Off the Charts!

What a beautiful and welcoming space to enjoy. We couldn't have been more comfortable and appreciate all the thought in the details with guests in mind. Hospitality is kind and delicious breakfasts were off the charts. It couldn't have been a nicer experience!

Wonderful Madison Homebase

We had the most wonderful time in the Mendota Suite this long weekend. The house and rooms are beautiful, and Heidi & Tom are warm, friendly, and helpful with recommendations. We loved Madison even more because of our wonderful homebase at The Buckingham. Thank you! P.S. The food was outstanding!

Loved it!

We were given a gift certificate to The Buckingham Inn as a wedding gift and finally used it on a cold, winter night after a UW basketball game. We stayed in the Varsity Suite and loved everything about it... but the fireplace was perfect!

Can't remember the last time we have been so relaxed and pampered. Congratulations on being one of the Top 10 new B&B's in the nation! No mystery as to why. Thank you for the opportunity to experience the amazing inn that you have crafted, inch-by-inch. What a labor of love - and how that love shines through in everything you do for your guests.
