Had a very quick one night stay. Friday night, so even though there wasn't live music, the sound of the bar below was still enough to interrupt my sleep until they closed. Very simple room/bed/bathroom. Bare bones but clean and in the heart of quaint Mercersburg. Would ask for an upper floor next time if available.
The hotel rooms are above a bar. We were allocated the room just above it (it was a larger room than what we booked). The place is old but mostly clean (except the towels; a couple were stained). We couldnât understand why there were earplugs next to beds. We did later at night: There was a live rock concert in the bar the Saturday we stayed. The earplugs made zero difference â the whole building was reverberating with the noise of the music (like at a rock concert). It stopped after midnight. We should have either been offered a quieter (further away) room, or at least given an advance warning (and opportunity to cancel) about the concert. It might be ok on other days of the week, but we wonât stay here again.
The hotel s really a old stype Inn. There is no front desk or hotel lounge. You go to the Tavern next and receive your key and then go next door and up the stairs to your room. No elevator that I could discern.
If you are good with all of this old style of hotelry... then you are good.
Spacious, great location. Love the history of the place. The bar is loud, but ear plugs are provided. Closes at midnight, so it's not an all-night party.
We had the third floor king suite. Tons of room and very comfortable. Very clean. Great view of the town Christmas tree. The town is very cute and nice for a stroll.
This is an older hotel (as in historic). No elevator, but that wasn't a problem even though I'm a senior. The room was very large, with a sitting area and lots of windows. The only issue was our room was directly above the tavern and on Saturday night, it was quite lively -- live music and sounds of people having fun. It would have been better to go down and join them than trying to sleep! (Quieted down a little after midnight.) However, Sunday night was completely quiet. The town was small and cute with a couple of dining options. However, Monday morning, everything was closed, and we had to go to the next town to find breakfast. Definitely not a deal-breaker however, as this was just a leisurely long weekend trip. If you like small towns and are not wedded to chain hotels, this was a nice place to stay. I would stay there again.
Nice older hotel in a historic town. Perfect for our weekend wedding trip. Missed the point it does. It open until 4 to retrieve the keys. But our stay was nice.
