Wonderful Home

I highly recommend this place. Very cozy living area, incredible attention to detail, lots of snacks and water provided. It's great to give business to small business owners--skip the hotel chains and stay here. You will feel good about doing so, and will love your accommodations and the easy access to Main Street.

The location was amazing. Mark was phenomenal. The food was fantastic. Our only criticism is the stain glass window in the bedroom. It let in a lot of the hallway light, which made it difficult to sleep. But that is not enough to detract from the overall experience, we'll be back.

My fiancée and I were in town for a wedding. Our host, Mark, was incredibly hospitable. If we ever return to PN we will certainly be staying here again. I would have paid almost $100 more a night to stay at the recommended hotel, and I know we wouldn't have had even close to the hospitality we were given here. Simply incredible. 11 out of 10.

We stayed overnight, and was most impressed by how Mark had made our stay special in every way. He met us with a warm welcome even though it was late. There were drinks and snacks. The room was elegant, supplied with everything you could possibly need, and the bed was very comfortable. It didn’t stop there. Breakfast was amazing. We’re served with grilled pineapples, fresh berries, yogurt and warm scones, muffins and bread all freshly baked by none other than Mark himself. It was delightful. Thanks to Mark and the rest of the crew who made our stay special.

This is one the BEST, clean, hospitable places ever!!!!! Mark is an absolute delight, attentive, and makes sure each and every guest feels welcome. From the high ceilings and gorgeous chandeliers, to the Persian rugs and hardwood floors, this place honors the history and beauty of the early 1900’s. If you are on the fence about staying in a B&B or you’ve never done it, do yourself a favor…stay here! You will have a restful luxurious good night sleep!

What a lovely place!

What a beautiful row house! It was filled with lovely antiques and beautifully maintained. The amenities were numerous. Many drinks and wine options were available as well as snacks, and the common room had many wonderful books to read and comfortable places to sit. The breakfast really impressive and included exquisite fresh baked goods made on the premises as well as berry crepes and whipped honey yogurt with fresh-baked granola shards. The coffee was absolutely delicious and I enjoyed the company of the other guests.

The breakfasts alone are worth the stay!

The hotel stay was a gift from our daughter and her husband. The food was exquisite, Mark was so warm and accommodating, and the bed was so comfortable that I didn’t want to get out of it. I loved the large multi-sprayer shower. About the food- Mark. Is a talented chef/baker. Everything was personally hand-crafted and baked. Mmmmmmm! Finally, the location was perfect- walking distance to the beautiful and quaint Main Street in Manayunk.

Don't miss this amazing B&B

I stay at B&B's all over the Northeast for work. This is by far one of the very best!! The property is located near the heart of Manayunk yet it's in a relaxed & quiet neighborhood. Fresh flowers adorn the space. Wine, beer and goodies are about for your enjoyment. Mark, the property owner, makes the most amazing breakfast!!! Fresh baked pastries in a warmed basket and a fabulous gourmet breakfast is what awaits you. Not to mention a very kind and caring property owner.

A stylish stay in the heart of downtown Manayunk

We absolutely loved our stay at the Manayunk Chambers Bed & Breakfast! The facility was super clean, classy, and well-decorated. Our host Mark was so friendly and accommodating. The guest house was also very conveniently located within a comfortable walking distance of all the best restaurants and bars that Manayunk has to offer. My only criticism is that the grandfather clock in the entryway was a little loud and my significant other is a light sleeper, so he woke up a few times throughout the night. Overall, amazing experience. Would definitely recommend!

Local Gem in Manayunk!

I’m in Philadelphia pretty regularly for business and decided to stay at a local spot near where I’m working and as a result I stumbled into this great little bed and breakfast. You expect a B&B to be high touch and very accommodating but Mark took that to the next level. From the wine at the door to the cashews to the recommendations for dinner and the fresh baked goods in the morning it was a great stay! Thanks again and i’ll Be back!

Adorable B&B walking distance to Manayunk

I cannot say enough about our awesome host, Mark. After a long ride in bad weather we were greeted by Mark and invited into the cozy parlor with fireplace for refreshment with local beer and soft ptetzels (it’s a philly thing). After relaxing a bit, he showed us our room as well as the other rooms. Lucky us being the first guests to arrive so we could see the other accomations. Each room and bath have been lovingly restored. It is evident that Mark put much effort into assuring each guest’s comfort. Mark is very knowledgeable about the area and offered lots of useful information about the area.

The owners are very kind and gracious. They provide a beautiful five-star breakfast. But I should say that for this high a price there should be a television in the guestroom, and there should be a lock on the door. After a long day at a convention I look forward to catching up on the news - no TV anywhere. The home itself is historic and lovely, but for this room rate - one shouldn't have walls in a state of repair - missing wallcovering in areas - being patched - I think this is not a new condition- the bedside drawer had bits and pieces of door hardware and screws . I really appreciate the efforts by the owners to make this a special experience. If the same TLC shown during breakfast went into the guest rooms I would recommend it.
