“You would have to be crazy to not stay here.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2012 via mobile

I consider myself a lucky man that my wife likes baseball as much as I do. I surprised her with a romantic weekend in Cooperstown for her B'day. When I began calling B&B's Patty and Steve were by far the most inviting. We stayed in a beautiful room. During our stay we looked at all the other rooms which were equally clean and beautifully decorated. Each morning we were lucky enough to have a full homemade breakfast. Custard dipped French toast, omelets and a banana brule which we were fortunate to have Patty send us home with the recipe. Cudos to Steve the chef. We dined ar Alex and Ikas, a recommendation from our hosts, which was a perfect Bday dinner. Patty and Steve made our stay one which we will never forget. We will return. To sum it all up Patty and Steve get it.

“best stay of my life”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 December 2011

This is the place to stay like being home but better, get treated like a king and queen the room very clean all that needed is there.the breakfast is to die for like you where in heavan. wonderfull people.The town of cooperstown has so much more to offer then just baseball, if fact if you do not carry on about baseball the locals will think your a local.i find the fall would be the best time to go, for the fact not over crowed, the shops are wonderfull and not over priced. you feel like your in a norman rockwell painting, just a trip you will never forget,so if to much stress in your life go to cooperstown the inn and the town is like being in a fairy tale.i would give the rose and thistle a 5 star rating and at that i still think that on the low side.I came home very relaxed clear head, and i offen think of the place and miss it so.

“Great stay at The Rose and Thistle B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

My husband and I had never had the privilege of staying at a bed and breakfast. I arranged a surprise birthday trip to Cooperstown, since he is such a huge baseball fan I figured it would be a nice gift, and it truly was. I chose the Rose and Thistle bed and breakfast, and let me say it was a memorable experience. The proprietors Patti and Steve are amazing people who treated us as members of their family upon arrival. They have a beautiful dog named Morgan who is so friendly. I must say my choice to stay at the Rose and Thistle was a great one as the hosts are genuinely warm people who are in the perfect industry, breakfasts by Steve were nothing short of amazing and the great conversations with them were very refreshing and enlightening. I highly recommend for anyone visiting the Cooperstown area to stay at the Rose and Thistle so you can experience their warmth and great food. Pattie and Steve will give you all the insights on where to go and eat in Cooperstown, such a great little town. Loved it! Thanks Patti and Steve.

Room Tip: We stood in "Desiree's Room", it was awesome!

“Lovely Stay at the Rose and Thistle”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011

people found this review helpful

It was my first time in Cooperstown and I found the Rose and Thistle on the internet and it looked lovely. We booked rooms and my friend and I were not disappointed. The Inn is beautiful, the rooms nice and comfortable, the breakfasts were delicous - French Toast one day and blueberry pancakes the next with sausage and bacon. The innkeepers Patti and Steve were friendly and helpful and their little dog Morgan is just adortable! The town of Cooperstown is very quaint and of course we loved the Baseball Hall of Fame. We also had 2 nice dinners, one at Alex and Ika's and the other at Nicolettas. We couldn't have been happier with our stay - hope to return one day!

“Just perfect!”

It's all about the hosts and Steve and Patti are the best. So much fun and they help you with everything. Their house is beautiful and the rooms are nice. Their Inn is a 10-minute walk into town and right across the street from a very good Italian restaurant. Great breakfast, excellent coffee, and British teas. We'll come back some day!
