Circa 1905. Built as a private home, this 18-room Greek Revival Colonial mansion has served as a convent, an office, a rooming house and is now restored as an magnificent bed and breakfast. An elegant era is reflected in the coffered, beamed and domed-foyer ceilings, leaded- and stained-glass windows, hand-carved mantels and blend of Victorian and Empire decor. Romantic guest bedrooms feature Jacuzzi tubs and wood-burning fireplaces. Savor a satisfying gourmet breakfast served in the dining room or on the patio.

Nashua, NH

When we arrived Rick the innkeeper helped us with our bags. We had a lot of them since we were staying for several nights. We were in the Providence area to visit our daughter. She just gave birth to a new baby girl. We loved our room which had a fireplace and beautiful king size bed. The room was spacious, clean,and comfortable. The breakfasts were different and delicious each day. Wish they were a little earlier but 8-9am worked out fine Joy made coffee at 7 and there was a 24 hr tea and coffee area in the library that was great. The inn was was nice for just lounging an relaxing in the common areas. We will in the spring to visit again and will stay here at Edgewood Manor.

This was a beautiful inn with gorgeous beds and amazing common areas. the library was co comfy and stately and the music room was awesome with the gilded domed ceiling. We had a great breakfast by Joy in the formal dining room and loved it immensely. This is a must stay when in Providence Rhode Island Much better than a stuffy outdated hotel.

Edgewood Manor was the perfect blend of comfort and elegance. We stayed in the scarlets retreat it had a wood burning fireplace that was so romantic and drop dead gorgeous. The room was lovely and the entire inn was spectacular. The common areas were beautiful especially the library. The breakfast was very good with home made blueberry corn muffins and a delicious omelet cooked perfectly.

recently stayed with a late arrival and L explained the rules,and one was that breakfast is served 8am to 9:30ish...arrived at the dinning room at 9:15 am and gave our order to the server...we were told we were late but they would take care of us,by the chef herself,when the orders arrived they weren't correct,I approached the chef and questioned why my order wasn't correct,she informed me that I wasn't given a choice,the server came in at that moment and I questioned her about my order and she hesitated to tell the truth and finally admitted to a might have...I told the chef that I found her rude and totally out of line...her response,"that's your opinion" with no apology,I'm the customer at $229 a nite and the chef is calling me a liar...don't think so...a side note,bathroom amenities lacking,very old tv,3rd floor walk-up...lacks personal attention all around...staff not customer friendly or attentive...elegant venue with no ammenities and extremely unattentive staff.
