If you want a quiet, historical experience, then this is the venue. It's not new, shiny - but that is not why you go there. It is a beautiful Tudor-style hotel, with old fixtures, antique windows, and the charm of a storybook castle. The innkeeper is lovely and the grounds are beautiful. We missed peak colors by a week or two and are considering a quick trip back! Buffet breakfast was just right.

Have stayed here before and had a wonderful time. This time not so much!!! Room was fine. However the caretaker was quite rude. There were other couples staying and he was overheard yelling I wish this F’ ing people would leave. Morning for breakfast was a joke . It’s supposed to be a continental breakfast , we literally had cold sugary cereal , store bout small Brownie bites, petafores and soggy macaroons. Also packaged waffles but there was no syrup or anything to put on it. Shame as we love the manor to enjoy a great night with friends , but I doubt we will return

Overall, we had a great time and loved the venue. At the price point of $400 after taxes and fees, we felt like a few things were lacking. The shower in the Gatsby Room had very low water pressure. No Wi-fi was an inconvenience. The TV was from 20 years ago and very small. The biggest issue for us was this…. If guests wanted to leave the manor after 10 pm, they had to disturb the inns keeper to constantly open the front door for them. There really should be a door bell or video monitoring system so that guests can come and go as they please. To feel like you're stuck in your room after 10 pm when you're paying $400 for the room is not ideal. Other than that, we loved the manor, breakfast was great, staff was very helpful, etc.

Absolutely amazing! I never knew there was a castle in NJ. It was quiet, picturesque and awesome. My husband and I stayed for 2 nights in September, the Innkeeper was friendly and answered any questions. The grounds were beautiful; there were gardens, statues and a koi pond. Breakfast each day had plenty of options. We didn't have any plans on the 2nd day and it was perfect because we spent it exploring everything we could about the castle. I highly recommend, I can't wait to go back.

The front desk person, Vinny, was very kind and helpful. The property itself was beautiful, but the parking lot was a far walk from the manor. My main concern is how they false advertised on Expedia. They advertise free wifi for all rooms, but there was no wifi whatsoever. I have Verizon and my service wasn’t the best in this area, so it wasn’t a great experience on that end. It said online that there was free breakfast and an ironing board available for use (which I needed in the morning); there was no ironing board to be found and breakfast was an additional charge. Additionally, the pictures of our room varied from the actual room in small ways (different bedding, table instead of ledge in front of the bed, etc.) so I think they may have photographed a similar room on the same floor? Overall the venue was pretty and staff were very kind, but the Expedia page is entirely outdated. Make sure to call before you book to make sure they have the amenities you’re looking for.

Absolutely wonderful stay! Rented a goegeous room in the castle for a couple days for husband and I 27 yr wedding anniversary, and we had a blast! Big bwautiful castle with big spacious rooms. My husnams and I stayed during the week and we practically had the whole castle to ourselves!! The Inn keeper is amazing! Lemon water and cookies available all day. Lots of choices for breakfast. Lots of land and garden to walk and roam. This place is beautiful and very comfortable! I'm so glad we got a room in this castle instead of a typical hotel. Are room was huge! Loved, loved, loved. Will stay at again when I come back to this area of the states.

1. There was zero lighting and the parking was about a mile from the hotel, in the dark! 2. There was no WiFI, even though Wifi was supposed to be available and the reception on my phone to call out was zero. 3. There was no egress or access after 10pmET. 4. There was no outlet to plug in the TV when the AC was plugged in. 5. There was a flood in the room above us, causing the ceiling to collapse while we were asleep and followed by a flood of water entering the room. 6. We checked out at 10:30pm, and was assured by the Hotel Manager that we would not be charged, yet we have a charge on my AMEX.
