We went for my birthday, only one night. We loved our room. The fireplace and Jacuzzi tub were amazing. The history of the building helps enhance the experience. We had to leave the main building and walk a few doors up to get to our room and we thought this was fun and unique. The owners were very nice and breakfast was excellent. We can't wait until we can return and spend more than one night in Gettysburg. Parking is an issue, but not in the off season.

February 2014. I would recommend this B and B to anyone. Brain and Joan do a wonderful job in making guests feel welcome in this historic building in Gettysburg. The rooms are exceptionally clean and cozy, the bedding smells divine, as does the breakfast that awaits you the next day. Thank you for everything, Kath and Clive

We stayed at the Brafferton for one night on a weekend getaway, and really enjoyed everything. Gorgeous rooms and common areas (we came in January so we couldn't enjoy the outside, but it looked like it would be lovely in the summer) and friendly, helpful staff. It's well-located, just a block away from the center of town, and has plenty of parking. Only small complaint is that we requested our eggs well-done in the morning, and they came runny, but other than that small thing we enjoyed every part. Particularly impressed with the way the rooms have been done- keeping their old-fashioned charm while having all the amenities of a modern hotel room. Thanks very much.

Bar non, this was the best breakfast I have ever had. I was happy with every part of the experience at this inn. The hosts were most gracious and very nice. I recommend this place to anyone who wants a awesome breakfast and a get away from the normal hotel. The rooms were clean and the atmosphere was quite nice. There was always something interesting to look at.

This was our 5th time staying at the Brafferton Inn. Each time has been wonderful. We have stayed in 3 different suites and each one had something special. The owners Joan and Brian are wonderful host. They make us feel like family each time. Brain makes the breakfasts each morning. They always have at least 3 that you can chose from. I know that you will not go away hungry. We love the suites that have gas fireplaces. They are so warm and inviting. We will be staying at the Brafferton three more times this year.

We stayed in the Bafferton Suite in the Bafferton Inn in Gettysburg on December 29th, our anniversary. In Inn is perfectly located a few dozen yards from the town square and walking distance to nice restaurants, shopping, etc. The suite was wonderful with a two-person jacuzzi, king bed, and sitting room. We added a "romance package," which included dinner at the Dobbin House and campaign and chocolate dipped strawberries. I expected maybe four strawberries and a cheap wine, but the bubbly was nice and the innkeepers gave us 12 (yes, 12!) beautiful and decadent chocolate strawberries. There goes the diet! Breakfast the next day was excellent. We had a wonderful time for our anniversary and we'll be back.

On December 14 my boyfriend and I stayed at this beautiful historic BnB. We chose the Battle room! Upon arrival we where pleasantly greeted by Inn's Owner, he was very nice and made us feel instantly at home. The inn was decorated beautifully with amazing period furniture. The integrity of this historic home was kept beautifully. We where over all satisfied with absolutely everything! Key positive Points: Our room was immaculate- cleanliness is very important to the both of us. There was not a speck of dust or dirt to be found! The sheets where amazing and the bathroom was as clean as I keep mine at home! It was very nice to have the Keurig down stairs with great selections of coffees, teas, hot coco and cookies for us to enjoy for FREE!! The breakfast we were served was outstanding! I can't even begin to explain the muffins!!!!! These pastry like muffins where like something neither me nor my boyfriend have ever had! They where honestly out of this world! There where two things this stay was lacking. Water and a brief explanation as to what the Brafferton's history was. It would have been much appreciated to have small bottles of water next to the coffee selection down stairs. I found myself several times in search of a simple glass of water! Being that this was my boyfriends first trip to Gettysburg we where in search of all the history we could get our hands on. We where both a little disappointed to leave this amazing BnB and not know its significance until researching it on our own. It would have been great to have some history to read in our room! Despite or two tiny complaints this was over all an amazing experience and we will 100% be returning this summer! My Boyfriend and I will always remember our first trip to Gettysburg together. Sincerely thank you Brafferton Inn for making our weekend getaway so special!

The Brafferton is a great historical B&B located in the heart of Gettysburg. The room, food and staff were all AAA+++. I am glad we were able to experience this great Inn and will be there again next year. Nice job.

We two couples were enchanted to be tucked away in the carriage house (attached to the house), with both room suites very large and comfortable with gas fireplaces, one with two bathrooms including a jacuzzi. We had on-site parking in the back and loved Brian's delicious breakfast scrambles and Joan's delicious pastry puffs. We were not supposed to call them muffins, but they were muffins with a creamy filling in the middle and lively toppings. Enthusiastically recommended!!

My husband and I had the pleasure of our first B & B experience at the Brafferton for our one year anniversary. Having never been to Gettysburg, we agreed that the Brafferton provided the perfect central location for our stay, with all the perks and whistles to accompany! The initial greeting was quite welcoming, with a continued warmth of service to follow. We were captivated by the history of the Inn and clean, uniquely themed rooms. Ironically, my husband and I are not big consumers at breakfast, but Brian's dishes made it very hard not to clean our plates. His homemade breakfast breads and pastries were simply to die for! Surely, we were geared up for the long day of shopping and sightseeing ahead of us. The freshly baked afternoon cookies were a nice treat, as well, upon our return. Thanks to the Brafferton, the Blackfords are lifetime B & B lovers and will continue our newfound anniversary tradition. Surely, we will return and forever recommend this Inn to our family and friends!

My girlfriend and I wanted to get away from the DC scene for a night and decided to head to Gettysburg. I basically stumbled across the Brafferton Inn randomly on the internet, but am I glad that I did! The Brafferton Inn crew (Brian and Joan) were super friendly and welcoming. Our room was very clean and the jacuzzi tub compensated nicely for the cold winds outside. Its location near the town center is perfect and its size is big enough to feel a sense of privacy while small enough to feel intimate. In the morning, Brian displayed excellent skills in the kitchen as he prepared a tasty breakfast and really went out of his way to accommodate my girlfriend (who is vegan). If thinking about a trip to Gettysburg, then definitely check this place out!

My husband and I spent Veteran's Day weekend at the Brafferton Inn. We wanted to sightsee in Gettysburg and found this Inn online. It was AMAZING. We stayed in the Eisenhower Room and it was perfect! A large spacious room with nice bathroom, little kitchen area with my FAVORITE Keurig coffee, window seat, comfy bed, and nice TV. But the best part was the two cozy reading chairs next to the gas fireplace. It was so nice to get up on a chilly November morning, sip coffee by the fire and read a good book until we went down for a scrumptious breakfast. We have never stayed in a B&B with so many choices for breakfast. The location was great for walking to shopping and restaurants and some siteseeing. We also went to a fun play at the historic Majestic theater around the corner. The Innkeeper lent us a driving tour CD of the historic battlefields and we spent a nice afternoon learning and taking photos. We walked to delcious dinners at an Irish Pub and a Historic Tavern. Great location! Fantastic weekend! We will certainly return to the Brafferton Inn!!

This was our first B&B experience and it was FABULOUS! We stayed in the Garden Room and loved the touch of shabby chic deco and the multi levels of bed and baths. The breakfasts were really good and you have a choice of entree's. The hosts were very nice too! I highly recommend staying here in the heart of Gettysburg.

My husband and I went to Gettysburg for our late honeymoon this last summer. We wanted to be somewhere where we could park our car and be near everything. The room we had was the Brafferton Suite, it was a great room. It had space to move around and enjoyed the surroundings. The room is on a busy street so you will hear traffic noise but it was still a great room. It was nice to have the parking space also that came with the room because everywhere you go there is metered parking. I would go back to this inn again. Loved the place and people who own/run it.

We're frequent Gettysburg visitors. We've stayed in other places but found that there's none that we prefer more than the Brafferton Inn so now we just go directly there. Every room that we've stayed in is charming and cozy. The beds are super comfortable. It's situated in an area that's convenient to access parking and shopping. Joan and Brian (and the rest of the staff) are so nice and not at all phony. The environment of the Inn is casual and comfortable and always smells like something yummy is baking in the kitchen. The breakfasts are always delicious with enough variety to suit everyone's taste. We consider it our home away from home.

