Loved my stay at this beautiful historic hotel in Apalachicola. The property is impeccably maintained, full of charm, and beautifully lit at night. There is something special about staying in a place with so much history while still enjoying all the comfort and attention to detail. A wonderful experience from start to finish.

We enjoyed our stay. The room was fantastic. Bed comfy, rooms were very spacious. We enjoyed the bar area at night plus the pool room. The breakfast in the morning was extra, but it was good. People were friendly. It’s nice to stay in a hotel/inn that has been around since 1907. Loved it.
