Nicest Bed and Breakfast I have ever been to! I want to make this my Valentine's Day tradition. So relaxing and beautiful! More

We stayed here for a quick weekend in Philadelphia. This inn is two side by side townhouses in the Italian neighborhood. The location was nice - cute neighborhood to walk around in, and walking distance to the city center (though we took a cab back at night after a full day of sightseeing). We spent most of our time in... More

This was one of our best B&B experiences. Two adjacent buildings, each with a variety of rooms in different decors. (You can view them on the Bella Vista web site) For us, just the right amount of friendliness without being cloying. One recent reviewer seems to like being doted upon and I know many love to chit-chat endlessly with other... More

We stayed the last weekend in October of 2011. I had a room named the sunrise room which shared a bath with I believe Sunset. I have to say everything was very clean. It was eclectically decorated. High ceilings. Bright and sunny. It seemed like staying in a friends extra bedroom. The shared bath also had a kitchenette area. Microwave,... More

My husband and I stayed here this past weekend and I had to laugh while reading the reviews and thought I would give my 2 cents worth. We arrived on Saturday morning and had to drive several times around quite a few blocks to find a "2 hour parking spot" that we could park in to unload our belongings. There... More

This was our first time staying at a B&B and it was even better than we expected. We came to Philly to move my sister to college and wanted to stay for the weekend to do some sight seeing. Our weekend was packed with activities and this was the perfect place to come home to in the evening after a... More

I was traveling alone, sightseeing all day and then coming back at night. I always felt safe, even when I had to walk from 4 blocks away at midnight from my parking spot. Parking is horrendous. The location is wonderful - close enough to walk to the city and the subway. The neighborhood is very quaint and the decor in... More

There are some things that they don't tell you in the down loadable "brochure" nor on the website. The first is about parking and traffic. When we arrived, we dropped off all our stuff in our room, and then went back outside to park. We ended up driving all around a city we did not know, and after 45 minutes,... More

I stayed here for 4 nights in the week prior to Easter 2011. I had never been to Philadelphia and was unsure what to expect and which location to base myself. I was looking for something that was cheapish but nice. In the event, I was very satisfied here. The location was excellent in that it was very atmospheric of... More

We stayed here with a group of family members. Barbara was extremely cordial and offered the use of the common space to all of us for a brunch. The breakfast offerings are basic, but there are 2 good markets and a wonderful cafe, Morning Glory, to supplement. The room rates are very reasonable, so the lack of a "special" breakfast... More