The Brafferton Inn was a wonderful place to stay. We stayed in the Loft Suite and it was very nice.

Stayed here after proposing to my now fiancée. The staff was incredibly personable and welcoming. I had mentioned the situation surrounding our visit when making the reservation, and the staff quickly congratulated us once we arrived. We were also on a tight schedule, and Joan let us check in early, which was really helpful. Upon arriving, they gave us a quick but comprehensive tour of the area we were staying. The room itself was gorgeous. (We legitimately took pictures of the bathroom to use as a model for our own.) The bedroom and living room we're spacious. The decor had a antique feel, but it wasn't tacky. The layout of the actual space was actually quite modern, which was nice. Food was all home cooked and delicious. The muffins were out of this world. It is on the pricey side, but well worth every penny. We will definitely be returning.

We stayed for three nights at the Brafferton Inn, and it was a highlight of our trip. The location is perfect, and you are able to walk, or get public transportation to any of the attractions in Gettysburg. The Inn is very charming and the rooms are well appointed, comfortable, and nicely decorated. Breakfast was outstanding, with good selections and delicious food. The afternoon cookies were a real treat, as well. We highly recommend the Brafferton Inn, and hope to return someday.

My husband and I had the pleasure of spending three nights at the Brafferton Inn in late September 2013. We called to see if we could arrive one day early, which Brian graciously arranged. We were in a one bedroom suite with 2 bathrooms the first night! The second and third night we transferred to the Pear Tree, another one bedroom suite with lovely outside private garden. Both rooms had flat screen TVs, fireplaces, were huge and had whirlpool bathtubs, lots of counter space, separate showers. The inn is spotless, located nearly at the center of Gettysburg and within walking distance of everything. The inn owners were very helpful with suggestions of restaurants and things to do in town. Brian's breakfasts were the most impressive, with fresh fruit, fresh baked pastry each morning, and a choice of a breakfast casserole, two different scrambled egg dishes and pancakes or French toast every morning. I highly recommend a long stay at the inn.

Our experience at The Brafferton Inn exceeded our expectations as the setting for three siblings and spouses to reconnect and enjoy the Gettysburg area. We found Joan and Brian to be professional, pleasant, helpful, and willing to answer questions and to give recommendations for a variety of restaurants. The setting in downtown Gettysburg was an added benefit. Breakfasts were delicious with a fresh pastry made by Joan and several savory choices cooked to perfection by Brian each morning. Absolutely, we would recommend The Brafferton to friends who desire first class accommodations in an historic setting.

Highly recommend this well-situated, impeccably run, wonderfully friendly inn. A beautiful, historic premises is only a small part of the appeal. The mother-son proprietors go out of their way to make your stay memorable and the breakfast is THE BEST I've ever experienced in any B&B (and I travel a lot!) This should definitely be your pick in Gettysburg.

My husband & I, along with my mother, stayed in the Pear Tree Suite for two nights. The suite was very spacious, beautifully decorated and far larger than we had expected. We loved the private entrance with parking and the patio garden was perfect for relaxing. The downtown location gave a true feel of the city and was just steps from the wonderful shops and activities. I was surprised how quiet it was even in downtown. The breakfast selection provided each morning was incredible and absolutely huge. Fresh fruit, pastries, entrées….no one leaves here hungry! Brian and his family were a joy to meet and we will definitely be staying at the Brafferton Inn again.

We came for bike week the second weekend in July. All the other hotels had risen the rates sky high for the reenactment and the events going on. We found such a deal in the Brafferton Inn. We had a lovely suite all to ourselves in the loft. My husband and I enjoyed the homey feel with fresh coffee any time of the day, an outstanding breakfast and our room was more than we had ever expected. We will definitely be back again maybe this winter to see more of the town and sight see!

Stayed 4 nights during the Gettysburg 150th Anniversary. They raised their normal rates a bit, but not horribly much as some other facilities did. Room was very nice (Deck Suite), we looked into some others that looked good as well. One thing to highlight, the breakfast was wonderful! Well organized and served, with gourmet-quality food. In an interesting note for a place that is going for an upscale presentation, they only had one-ply toilet paper. Rougher than we expected, but they said it was due to the age of their plumbing. :)
Réponse du propriétaire
Thank you for your review. We really had a great time getting to know you, and are very happy you enjoyed your stay and our breakfasts. A note on toilet paper: our pipes and plumbing are very old, and unfortunately we have had major issues mainly due to guests flushing things down the toilets that should not be flushed. Plumbers have repeatedly told us to use thinner toilet paper that will disintegrate. One of the downfalls of an old house.

We probably didn't pick the best time to make our first trip to Gettysburg being over the July 4th holiday on the 150th anniversary of the battle. While we enjoyed staying at The Brafferton Inn we did have a few concerns. Here are the pros and cons. Pros: beautiful well maintained historic building, rooms were clean, staff was accommodating, convenient location, good breakfast, health conscience menu, nice deck and several nice peaceful locations around the grounds to relax, good security. Cons: we stayed in the North Suite which is located in the back of the building up many narrow stairs outside. Thank goodness we brought a small cooler, for we would have never gotten the big one to our room. Again the stairs lugging a big heavy suitcase was difficult. WIFI was only available in the small lobby area, but the electrical outlets were not compatible with a grounded plug, so no way of having your laptop on charge while online. The lobby was kept very warm: even though I love warm weather and keep my house 78 degrees year around, it was hot and stuffy in the lobby. Overall, it was a good stay and it is difficult to compare a stay on the road to the convenience of home. I would rate our stay an 8 of 10, with 10 being the best.

Our first trip to Gettysburg was made even better by our luck of finding the Brafferton. Right where you want to be in such a historical town. The inn is very comfortable, food delicious and the innkeepers very professional. We love staying at B&B's and this one is ideal.

I would definitely recommend this B&B for anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing getaway. There are many rooms here, yet I felt like we were the only guests; it has a great small-town atmosphere. We stayed in the North Suite. It was very private and overlooked the garden in the back. The staff was warm and friendly, the room was clean and looked just like it did in the pictures.

We loved it the charm of being in one of the oldest buildings in Gettysburg, thought we would mind no tv but we didn't miss it. Loved being only 1/2 block from square. They even offered to feed the parking meter at 8 AM for us so we wouldn't get a ticket. Everyone was very friendly, breakfast was so good and a lot of choices. Would go back another time

Stayed at Brafferton this past weekend and loved it! The food was especially memorable...the chef had 3-4 choices of breakfast entries and at least one was vegetarian (which we are). Usually wanted more than one of the choices! We stayed in the Brafferton Suite and the only complaint I had was that it was right on the street and it was pretty noisy with trucks, motorcycles, etc. So if you stay there in that room or others right on the street, bring a white noise machine or earplugs. The Inn is very conveniently located near tourist attractions, the college where we were attending a reunion, and restaurants. Would definitely stay there again!

After much research into different B&B's in the area we decided on 2. After talking with each of the places on the phone we decided to stay at the Brafferton. I could not have been any more happier staying any place else. Brian, his family and everybody else made our stay one we will never forget. We stayed from March 10 - 15th. We were greeted the moment we parked the car and was offered help with our luggage. We were upgraded to a bigger room without extra cost. The room itself was outstanding. Fireplace, large sitting area, balcony, and 2 person jacuzzi. The perfect place to stay. Staff we wonderful in helping plan our visitation sites and offering other areas of interest. The food was fabulous. I had to buy the cookbook to get some of the recipes. There were only two downsides I could find and they were pretty minor. There is no wifi in the buildings of the B&B outside the main building and the other is the parking. We were lucky enough to have a private parking place at the B&B but if you don't get those particular rooms there is a parking garage directly behind the B&B. Overall, we had a fantastic stay during spring break and if we are able to return to this area we will definitely be staying at the Brafferton Inn again. Brian, Joan and all - thank you for a wonderful stay.

