Beautiful property, everyone who appreciates architecture will enjoy it. We stayed in the premium king room facing the street. It was quiet. The area is very walkable. The breakfast was nice, a lot of variety, amazing pastries. They also offer afternoon tea, which we tried once and champagne at 6pm. Overall it was a very pleasant stay. I would rate this property at 4.5 stars.

Overall, I must give this place a stellar rating of 20 out of 10! The staff was exceptional—welcoming, attentive, and always ready to assist with any needs. Kobe and Paul were particularly outstanding; they were incredibly friendly, easy to converse with, and simply fantastic! I chose the Bellwether based on the rave reviews, and it certainly lived up to the hype! The room was stunningly beautiful and cozy. The bathroom was simply breathtaking, with its captivating emerald green and gold accents that exuded an air of luxurious elegance. The entire house exuded a classic and historic charm, yet it was infused with a touch of opulence that made you feel like a star in a timeless film.

Nice, quiet and cute B&B with nice design details and super friendly staff. Not quite the lux spot the listing made it out to be (more like 4 stars than 5) but still a really solid choice if you’re looking for a B&B.

Charming

The Bellweather was very cool. Its an old place made into hotel rooms. We had room 3 which was spacious, comfy bed, awesome tub, the shower was like stepping into the department of mysteries. I loved it. However it was not a quiet room. Noise carries in old places and general noise wasnt a problem but the room backed the wall of the bar and coffee area so you could hear the blender or grinder. Also the back patio was out the bathroom window. So it wasn't terrible but for room 3 just FYI, still a great room. The staff was great, all very nice people. The hotel had breakfast, tea time, champagne toast, they made coffee for us all day. It was such a cool place with so many fun details and amenities. We walked everywhere day, night and felt completely safe. I would 100% stay there again.
Best tub ever

Always quaint and comfortable. The only difference this visit is there was a change in ownership and they’ve gotten rid of their chefs, so the breakfast isn’t homemade nor are the tea bites.
