My wife and I chose Apalachicola for our first long weekend of the year and had never been to the area before. We looked at all the B&Bs as well as motels and chose the Gibson because of the location and their 3 night special-stay 2 and get the 3rd night free. We also planned on getting tickets to the Patsy Cline show at the Dixie Theater. Initially we were told the Patsy Cline Show was sold out. We wrote the Gibson asking for help locating tickets. PJ from the Gibson called twice to 1) say she had put the word out and 2) say that the Dixie had tickets set aside for us. In addition the Dixie called us to say that the tickets were waiting for us. How is that for service? When we checked in PJ greeted us warmly and wrote a note to the bar to give us free anniversary drinks. The bar was great-good crowd, prices fair, and OK pub food. Dinning room was closed. Search for new chef ongoing. Blues and Jazz on the CD's. The 3 days was outstanding both at the Gibson and in Apalachicola. We already have our rooms for the Halloween Murder Mystery Weekend in October. Oh yes, room was clean and comfortable. Continental breakfast each morning. The Gibson is our place and it should be yours.

The Inn needs a major update all around! The electricity was a huge issue off and on during the Thanksgiving holiday. The food was horrendous. It's really unfortunate because the Gibson Inn is such a integral part of Apalachicola's history but someone needs to take charge!! We visit the area often and will not be back to the Gibson Inn.

This Inn is a historic landmark in the centre of a very pretty and historic Floridian town. The rooms are all very different but beautifully furnished, some with four poster beds. It is spotlessly clean and offers every comfort. There is an excellent restaurant and bar and the reception and bar staff are friendly, warm and helpful. happy hour in the bar is pure joy and frequented by many local characters. The porches have beautiful traditional swing seats and rockers where you can sip a beer or cocktail and watch the sunset or the people. If you are very lucky you may get to meet the famous Lucky-Dog and her thespian human; this will guarantee a very entertaining interlude. I thoroughly recommend the Gibson Inn it's a must for all visitors to Apalchicola. From the Harrisons in the UK.

The Gibson Inn could sure use some updating, BUT the staff is wonderful. They offset everything else!