The breakfast was great and included four or five choices. We especially appreciated the delicious home made cookies in the afternoon. Can't beat the location.

My wife and I stayed at the Codori Suite for a weekend & I honestly cant think of anything that could have made our stay any more enjoyable ! The Inn sits at a perfect location for dinning, shopping, & all the fun things that downtown Gettysburg has to offer. The room is amazing ! The entire Inn has all the vintage charm that an 18th century home should, but all the modern accommodations that make a 3 day 2 night stay pleasant. Everything from the furniture, to the lighting, the K-Cup coffee selection, even the bedding was an A+ ! The building has fantastic history, as Brian pointed out that it's one of the oldest buildings in Gettysburg. The breakfast is top-notch, consisting of several courses, amazing food & a pleasant dinning atmosphere. Lastly, Brian, Joan, and the staff at the Inn were great, very outgoing, always there to serve, but hardly noticable. I found Brian to be particular engaging & a pleasure to chat with. Can't wait untill our next get-away to the Brafferton, a first class establishment from top to bottom !

My husband and stayed in the battle room for a night last weekend and had a wonderful time. The staff was friendly and the room was wonderful. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom was beautifully decorated. The battle room was one of the less costly rooms so it didn't have a jetted tub or fireplace, which was fine considering the low price and that we were only there one night. Our bathroom was a little on the worn side and didn't really match up to the greatness of the bedroom. The bathroom was a little worn and had some water stains on the lower section of the walls. However, that was just one small note because everything else was fantastic and well worth the cost! I've read some complaints about the parking, but it didn't bother us one bit, our spot ended up being free and if u did need to pay to park it's not very much at all. Great place! Would highly recommend this b&b to anyone interested in a relaxing weekend. We're definitely coming back!

My husband and I stayed at the Brafferton Inn in the Brafferton Suite and were so pleased with our stay. The staff and owners were so curteous and kind. Our room was beautiful and so clean and tidy. Breakfast was served right on schedule and absolutely delicious. Joan's pastries are phenominal!! You are given a choice of two to three entrees...you will really struggle to choose one because they all sound delicious. The personal touches are great, such as freshly baked cookies any time after 3:00pm and coffee any time of the day or night. I will definitely be staying here again and highly recommend it for your next trip to Gettysburg!

The innkeepers were very friendly and welcoming - made you feel right at home. The building itself is in keeping with the historic era and was quaint and cozy. I didn't much care for the incense or candle that fills the main space, but overall it was a very pleasant stay. Note that there are no TV's in the rooms which is a nice reprieve from normal life, but I thought it would be even nicer if they had a card table or cozy nook downstairs and offered some puzzles, board games or playing cards for guests to use during down time. The serve yourself tea and coffee setup and afternoon cookies were a great added amenity that we enjoyed. But the morning breakfasts were this inn's best comfort - nothing like home cooking and fresh juice to get your day going! We would recommend this inn to friends and family.

Thank you for your review of our inn. Just a few notes. We do not burn candles or use incense, so we are not quite sure what this guest is talking about as far as smells in our parlor area. And only three of our guest rooms do not have televisions, as they are period rooms from 1786. We are so glad these guests enjoyed our breakfast! We truly enjoy cooking a variety of different and unique hearty breakfasts to start our guests mornings!

We do not normally use bed and breakfast accommodations but the Brafferton has converted us. We were just traveling through and just stayed one night. The suite was immaculate, the owners greeted us at the door, we were provided a tour....the Inn was presented perfectly and our stay was perfect.....looking forward to making the Brafferton Inn a destination for a long weekend very soon....There are several reasons for visiting Gettysburg, PA and the Brafferton Inn is tops on our list...

We stayed at the Brafferton Inn last Friday night when we went to Gettysburg to see a show at the Majestic theatre and were very pleasantly surprised at the overall stay at there. From the one doorway on the main York St., Route 30, you get overwhelmed when you enter that doorway. The owner greeted us immediately and her assistant showed us through the facility which is awsome. They immediately provided us with all the information that we could want for that area. At 4 p.m., there were delicious cookies available and we were given dinner recommendations. Another owner greeted us so we knew we were in great hands. The Lincoln suite with its own air control and incredible 5 faucet shower was large, immaculate and very accommodating. The culminating experience was a three entree choice for breakfast all of which was sumptuous. We definitely will return to the Brafferton Inn in the spring of 2013 and recommend it highly for anyone who visits Gettysburg.With all their rooms, there is definitely one for all tastes and desires.

Dorothy's Hideaway has everything you need in a room for a weekend getaway including a superb bed and Jacuzzi tub. The inn is lovely, well-maintained and convenient to the area's attractions. Joan, Brian and the rest of the staff were uniformly cordial and helpful with information on dining options. Excellent breakfasts with a variety of options. We visited in mid-December, but the Brafferton seems like it would be splendid at any time of the year. Would definitely return.

My husband and I stayed at the Brafferton Inn on our honeymoon and were very happy! The Inn is incredibly clean, the location is perfect for downtown shopping, and the innkeepers are very kind! We were talking and in passing told them that we had just got married, and they upgraded us to the BEAUTIFUL Lincoln suite, so generous! We highly recommend this B&B!

Wonderful! We stayed at the Brafferton Inn's Old Orchard Guest House on November 17-18, 2012. Outstanding accommodations, impeccably clean, and the staff were attentive and easy to work with. The house address is 313 Baltimore Street which is centrally located near all major historic sites and attractions. A great place to stay in Gettysburg for a family or couples traveling together.

My husband and I stayed here for our wedding anniversary. The inn keepers were very personable and knowledgeable about current attractions. The breakfast was wonderful!

The gardens were beautiful and serene. We will definitely be staying here again.

We have been coming to the Brafferton even before Brian and Joan bought the inn, and each time we stay there, we are amazed and delighted at all the nice extras and rooms they have added! In my opinion, the Brafferton's Codori Suite and Pear Tree Suite are the two best rooms in Gettysburg...and absolutely NOTHING beats the wonderful breakfasts the Hodges' cook up each each morning! Looking forward to going back in the near future and see what else they have added!

A friend had recommended the Brafferton Inn to me for a girls getaway weekend and I was extremely pleased with the B&B. We stayed in the Codori Suite and it exceeded my expectations. It had all the comforts of a modern day place with the charm of a historic building. Everything was extremely clean and tidy and we were lacking nothing in our room. The service was superb and I can't stop talking about how wonderful breakfast was. I would highly recommend this B&B to others!!

My husband and I stayed in the Codori Suite October 22-24. This was our first trip alone without the kids since our honeymoon 7 years ago. We had an amazing time!!! The Brafferton Inn was so lovely and the Cordori Suite was very romantic! The staff was very courtious and helpful, they met all of our every needs. The suite was very clean and well appointed. We loved having our own jacuzzi tub, spa shower, private parking space, coffee Keurig and a livingroom with a TV and fireplace. The Inn was very conveniently located downtown in walking distance of shops, restuaunts and attractions.The food was amazing, especially the breakfast muffins. We actually bought one of their cookbooks so we could make the muffins ourself. We definitely will go back to Gettysburg again.We will stay at the Brafferton Inn and in the Cordori Suite again. We would like to thank the staff at the Brafferton Inn for making our first trip to Gettysburg a very memerable and special one. We will be sure to recommend you to our family and friends. Thankyou so much, we look forward to seeing you again!

This is a very charming inn close to downtown shops and restaurants in Gettysburg. One of the amenities listed is WiFI, but this is only available in the lobby and rooms in the main building. We stayed in a room over a shop that did not have WiFi, but didn't know that before arrival. We had a wonderful visit; comfortable beds, very clean rooms every day. Nice owners.

