Anyone ever stayed at B&B
Which one did you stay at? What is it like? How is it different from a regualr hotel, except thatgit is small and all the room are decorated diferently.
Did you at any point feel that you would like a little more privacy?
We are thinking of going to one of those for a long weekend, but I am not sure which one or if it is something we would like. Any info is appreaciated!

Well it totally depends on the B&B and where it is.
We have stayed at many and almost every one has been great. We will actually be staying at 2 different ones this weekend. I usually prefer them to the impersonal feel of a hotel.
Where are you going???

Re: Anyone ever stayed at B&B
we stayed at 2 of them and both times they had bathrooms in the room. I didnt want to share a bathroom with anyone else!
That is one thing you need to watch with B&B's

We don't really have a specific destination yet. We would like to go away for 4 days to a place that has some history, good restaurants, and just an overall pleasant atmosphere.
In all honesty, the reason I was thinking of B & B was becasue they seem romantic and cozy, even tough we always stay at hotels. I am worried that it might be a littel too personal.

Re: Anyone ever stayed at B&B
I love them - you have breakfast with the owners some places but that's about it - unless you WANT to hang with them.
We are going to Lenox, MA and Manchester, VT this weekend and staying at B&Bs. We've stayed at some nice ones out on the North Fork (of LI) and in PA too. I think B&B is the way to go when you are not staying in a city...

Re: Anyone ever stayed at B&B
We just returned from our honeymoon to California and stayed at 4 different B&B's plus 2 well know hotel chains. It was the first time we had ever stayed at B&B's and they were outstanding!!! They were all classified as "luxury inns" and all of them had feather beds, jacuzzi tubs, & fireplaces. You have a lot of privacy and then there also are times when you can get together with the other guests (usually breakfast) and that was really fun too . All the inns we stayed at were members of Select Registry so check I would look into staying at one of their inns. Also, I would make sure the room has a private bath (most of the nice ones do, but I need to have my own bathroom!!!). Have a great time!!

Re: Anyone ever stayed at B&B
we have stayed at a couple of b&b's.. I personally prefer ones that are more like boutique hotels. On some counts-- it's nice to have an afternoon tea or drink and talk to other people there, but we were always the youngest by far. I also don;t like having to sit and eat breakfast with strangers.
I have some good places to reccomend in Cape May and Lambertville.

Re: Anyone ever stayed at B&B
i like them a lot. i have stayed at ones in vermont and in germany. i really liked the ones in vermont, so long as i had my own bathroom. the ones in germany were by far my favourite. i really enjoyed waking up and being in a real german home and having a real german breakfast. it was a nice cultural experience.

My sentiments exactly! I prefer not to mingle with strangers on my vacations that we are taking to spend some quality time together. I just feel that B & B are a little too personal, I think a rather prefer the anonymity of hotels.

Can you go into details? Why did you hate it? Not enough privacy?

Re: Anyone ever stayed at B&B
We just spent the weekend in MA and VT at B&Bs and they were both wonderful - our own room, our own entrance, the dog was welcome, no noise from other guests....and we had our own table and breakfast, our own bathrooms, and a TV in our room at one place. We were in the mountains, on a farm both places, so it was very rural, relaxing, and peaceful. Oh and most do not allow children.

Re: Anyone ever stayed at B&B
We stayed in one in Ithaca. We had our own bathroom. It was great. I'd definitely stay in one again.
