makes everything very aesthetically pleasing and also cozy and welcoming! Both of my stays she left some “welcome food” which came in very handy throughout the week. The bed was very comfy and everything was very fresh and clean. As someone who likes to be cold to sleep, I also appreciated that there were fans in both bedrooms :) Highly recommend staying here and I plan to be back again!

We could not have been happier or more comfortable at Taylor’s Pharmacy!!! Deborah is an excellent host, she even provided us with milk, eggs, butter, English muffins and yummy muffins. The apartment is spotless and beautifully decorated. Parking can be iffy with a bigger vehicle, but that’s city living. It’s location is perfect for a walk downtown. Being from Fall River, I’m so happy to see the pride in the city Deborah shares with her guests.

If I could give 10 stars, I would!

Debora was so easy to work with and so kind as weather altered our plans. When we finally arrived, not only did we find a clean, adorable apartment, it was so welcoming. I had asked about dairy free restaurants in the area since my daughter is allergic. Not only did she give us some places, she had dairy free treats and drinks waiting for us! It was a very comfortable, relaxing stay and very much appreciated!

Family/Vacation Time

This place was so cute and Debora was a great host. She kept in contact with me and if I had questions she was quick to respond. When we arrived we had fresh flowers and muffins on the table which was so thoughtful. She had the fridge stocked with yogurt, granola, eggs, English muffins a small container of OJ and 1/2 gallon of milk. I’ve not been to a place where the host has been so thoughtful to leave items like this. If you are looking and this place is available go ahead and get it booked. You will not regret it! 5 star host and 5 star place. Also try the little ice cream shop around the corner!!! I will definitely book again when I am in the area!! Thank you so much Debora for everything!!!

Perfect Cozy Getaway

My stay at Taylor’s Pharmacy was absolutely perfect! I booked it for a fall get away in October and did a lot of day outings. It was very conveniently close to Providence where I spent a lot of my time and within reasonable driving distance to Salem and Concord MA where I also did some outings to! I cannot express enough how welcoming of an environment Debora created. Everything you could want was already thought of and provided! I hope to come back in the future! :)

A very special stay

How wonderful Taylor's Pharmacy Guesthouse was for our week in Massachusetts. Perfectly located at the center of all we planned for the week, including Newport, Warwick and Providence RI as well as Cape Cod and Boston. The hosts did everything the could to make us feel like family. The place is warm and cozy, yet spacious enough for my husband and I. We worked in the mornings, then headed out each day for a trip to someplace fabulous, sometimes grabbing takeout before heading out to an evening in. The stay was reasonably priced and wonderfully accommodating. Do yourself a favor and book this location. I can't say enough wonderful things about the place and the hosts.

Great Cozy Gem with a Historic Feel

So cute, charming, and spacious...and less expensive than a typical "cookie-cutter" hotel room. It was a pharmacy until 1970, so the decor is set in that era. My boys even got to experience a real working record player! It's in a nice neighborhood near Riggles Park and close to a place that makes homemade ice cream. It's minutes away from the Fall River waterfront as well as Newport, Providence, and all the area hot spots. The owner, Debora, is super nice and a great host. There's a bike you can use, a little patio with a fire pit, and all the little details like bagels and coffee, eggs and milk in the fridge, etc. when you arrive.. If you'd like a unique, artsy, retro, cozy, and historic space that feels like a home away from home, give this local gem a try. All four in my picky family loved it. Eight thumbs up! :-)

So thoughtful of her. Very clean, comfortable and relaxing. Available bicycle and fire pit were an added bonus. We all plan to stay again and introduce this hidden Gem to out friends and family members. Added bonus-Portuguese bakeries in town with great breads and pastries!

Everything was great and exceeded my expectations. Very nice property with attention to details in every room. Upon entering I felt welcomed and “home”. The host had decorated the unit for the holidays which made the stay even more memorable. Then to discover a very nicely stocked refrigerator with more than enough items for breakfast for the week including egg nog from a local dairy. Loved the stocked coffee bar with the French Press, bagels and croissants!