We just stayed at the Brafferton for the second time in the Pear Tree Suite. What a comfortable, large and well-appointed space. Large king-sized bed in living room area, with small kitchen which included a refrigerator, microwave and Kurig coffee maker. There was also a gas fireplace, and flat-screen TV. Adjacent was a dining area with table and chairs and separate bedroom with daybed and another smaller flat-screen TV. The bathroom was huge with two sinks, robes, spa shower and tub. There is a gated patio which makes for a nice, relaxing cup of coffee or tea in the morning or drinks later in the day, weather permitting. One of the best amenities is you have your own parking space in the back. No worries about finding a parking spot on the street or in the garage which makes for easy access. Plus, no stairs to climb if that's an issue. We can't say enough how scrumptious the breakfasts were! Best ever we've had at any B&B in G'burg. Many choices ranging from egg casseroles to stiffed French toast, pancakes or delicious scrambled eggs, all served with juice, coffee, fresh fruit and a fantastic baked muffin. Believe me, you won't need to eat lunch. Coffee is also served in the waiting area and in the afternoon with fresh-baked cookies. The owners are always friendly and accommodating, and if you're a repeat customer, they give you a discount. As many times as we come to G'burg and stayed at many B&Bs, we decided this is the one we'll be booking from now on. Their other rooms are great, too! It's a wonderful historic inn, I believe the oldest, which is what we like.

Our stay at the Inn was very nice and the inkeepers were very curteous. Breakfast was phenomenal (especially the lemon poppyseed puff pastries). However, my only complaint is about the menus that the Inn has for local restaurants. We picked two restaurants to go to based on the menus that we saw at the Inn, and at both places the menus were different and VERY dissapointing. I would recommend for them to get copies of the current menus.

My Mother, two sisters and myself enjoyed four nights in the Gettys Suite! We were all surprised how roomy this suite was and each time we returned it was like entering our own apartment. My older sister remarked that this room just seemed to fit us like no other. Having our own private parking spot to use was another plus. The breakfasts each morning were tasty and something to look forward to. It was wonderful to be given such a selection of choice so there was something for everyone. Even though the dining room is small it has a quaint atmosphere. Sad to say there were two drawbacks for us. The first is the step leading in to the Gettys Suite. My Mother and sister are both in their eighties so it was very hard on them while entering and leaving our suite. The other thing is the noisiness of the pipes in the bedroom with the twin beds. The clicking through the night and early morning is disturbing but we realize this is a historic building. Even with all that we hope to return next year God willing. The Brafferton is very clean and the location is just right. Thank you once again to the owners and staff!

We stayed in the Dorothy room which is in a building a few doors down from the main inn. The room was nicely appointed, private & spacious. However, was disappointed when we saw the porch was facing the side of another building. We were also surprised to find the windows only had think white curtains for privacy in lieu of shades. The breakfast were outstanding and sell the inn day after day. The pastries are out of this world and the main dish selections are mouthwatering. Between the prime downtown location, and the breakfast this is the perfect stay.

If I could give the Brafferton Inn more than 5 stars on Dining I would. Breakfast was more than excellent on all counts (taste, variety, and portion). The Inn itself is beautiful inside and out and the staff was wonderful. It would be nice if the Inn had private parking, but you're not going to find that anywhere in downtown Gettysburg, especially with this location (walking distance to everything in town, including the battlefields and college.) Plus, there's a parking garage within a few feet of the Inn, so you really can't complain. We loved our stay there and would absolutely stay again.

What a great place to stay. We had a Sat and Sun night reservation. We were greeted immediately and shown around the house and to our rooms. The room was just right, we stayed in the Loft Suite. I need to mention that the breakfasts were out of this world. Always had four choices when it came to the main meal. All of which were as good as the one you picked. Highly recommend to all.

I had been wanting to see the Gettysburg battlefield site and other Civil War areas for the past 20 years. I finally decided it was time to do it, with my husband finally agreeing to get off the golf course and accompany me. I researched different places to stay for our 9-day trip and picked three in different places in Pennslyvania and Marlyand. Of the three, hands down, the Brafferton was the best! We stayed in the Gettys Suite. It was decorated beautifully, located in the rear portion of the inn (nice and quiet), and was very cozy and inviting. Brian and Joan couldn't have been any nicer or accomodating. They directed us to eating locations for dinner, supermarkets, and even scheduled a day trip to Washington DC for us. Breakfasts were out of this world, and Joan is the greatest baker on earth. Thankfully, we walked all around the battlefield in order to work off the meals. We had to meet the bus for the Washington DC trip very early in the morning, so they provided a bagged breakfast! We can't convey in words what a great time we had. We strongly recommend this inn for anyone who wants to experience what a historical bed and breakfast is all about!

I took my husband to the Brafferton for his 50th Birthday. This was our 3rd stay in this Bed & Breakfast. First time we stayed in the Lincoln Suite which was very nice and big. Our last 2 times we stayed in the Codori Suite which is just gorgeous! The Innkeepers are just so nice and so accommodating. For my husband's birthday weekend I decided to have them add a birthday cake, chocolate covered strawberries, wine and cheese/crackers to our room. The spread they put out was nothing like I could have imagined. Everything was so perfect and delicious!!!! They really did an excellent job in making our weekend and his birthday so special. This is one Gem of a Bed & Breakfast and speaking of Breakfast.........YUM........that about sums it up. We will go back as often as we can !

My husband and I traveled with our daughter and her friend (13 yr olds) over labor day weekened. We stayed in the Pear Tree suite which was perfect for our family! We were first greeted by Brian who gave us a tour of the Inn and informed us that he was baking fresh cookies (these quickly became a favorite of the girls). The Suite was beautiful, clean and very comfortable! The girls called the sheets "amazing" and loved the spacious bathroom and the seperate room with twin bed and trundle pull out. Breakfast were fantastic as well, each morning we had a choice of 4 different breakfasts as well as fresh fruit and homeade pasteries. We would certainly recommend this B&B and would certainly return! Thank you for a lovely weekend! The Howards

I arrived at the Brafferton Inn and was given a tour of the beautiful 18th century B & B and explained the parking and the different options available. I was then shown to my lodgings, located above a shop. I had my own entrance on York street, just a few blocks from Lincoln Square. My room had a charming sitting area over looking York street, and a bathtub with jets -like a whirlpool. The bathroom window was covered with a blind, and I would have felt more comfortable with half shutters, since it faced another window. My children had ordered gifts- which the Inn placed in my rooms and provided the necessary items to enjoy these gifts. Any reservations needed they offered to make for me. My first morning I had an appointment, missing my breakfast and was offered a take away breakfast. I found the tables in the dining area were set up for each guest. I had my own table situated nicely and already laden with a small bowl of fresh cut up fruit and a homemade muffin. The chef would offer 3 choices for our entree-It was luxury. Recommend by the B&B was the Shriver home museum offering the civilian's point of view during the great battle of July 1,2 & 3 of 1863. Each day my room was freshened up and each night I slept soundly under the soft covers as the A/C kept the room at a perfect temperature. I truly enjoyed my stay, and any questions I had or directions would be quickly answered. Important to know since it can be easily missed- is the parking is the responsibility of the guest since there is limited parking-but if you need quarters, the Inn can exchange your bills for quarters. One other note- the Inn was up front with the charges- and I inquired about AAA and they accepted it- I liked receiving emails concerning the needed deposit- and close to my trip what my balance was-no hidden charges. .

The Brafferton is beautiful! Our room, the garden room, was perfect. It was clean, comfortable, and the garden theme gave off a refreshing vibe. Our breakfasts were delicious! The fresh fruit and homemade muffins were so good! They were also accomodating when I asked for plain french toast instead of french toast with raspberry filling. :) Overall, our stay was wonderful.

