Circa 1770. Voted one of the country’s best 15 inns by Inn Traveler, this unique, upscale 18th-century Colonial sits in the heart of the historic district within walking distance to shops and restaurants. History is found in every nook and cranny of this inn, built by John Tayloe who was one of the original signers of the Declaration of Independence. Elegant furnishings highlight the tastefully decorated guest bedrooms and suites that feature private baths and comfortable beds covered with 360 count sheets, fluffy pillows and comforters. Savor breakfast with settings of fine china, crystal, silver and linens in the Federal-style dining room. Innkeeper Bonnie’s cookbook is available to bring the inn’s flavor and recipes home.

My stay here was very pleasant, from the 18th c. vibe of the former town home, to the excellent location in Old Town Fredericksburg. At the excellently prepared breakfasts, we met interesting folks from all over the U.S. and Europe. The room was elegantly appointed and looked out on a courtyard.
