Clean room, very historical home with historical decor, a bit different to self check in a completely quiet house was a bit spooky but, overall, was good
Played breakfast at 9am was spectacular! Also gave a great chance to talk to other guests and get tips on visiting the area from the chef. Bedroom and bathroom were spacious and comfortable. There was a little road noise and you could hear the neighboring rooms a little - but not much. What a great stay!
We had a lovely overnight stay in celebration of a milestone birthday. Dinner in Harpers Ferry was lovely, as was the very delicious and filling breakfast at the Inn. Thank you!
The staff are extremely friendly and the rooms were clean. Love the history of the inn and the history maintained within the inn! The inn itself is close to a lot (Snallygasters, The Barn, Kelley Farm Kitchen, and Bolivar Bread Bakery are all in walking distance; and Lower Town is less than a mile away). Definitely would love to stay here again!!!
This is an HISTORIC Inn that is very well maintained. The 1st floor common area has sitting rooms that take you back in history. They've decorated rooms like they were in the late 1700's & into the 1800's.
The Innkeepers are super nice. They make you a delicious Inn-cooked breakfast each morning. The frittatas are awesome but everything else is tasty too. Rooms are clean.
We would highly recommend this Inn. If we are back in Harpers Ferry for more overnights, this is the place we will stay.
Parking was fine and we were able to walk to the historic stuff, which saved parking fees!

Clean room, helpful staff, delicious breakfast. Light Horse Inn was conveniently located close to downtown and the hiking trails. I would stay there again!
This is a great place to stay. Fantastic location, 0.8 miles pleasant walk to downtown, right next door to several great restaurants. I stayed in room 4 and it was so large and cozy and the vibes were immaculate. Plenty of parking, convenient to trails, staff was pleasant and accessible but gave you plenty of space and privacy. Nice and quiet at night.
Rooms were nice and cleaned. Breakfast chef was really good and was able to accommodate my wifes’s gluten dietary restriction. The only complaint is the water pressure was very low.
Excellent breakfast, quiet and clean. There is a music venue in the back, and a couple nice restaurants next door (one a wine bar/bistro, one a vegan place). About 20 minute walk from the historic area, about a 20 minute walk from Bolivar Heights. I really enjoyed it.