It was wonderful to see you and your friends again here for the annual bike weekend. As far as breakfast, we generally do not serve outside when temps are 90+ degrees, and since we were in the middle of a huge east coast heatwave, did not feel is was appropriate. Our dining room inside is very quaint, since it is the originally dining room of the house. We do have six tables, most set up for two and one set up for four. If there are different families of four traveling here at the house, if is just not physically possable for everyone to sit together. It must be noted that you did sit together for breakfast on your first breakfast. Thanks again!

Everything was great - from the orientation given by our host, Joan, to the hearty breakfast served in the morning. We stayed in the loft suite which was two bedrooms and 1 bathroom. It was extremely roomy and even included a small fridge. The location can't be beat for walking around town. It is in the center of everything. The only negative would be that the bed wasn't super comfortable - but that is really a personal thing.

My wife and I stayed here on a trip south from New England. I had researched several different inns but the age and history made this one the most appealing. Our stay was great and the room was huge and comfortable (we were upgraded to the Lincoln Suite). If was clean and we were allowed to keep our bike in their Garage for the evening. The breakfast was very good as well with several options to choose from (which is not always typical in a B & B), so that was a nice change.The staff was helpful and welcoming. My only complaint with my stay was this: When I booked the room, I had originally wanted the loft room, it seemed very unique and was part of the original home. It was not available, so I took the Olde Master room. It was not as expensive and was still part of the original home. I made a comment when I booked the room, that if, for some reason the loft became available, that I would like that room instead. I did not ask for an upgrade. When I checked in, they mentioned that I was able to be upgraded, but not to the loft, to the Lincoln Suite. They did not mention any added expense. After working in the travel industry, I took this to mean that a better room was available and I could take it. When I checked I out I was under the impression that I had the balance for the romance package I requested. I was then told that that did not include the cost of the upgrade. The added cost was not relayed to me when I checked in. It should have been. As I mentioned, I asked for the loft, if available, not a suite. I did not argue and the suite was a very nice room, but it was almost 100 extra dollars I did not plan on spending, unless for the loft. Overall I liked the inn and my wife and I enjoyed our stay, but I should have been told about the added expense of the new room.

Was greeted by a drill sargent. Absolutlely no warmth was displayed. Was barked at and told the rules of the house. Parking was extremely confusing. Once I got to my room I found out that the bathroom was across the hall and they were" kind enough to provide me a robe" The web site was very misleading in that the clear implication was that the room had a private bath. I would have chosen another room if I would have known the bathroom situation. Was too tired to argue and did not want to deal with the drill sargent. In travelling around the city noticed many other B&B's. I am positive that one could do much better. Unless you yearn to be in the army and barked at like a private avoid this place.

I am so sorry this guest was unhappy with his/her experience here at the Brafferton Inn. We take great pride in providing a comfortable and friendly experience here at our inn, as our other reviews state. We certainly try not to bark orders at our guests at check in time, but guests do need to know how to get in and out of the house, and where we serve breakfast etc.
As far as our rooms, we do provide 17 different types of rooms, ranging from older 1786 bedrooms, to luxury suites with Jacuzzi tubs and gas fireplaces. This guest chose a bedroom in our 1786 house that clearly states on our website that the bathroom is across the hall and is private to this room. This is the only room in our entire complex that does not have the bathroom inside the room. We could certainly have moved this guest to another room if they were that unhappy.
Please remember to read all reviews posted here on bedandbreakfast.com to get a feel for what we truly do offer as a guest experience. Thank You

My niece and I recently stayed at The Brafferton Inn and our visit was wonderful. Joan and Brian make you feel at home. We stayed in the Pear Tree Suite which has its own private courtyard. The suite was spacious, beautiful and very charming. Our breakfast choices each morning were wonderful. The meals were generous as well as delicious. Joan was very helpful in recommending local restaurants for lunch and dinner. We were not disappointed with her recommendations. We asked Joan where she buys her flowers and plants and she shared this information with us as well. When we left Gettysburg, our car was full of local art work, gifts as well as trees and plants! Gettysburg is one of our favorite stops not only for the history but also for the friendliness shown by all we met. Our stay at The Brafferton made our visit extra special. Joan and Brian we thank you for your hospitality. Gettyburg, we thank you for a wonderful stay. We can't wait to visit again.

The Brafferton .... what can we say .... we LOVE this beautiful Inn! We have stayed here on several occasions over the past few years and we can't get enough time spent at this quiet & charming retreat in historic Gettysburg. The suites and rooms are perfectly appointed (we have stayed in a variety of each) and offer complete comfort & relaxation after a day of sightseeing or shopping. They have managed the perfect mix of modern day luxury (spa showers, jacuzzi baths, flat-screen tv, etc) while keeping with the look and feel of being in a historic home. A great night's sleep is followed by a gourmet breakfast - complete with homemade pastries that are to die for! If we could sneak extra, we would! If you have questions about tours, dining, shopping etc - just ask Joan, Brian or AmyBeth - they are gracious and accommodating when it comes to the needs of their guests and have a wealth of knowledge about the community. The only downside to the visit is that you do eventually have to check-out. If you haven't had the opportunity to stay at the Brafferton, try it - we guarantee you won't be disappointed. We look forward to returning this summer! The Schlegels

My boyfriend and I were looking for a weekend getaway from the DC area, so on a whim I booked us the Brafferton Suite and was not disappointed. From the moment we checked in, everyone was friendly and helpful. Our suite was absolutely beautiful. Between the enormous. comfortable king bed, fireplace, Jacuzzi for two, and Keurig machine in our room, we experienced the perfect space to relax and recharge. We were not located in the main house, and so there was no noise from neighbors. Both breakfasts were incredible. The owners cook completely different menus every morning and offer fresh fruit and scrumptious pastries in addition to the main dish. Gettysburg itself is a very friendly town where the local shop and restaurant owners treat you like friends rather than strangers. When you're done shopping and dining. I recommend touring the battlefield. It is a truly humbling experience. If you run out of places to visit in Gettysburg proper, there are several wineries and vineyards in the area. It's only a 45 minute drive from Hershey and Indian Echo Caverns (both are really cool places to visit!), and about an hour from the Turkey Hill Ice cream factory. I would rate the overall experience higher than Outstanding if I could. I highly recommend this Inn and will be returning regularly!

The accommodations at this Inn were superb. The innkeepers were extremely gracious and friendly, real down to earth folks, not stuffy. The breakfasts were not our usual morning fare, very unique and delicious. The staff was also very accommodating, willing to offer suggestions in regard to the most interesting places to visit since our stay was only two days. The rooms and bathrooms were immaculately clean, and the decor and furniture were tasteful and appropriate to the Civil War era. Besides the Battlefield, there are many more interesting and historic sites to visit in this Civil War town. Great shopping, antiquing, great restaurants and also plenty of ghost sighting tours. There certainly is enough tourist attractions year round. My husband and I will be back next year to continue on! Thanks again Brian and Joan. FRD

My husband and I stayed here the weekend of October 28th. It was a wonderful experience being it was my first time to Gettysburgh and our first time at a B&B. With the crazy snow storm that Gettysburgh got that weekend the jacuzzi tub came in handy. We will definately be going back to the Brafferton Inn again!! Breakfasts were awesome!!!

This was a place that my brother-in-law booked for our family. It was the only place he could find on short notice that could accommodate all of us. The place turned out to be outstanding. Each room was more beautiful than the next. Every room was immaculately clean. The breakfasts were so delicious. I am still telling everyone about the cinnamon apple muffins. YUMMY!!! One of my sisters and my brother-in-law both have special diet needs and they were very accommodating to both of them. Outstanding place. I highly recommend it to anyone.

