We loved our stay at the Smithton Inn.  The owners have kept the feel of the time period but with all of the modern conveniences. Linens, soaps ect. are top of the line!! The winery on site is wonderful with great wine. Breakfast was amazing.  Rebecca and Dave are great hosts and hostesses.  The fire pit outside was a blessing. We were traveling with a group and it provided us with a space to laugh and visit without disturbing other guests.    There is much outdoor space to sit and relax.  Five stars in every category.

Highley recommend this B and B!  

We stayed in the Tailor's Cottage.  The cottage is not a separate building but is separate from the other rooms in the house which made it very private.  The cottage is 2 story - living & kitchen downstairs, bedroom that sleeps 3 & bathroom are up a narrow, winding staircase.  The historic inn was built in the 1700's, a little rustic but still has some of its original charm.  

The cottage was clean and comfortable; it has a kitchenette & dining table; full size refrigerator, microwave, and Keurig which we appreciated for our early morning coffee.

The inn has a wine tasting room, across the hall from the breakfast room, that is opened on the weekend; a selection of bar food is available for purchase along with beverages.  Guests can have breakfast in the dining room or tasting room.

The breakfasts we had were delicious and filling!  Asia, the hostess on duty while we were there is friendly and offered a few sightseeing recommendations.

The location of the inn is pretty central for touring Lancaster and the surrounding Amish/shops areas.  The inn is also close to President James Buchanan home at Wheatland which was a great tour in itself.



Good location for PA Amish area touring

This was one of the nicest Places we have stayed.  The owners were amazing, the atmosphere was over the top and the breakfast was awesome each day.  My wife and I went for a little getaway and were very pleasantly blessed. I highly recommend this for a bed and breakfast getaway. Thank You for making our getaway so special.

What a great place and great atmosphere.

The Inn is a step back into the 1700’s in terms of age of the structure and decor. We had the Tailor’s Cottage for 2 nights. It is so beautiful, comfortable. It has a screened in back porch, which we enjoyed in the evening and morning.   That said, mod cons were present. TV downstairs and up with DirectTV. (Bring your Netflix, prime and/or other sign-in passwords, as they’re available. Jacuzzi in the bath, which we didn’t use and an excellent shower, which we did. Microwave, Kuerig and refrigerator in kitchen. The breakfasts were tasty, varied and not rushed. We ate in the beautiful dining room of the main house.

Welcome to the 1700’s with a touch of 2023.

My husband and I stayed here for our short "baby moon/anniversary" trip to Lancaster County. We stayed in the Red Room; the room was well kept and the amenities were great. Rebecca cooked an amazing breakfast both mornings and was a very friendly host. We appreciated the reserved parking for B&B guests. We wish we could have enjoyed the back yard fire pit and the patio but were unfortunately rained out.
Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Romantic baby moon/anniversary trip

Doesn't get any better!!! 3 of us stayed in the Tailer's Cottage for a girl's weekend and had a fantastic time. Owner/Inn Keeper goes above & beyond. Friendly staff. Food was amazing, room was cozy, clean and had everything we needed... perfect! Coming back in August with my husband.

Girl's Weekend

We decided to stay here for a few nights based on the recommendation of a friend.  I intend to listen to anything that friend tells me in the future.
This is an historic building (18th century), and there are features within the building that display that reality.  That doesn't mean it's in bad shape; it's just that one can appreciate the original flooring in areas as well as the overall setup.  
The proprietors clearly have taken great care to update it while addressing the original aspects of the building.  
The room we stayed in was very comfortable; the breakfasts are to die for, and the B&B is located near some nice eateries and ice cream shops.  It's literally a few minutes away from the historic Ephrata Cloister, and about a half hour from the Strausburg Railroad Museum, definitely worth a visit.  
There's even a pub -like atmosphere in the evenings on the weekend, a first for us from any other B&B we've ever been to.  It's a great way to hang out with the other guests besides breakfast.  Very often visitors want to know about access to irons and microwaves.  There is access to an iron and ironing board, as well as a microwave on the first floor.  The rooms do have a small refrigerator.
Oh, and I have to say that it didn't break the bank for us, and we really appreciated the concerns the proprietor has for guests regarding Covid issues.

Delightful B&B

The Smithton Inn was a wonderful place to stay.  The room was beautiful, with everything we needed for our stay.  It was clean and well furnished.  The owner was very friendly with lots of interesting stories about the Inn.  The location was convenient to everything we wanted to do and see.

Wonderful stay!

A wonderful place to stay! Rebecca and Dave are gracious hosts. The food is amazing and the comforts are too. Highly recommend. We will definitely visit again soon for another long, much needed weekend.

Great B&B

First time at the Smithton Inn and we were very impressed. Our room was perfect and spotlessly clean. Love that each room has a working fireplace! Despite the busy road out front, once inside the traffic sounds melt away and we slept well. Both breakfasts were really good and Rebecca took care to cater to individual tastes and dietary needs. She is also a very friendly and knowledgeable innkeeper who seems to know everything about anything you'd want to do in the area. The only suggestion I have is to keep politics out of breakfast conversation. I feel this is a rule ANY business owner should follow. This is no place for voicing personal political opinions, whether they are the same as ours or the opposite. One quick interaction created a bad memory for us, which is unfortunate.
