My family stayed here for the weekend of the 500. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. Gary does a fantastic job with this place, we quickly felt as if we were long time friends and most welcome. The breakfasts were great. Must admit, I enjoyed having an endless supply of freshly baked cookies available as well. If you do decide to... More

We have been to several B&B's in the past, and our experience at Old Northside was exceptional! Gary, the innkeeper, was very engaging, hospitable and a pleasure to be around. The accommodations were outstanding! We reserved three rooms, each with their own theme. This was for my moms 75th birthday and she was very pleased. The breakfasts were delicious and... More

This was my husband and my first time staying in a B&B. It was a gift from his parents for our one-year wedding anniversary and it couldn't have been more perfect! Gary was hospitable, friendly, and never intrusive. We happened to be the only ones in the B&B that night so it was incredibly peaceful and quiet. In the morning,... More

We found and booked the Old Northside B & B on a last minute whim to drive the 60 miles to Indianapolis and celebrate our 33rd wedding anniversary on December 23. It has a great location which would give easy access to most downtown activities. Good and safe parking. The outside is a bit plain, but the inside is charming... More

We booked the Old Northside B&B for our wedding night before heading to South America. The location is central and greatly accessible to the city. The outside of the building does not give justice to the inner charm and exceptional service. Gary was really helpful. He thinks of everything without being intrusive or awkward. You could talk to him about... More

The inn has great potential. At first glance, it is warm and has friendly innkeepers. We stayed during the week though and hosting must have been too large of an inconvenience. We stayed in the one bedroom downstairs, which is across from the snack bar and has a two inch gap at the bottom of the door. That's not very... More

My wife and I were looking for an excellent getaway the night before we left on our honeymoon. To say the least, we were delightfully surprised. The Old North Side Inn had a "cozy" type feeling about it, something I have yet to experience elsewhere in the state. The staff was excellent and very attentive to our every need. We... More

I am not inclined to write a negative review if I believe a situation was not standard and was beyond the control of the Innkeeper. But if unfortunate experiences are common, as they appear to be if one reads other reviews on this B&B, it is helpful to both potential customers and to the innkeeper to make choices based on...

After our drive, the Inn keeper/owner Gary was present to welcome us & gave us a tour & run down how breakfast operates as you let him know what time you will partake in. He was always available for directions, recommendations, etc. He is a great historian. The Inn is conveniently located just a few minutes drive from downtown. Dining... More

Charming old-town feel with exceedingly warm hospitality and it's own off-street parking (a plus!). Gary is ready to greet you with friendly conversation, informative tidbits and history, and expert local directions...to anyplace you want to venture. Not to worry, if you get lost on the way, he always answers his phone. We stayed 2 nights in the Tiffany room, which... More