From the yummy breakfasts, to the lovely Garden Room... the Jacuzzi tub was awesome!...everything was perfect! I was a single traveler this time...the Brafferton afforded me all the privacy I needed, but the staff was there when I needed them. Recently, I had suffered a broken foot and the loss of my husband...this was the perfect Rest and Relaxation venue...I highly recommend this inn, and hope to return in 2012. Thanks again to Brian, Joan, Christina and the entire staff for a memorable stay at your inn..perhaps next year,I'll come with a companion and book one of the suites! Marsha Jacobs

So much to love at this historic B&B! The Codori Suite in which we stayed was a great combination of historic beauty and modern amenities - plenty of hot water, adjustable room heating and cooling that work right away, flat screen tv with cable above the fireplace - don't have to use it if you don't want to but nice to have it there. Excellent breakfasts. We LOVED having our own parking spot and also enjoyed being right downtown near so many eateries, shops, and entertainment. The inkeepers were very hospitable, responsive, and helpful, especially with making dinner reservations and clueing us in on interesting events. Great experience! We'll be staying there again!

I had the good fortune of staying at this charming Inn. The Codori Suite is beautiful with a lovely sitting room where I enjoyed watching TV on a large screen. The two bathrooms are "over the top." The king-size bed was dressed in fine linens. The Innkeepers and staff are welcoming and friendly. Breakfast each morning was a treat as I was served my choice of three delicious selections. I was spoiled and can't wait to go back. The Inn is also located right downtown so it if very convenient. I recommend it.

What a pleasant way to experience Gettysburg, PA. The innkeeper Joan, made sure we had all the tools we needed to explore Gettysburg. Maps, tours, places to eat and explore. She answered all our of our questions. We loved our room, which was delightfuly decorated. We especially enjoyed the air conditioning with the heat wave. Breakfast was a complete surprise. A choice of meals, including homebaked muffins, was served in the dinning room each moring. A choice of times was given each day. We would love to come back.

This was our first time at a bed and breakfast and we were pleasantly surprised. Our suite was very comfortable, roomy and docorated according to what we would have expected for a civil war town. Any requests we made of the innkeepers were immediately met and always with a smile. They were very accomodating and had great suggestions for us as to where to go and what to do. The next time we travel to Gettysburg, we will not hesitate to book a room at the Brafferton Inn.

We spent two days at the Brafferton Inn and stayed in the Gettysburg Suite. Our suite was spacious, warm and very comfortable. We had several options to a excellent breakfast, which in my opinion could be surpassed by no one else.

We couldn't have been happier with our stay at the Brafferton. It was beautifully maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful but not overbearing. They gave great suggestions for local activities. We had requested their All Inclusive Package, and when we arrived everything was set up just as they said it would be. We enjoyed two wonderful dinners at the restaurants they chose for us, and found the audio cd's they loaned us to be an informative guide for our auto tour of the Gettysburg Battlefield. Our room (Garden Room) was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. The only thing we felt could have improved the room was the addition of a mini-fridge. Other than that, the room exceeded our expectations and we loved spending time there. The breakfasts at the inn were delicious and efficiently served. We had the option of 3 seating times each day. When we arrived at the dining room each morning, breakfast was served right on time. We were greeted with dishes of fresh fruit, glasses of orange juice, and freshly baked pastries that were probably the highlight of the meals. We were then given a choice of three entrees each day. Every entree we chose was delicious and perfectly portioned. The inn is conveniently located in town. It is surrounded by quaint shops and plenty of eateries within 1 to 2 blocks, and is within 5 to 10 minute driving time of the battlefield visitors center. The only drawback to the stay was that there is no reserved off-street parking for guests. Directly behind the inn is a row of metered off-street spots and a parking garage, and the location of those is convenient. However, the metered spots fill up fast in the evening (they are free after 8 pm), so some good luck and good timing was required in obtaining free parking one night. We weren't so lucky the other night, and ended up paying for the garage (75 cents/hour). But our enjoyment of the inn outweighed the parking hassle and we will definitely return for future visits.

My husband and I spent out 2nd Anniversary weekend at the Brafferon Inn in Gettysburg, PA. When we arrived, we were greeted by the owner, Brian. He showed us our room and went over the map of Gettysburg with us, and he also recommended some great restaurants and things to do. The inn itself has a nice colonial charm about it, with a lot of the original features still in tact. There is beautiful artwork throughout the inn, notably a mural of old Gettysburg in the dining room. Our suite was large and very clean. We were pleased with the bathroom/shower as well as the bed. We also had access to an outside deck/balcony (unfortunately it was February and very cold so we didn't get to use it!) We ate breakfast at the inn on both Sat and Sun morning. We were greeted with fresh pastries (blueberry almond muffins and lemon poppyseed muffins... yum!) and fresh fruit. We had three choices each day, some of which included: scrambled eggs with fresh mozzarella, basil and cherry tomatoes; sausage casserole; banana nut pancackes. All of the food was fresh cooked and was delicious! The inn was located right in downtown Gettysburg and was within walking distance of local bars, shops, and restaurants. Overall, we were very satisfied with our choice of B&Bs and we would definitely go back again!

My husband and I wanted to do something special for our first Valentine's weekend as a married couple. By luck I found The Brafferton Inn online and my husband and I decided to go all out and reserve the Pear Tree Suite. We can't say enough about our weekend. Everyone was wonderful, check in was so personal (as was the check out although we were sad to have to check out), our room was amazing, the chocolate covered strawberries I requested were delicious, and the breakfast was amazing. We are already trying to figure out another weekend to visit (sadly the Pear Tree Suite will have to be saved for a special weekend). Thank you for everything!

My wife and I stayed in the Brafferton Suite for two nights in January after a good snow storm. When we arrived Brian had already shoveled out a parking spot for us which we would use for the entire stay. The Inn is in a great location, right down town and an easy 10 minute drive to the museum. It is very clean and well maintained. At breakfast there are many options and as a diabetic felt very comfortable with the choices available for me. The food was wonderful, especially the lemon muffins. The room was more than we could hope for with a gas fire place that opens to both the bedroom and a nice little sitting area where you can watch your very own copy of Gettysburg or Gods and Generals before going out on the battlefield. I highly recommend this Inn and we certainly will be staying here again in the near future.

My girlfriend and I have stayed at this wonderful Bed and Breakfast two times - both stays were in the winter months, and we absolutely love it! The rooms are very quaint, comfortable, and clean. The food is wonderful. The owners come across more like family than someone you are doing business with. With all the things to see and do in the Gettysburg area, we still find ourselves wanting to spend a great amount of time in B&B itself. It has a great history, and we cannot recommend it enough to friends and relatives. It was our first choice of lodging when we attended the most recent Inkeeper's Civil War Ball, just down the street, at the Gettysburg Hotel. Book a room - seriously!! You will not be disappointed.

My boyfriend and I decided to take a weekend getaway in Gettysburg to get out of the big city and chose the Brafferton Inn as our final destination. The innkeeper was extremely nice and welcoming, the food was amazing, and the house itself is a Civil War gem. Our only complaint was the bed--it was terrible! We stayed in the South Suite and were very displeased with our bed; the mattress was uncomfortable, sank in the middle, and caused us both a lot of back pain. Excluding the bed, our trip was wonderful and we would stay here again.
Réponse du propriétaire
Thank you for your comments on your stay with us. We had a great time meeting and getting to know you. As far as the bed, it seems the bar that sits under the mattress, which is part of the bed frame, had fallen off under the bed. That is probably why the mattress felt like it was sinking in the middle. Anyway, the frame and bar are all back together, and the bed and mattress are fine.
Thanks for letting us know so we could address the situation.
Hope to host you again soon!

Great romantic Inn and the location in downtown Gettysburg was great. We walked everywhere except the vistors center, and it was a quick drive there. The new vistors center is only 4 years old. It is fantastic and you feel like you have gone back in time. This is a fantastic place for civil war buffs. The battle of Gettysburg was only 3 days and when you go on a tour of the battlefieds and just drive through you can't believe that it was only 3 days. Such rich history. A sad time in America's history. The Inn was fantastic, it was built 100 years before the war!!!! The Hodges are great people and we met some lovely people who were staying there also. The breakfasts were so good, some of the best we have had. My husband and I have stayed at many B&B's and Inns and we would definately come back again and again.

My recent stay at the Brafferton Inn was awesome! The Innkeepers are lovely and v sweet. I liked the privacy, I didn't really see other guests except when dining for breakfast. The various private entrances really help limit this. The parking space provided was a huge bonus. Located right in the center of town, so you can walk to various cafes & shops. The building is beautiful and breakfast was charming (the pastries were amazing). I would recommend this as a go-to place to stay in Gettysburg. Check out any promotions on their website- they offered half off 2nd & 3rd nights off-season, great deal!

My girlfriend and I visited this bed & breakfast for a three-day weekend and we could not have been more pleased with every aspect of our visit. We were greeted warmly by the innkeepers and given a detailed and historic tour of the inn while being assisted in moving into our suite. We took advantage of a free auto tour cds and a booklet that the inn has on file and toured the battle sites. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the Battle of Gettysburg and we were not afraid to ask questions. Perhaps the most enjoyable part of the stay were the breakfast -- fresh fruit, mouthwatering pastries, and a choice of various egg dishes, casseroles, or pancakes. The food was prepared according to our dietary needs. When we came back for an afternoon nap each day, we found the room to be taintless and tidy. We know we will be coming back to the Brafferton Inn next time that we are in Gettysburg and could not recommend it more highly!

We stayed in the Coduri Suite, which was outstanding!!!! The suite is very spacious with 2 full bathrooms, one of which is huge with a giant shower. The room looked almost new. The bed was very comfortable, the room was quiet, and it was spotlessly clean. Included a mini fridge & microwave, which was a nice touch. The only drawbacks were no TV in the bedroom area d/t layout of suite (did have a large flat screen TV in living area) and we could not figure out how to get the heated towel rack & jets for the tub to work (I'm sure if we asked, the staff would have been happy to assist though). The suite came with one private parking spot, which was a little rough getting in & out of d/t uneven asphalt, but a great benefit of the suite. The staff was friendly and gave us several great tips for dining, shopping, & activities. The breakfasts were very good. The daily breakfast pastry selections were the best food we had on the entire trip. The Inn has an abundadance of charm and a great location (we were able to walk to almost everything). Comparing this to other B&Bs we have stayed at, we would highly recommend and will definitely book the Coduri Suite again if we return to Gettysburg.

My daughter and I stayed at the Brafferton for two nights. The staff was very gracious and welcoming. My daughter was the only child in the inn but was treated as a welcome guest. Our room (The Chamberlain) was perfect for us with one double and one twin bed. Our bathroom was tiny but clean and cozy and directly across the hall. There is no private parking available and I managed to avoid getting a ticket at the meters behind the inn. This is an historic inn, so expect lots of stairs and narrow passageways and doors - normal for a building of the era. I have dietary restrictions and they gave me great choices for breakfast. I would definitely recommend The Brafferton.

My husband and I stayed in the Pear Tree suite. The room was more fabulous than the pictures on the website! It was such a nice getaway for us (and probably our last one for a while), as we have twins at home, with another one on the way. Breakfast was delicious and very filling. Excellent service with the most kind innkeepers! Before we ran across The Brafferton, we had been looking at this one golf resort in York, which would've been about the same price. It wouldn't have held a candle to this place though!! We got SO much more for our money by coming to The Brafferton! Everything was very clean as well!

Apon my arrivial we were greated by the entire staff who was all very friendly. We were then given a tour and shown to our rooms. Anything we could have possibly needed was offered or at our disposal. Maps and tour information were given to us at no charge. The Breakfast each morning great and very filling.

The breakfast was beyond delicious, best muffins we ever ate. The room was so spotless, very nicely decorated, and the sheets were so soft. It is a wonderful Inn. We stayed there before and we will stay there again. I highly recommend this place!! The only problem with Gettysburg is the parking meters!! Take your change. At the Brafferton, the parking garage in the rear is the best bet, so another plus for the Inn.

My sister and I had a fabulous time overall in Gettysburg. The Brafferton Inn stay in the Joshua L. Chamberlain room was icing on the cake. Being Maine girls we were thrilled to be in a place named for a real Maine hero who was so important to the three day battle at Gettysburg. She and I highly recommend the Brafferton...the Hodges are lovely people who really do enjoy their life's work....it shows!

My husband and I plus our 2 teenage daughters stayed in the Gettysburg Suite and it was SO clean and comfortable. We were especially pleased with the parking spot right behind our suite -- we parked the car and were able to walk to shopping, restaurants and our ghost tour. The included breakfast was top-notch... kept us going all day.

Perfect location and greeted at the curb by our innkeeper, a personable and accommodating host. The inn is meticulously decorated with era appropriate decor. Room was spacious, lovely and just as represented. Cleanliness was obvious and the inn is well maintained. Breakfasts consisted of three gourmet selections and all included fresh fruit, juice, muffins and copious coffee. An easy walk to historic Gettysburg, quick drive to the national park and other sites, one hour from Amish Country, Brafferton was a treasure which we will revisit and recommend willingly. G.

We stayed at the Brafferton only for one night to explore Gettysburg but if we had knwn what a great place it was we would have stayed for longer. We stayed in the Pear Tree suite and it was spacious, comfortable and a great place gto be. We were made very welcome. Best of all there was parking, an outside patio and a separate room for the kids. breakfast was out of this world especially the maple twists and the blueberry pancakes!! Mmmmmmmmmm!

We recently stayed in the Deck Suite at the Brafferton Inn during our first visit to Gettysburg. The suite was clean & cozy, having everything that you would want for a stay including a nice deck overlooking the garden area. The inn is ideally located, right in town and within driving minutes of the battlefield. There is a clearly marked parking space right in front of the inn to use during check-in. It being off-season, after check-in we were able to park in one of the two inn's spaces that was right behind the inn. The parking garage, to use when the inn is more fully occupied, is right across the street, again behind the inn. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful, telling us about the inn and its history, the restaurants in town, and the available Ghost Walks (if in Gettysburg, why would you not take a Ghost walk). And yes, the breakfast was delightful. A fresh fruit plate, a scrumptious crumb cake pastry, and a choice of 4 (!) different breakfast plates. My wife & I couldn't resist the raspberry stuffed French toast. The Brafferton will be a stop off place for us, whether visiting Gettysburg again or on our way to a further destination.

This was our first stay at a B&B and I must admit I was a little bit wary initially. I planned this as a surprise getaway weekend for my wife. I can say with assurance now that selecting the Brafferton was by far the best choice I could have made. We stayed in the Loft Suite which was beautiful and gave us that "historic" feel. The Inn's location is perfect for walking around town and is just a few minutes drive from the Battlefield Museum & Visitor Center. The Food was to die for! Easily the best breakfast that I've ever had. And with friendly and hospitable service to match it. A top notch experience!

My boyfriend and I decided to go to Gettysburg for the weekend and this is the first place we looked. The place looked wonderful and even though the price was a bit high, we decided to book it. When we got to the bed and breakfast we were greeted by Brian and Joan and were given a tour of the building. We had no idea that we would be staying in the oldest inn in the city. Breakfast was indescribable. You'll never understand how awesome it is until you stay here. Parking is available at meters or the parking garage behind the building. You don't have to drive anywhere because all of the shops and resturants are within walking distance. All in all, I would give this place a 100% and would recommend it to EVERYONE. If you are thinking about going somewhere else to stay because the price is too high, please reconsider. The service is super friendly, the food is amazing and you'll feel right at home at this inn.

Our stay was delightful. The Hodges Family could not have been nicer. The location in the center of Gettysburg was wonderful. The history of the inn is fascinating. We were there for a college get together but would love to return to explore the battlefields. If we do we will stay again but try a different suite for variety. Breakfast provided several choices and it was delicious. Coffee is available at any time with homemade cookies. Yum!

My husband and I just spent his Birthday weekend at The Brafferton Inn on reccomendations from friends. Now we will reccomend this Inn! The Hodges family was just as warm and accomodating as could be - we felt at home as soon as we walked into this very old, historic and lovely Inn. Our room was large and we loved having the sitting room with fireplace as it was very cold outside. I have been to a few Bed and Breakfasts but NEVER - and I mean NEVER have I had such an amazing -cooked to order breakfast. Now we are spoiled as they have set the bar for all B&Bs we shall visit!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and this very historic inn!! The location is perfect to be able to shop, eat, tour, etc. The room was extremely clean and well-kept, and we felt right at home. The only disappointment was the mattress on the bed.....it looked great while the bed was made, but as soon as the two of us got into bed, we both rolled right to the middle on top of each other. Not a complaint, if only for one night. Would be difficult if more than that. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay!

Our room faced the back garden and was quiet. The location was conveniently located downtown and the parking was not a problem. We actually parked across the street and around the corner for a lot less than the lot behind the hotel. The breakfasts were the highlight of staying here. Brian loaned us a CD tour of battlefield. The cookies and coffee in the lounge were excellent.

As a teacher, I am unable to take time off for a honeymoon during the school year. So, my husband and I decided to make a little "get-away" to Gettysburg. This Inn came recommended to me by a friend, and I am so glad I took his advice! The Hodges Family were extremely understanding when an accident on the turnpike caused to us to have a very late check-in. We stayed in the Brafferton Suite and it was beautiful. Chocolate-covered strawberries and champagne awaited us in our room. The bed was extremely comfortable and the jucuzzi was a wonderful bonus! The breakfast, however, far exceeded anything I could have imagined. Each morning you are presented with fresh fruit, o.j. and coffee, a delicious "danish of the day" and a choice of three entrees. We were blown away by the food. We plan on coming back during the summer and we'll be sure to stay at the Brafferton Inn!

We stayed for a weekend in the Codori Suite and the website just does not do the Inn justice. The suite was very big and very clean with luxury towels and bedding. It's very hard to prepare food that has to please a large amount of people but the Hodges have managed to do just that, the food was delicious, the setting very nice and the service was very friendly and welcoming! The Inn is so unique and we highly recommend it, not to mention it is right in the square and within walking distance of just about everything!! The Hodges have been in the business for over 20 years and it is easy to tell why people keep returning, we will definantly be visiting in the future. Dave & Tracey Laughery

We decided to head to Gettysburg for our 15th Wedding Anniversary this past weekend and booked out room at The Brafferton Inn after an online search. We had never stayed at a B and B before and were truly amazed at the hospitality, service and hominess of the inn. Brian's assistance about tours and things to see as well as his breakfasts were top notch. Joans home baked goodies in the afternoon as well as her morning pastries were outstanding! We felt welcomed and also enjoyed the tour of the house and hearing the history of it. We will definitely recommend it to others and will plan to return again in the future. The Hayden's Endicott, NY

We just returned from a 2 night stay at the Brafferton Inn. This is a beautiful B & B in the heart of Gettysburg, with thoughtful, caring owners. We couldn't have felt more welcome. The rooms were beautiful and spotlessly clean, with comfy beds, good linens, and nice towels. Best of all was the gourmet breakfast - truly a labor of love! We had worried about parking due to the city center location, but there are ample meters, as well as garage parking, directly behind the inn. In sum, we could not have been more pleased, and hope to stay here again. We highly recommend the Brafferton to anyone visiting Gettysburg who are looking for comfortable, convenient accomodations with added luxury and period charm.

It was nice to see that this B&B has kept the original style and character from when it was built. The Battle Room had a bullet in the fireplace mantel from the war which was unique. The bed linens were luxurious, slept very well. The Hodges Family are excellent innkeepers, very polite and knowledgeable about Gettysburg, and anxious to do anything to make your stay enjoyable. The three course breakfasts are incredible as well as Joan's afternoon treats! The Inn is convenient to the downtown and an easy walk to shopping and restaurants. We look forward to returning to The Brafferton Inn and staying in one of the other guest rooms. The new visitor's center is wonderful, so educational - recommend everyone leave 3-4 hours during their visit to tour the center.

Wine, snacks, people to meet!Parking convenient in a very crowded town...that helped a lot! Needs to have TV, or at least internet access.

The old home is historic and interesting, but the floors are creaky and the skylight in our room woke us at the crack of dawn, after being out late the night before. We heard every move people down the hallway made. I thought the hostess was kind of curt and condescending to us, certainly different than our other experiences at B&Bs. We had to cross the hallway to get to our bathroom. The breakfast was very good. There is no parking so you have to get up early to go out and feed the meter or get a ticket. Just up the street is a building with a cannon ball in it from the great battle. Gettysburg is a wonderful place to visit, and I am glad that I stayed there just to say that I did, but I would never stay at this place again. I had a much better time a few years ago when I stayed at a B&B on battlefield.

Joan was so helpful with information about the area and gave us a wonderful tour of the Inn. Brian's breakfasts are incredible! Our rooms were so lovely and rich with history, and kept clean and fresh. The Inn is so convenient to the downtown Gettysburg area that we could walk to the shops and restaurants. During our time in Gettysburg we took note of other B&B's that we'd considered and we all agreed that the Brafferton was the ideal choice. I know that we will all be returning to enjoy the Brafferton again in the future.

We had our grandchildren (10/11) and were hesitant at first but the Codori room was perfect, the food was outstanding and the gardens were delightful. I loved sitting in the garden with my evening coffee and reading...so peaceful yet right in the heart of town. We will be visiting the Brafferton again!

We stayed here 2 weeks ago. Beautiful inn and outstanding hosts. Joan and Brian are gracious and accomodating hosts. The rooms are spotlessly clean and welcoming. Breakfast was amazing! I've never stayed at such a wonderful place and hope to return someday. Great location too.

We stayed at the Brafferton overnight in early May on our way home from a medical meeting in Lancaster. We always enjoy Gettysburg, and this was our 4th visit to the Brafferton. We look forward to staying here every year, and have stayed in several different rooms, all very comfortable and charming. The Hodges' are wonderful innkeepers, and the food is fantastic. We always look forward to our next visit, and would recommend the Brafferton to anyone!

My new wife and I decided to spend our short honeymoon weekend here. We stayed in the "Dorothy's Hideaway" which has a tv ,jacuzzi, microwave and fridge. We were very pleased with the service and the breakfasts were very very good. The keepers were very friendly and warm. We want to come here again and I would recommend anyone that wants to stay in Gettysburg to go to the Brafferton Inn.

My wife and I decided to spend a special 22nd wedding anniversary in Gettysburg. After a search of inns, we chose The Brafferton Inn in downtown Gettysburg. We were not disappointed and are looking forward to going back. The breakfast meal is outstanding, the staff is fantastic. Brian and Joan are such gracious hosts. The rooms are tastefully decorated and the location is right downtown. Brian and Joan made this anniversary celebration one that that my wife and I will never forget.

The Brafferton in Gettysburg is a great place to stay. The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful and the breakfast is awesome! We stayed in the Gettys room and it was quaint and delightful. I only have 2 small complaints...1 there is no TV in the room. I don't watch a ton of TV, especially while on vacation but I do enjoy catching the news and sports at night before I go to sleep and of course we couldn't do that because there was no tv...2 there is a skylight in the ceiling of that room and as soon as the sun comes up the room gets as bright as mid-day and I didn't like that. I like to sleep in a little in total darkness and that was a problem in this room. Overall though, I have no other complaints about our stay at this very nice b&b. If my 2 minor complaints were not a factor, it would be a perfect rating.

This was my 3rd stay at the Brafferton, and I plan on going back for more. The Hodges' are welcoming hosts, outstanding cooks and will do anything they can to make your stay perfect. The rooms are unique and lovely; the cookies are great and the breakfasts are spectacular. My favorite place to stay in Gettysburg.

We went on an romantic overnight and had a fabulous time! We stayed in the Brafferton Suite and found it much to our liking! The noise from the road was a bit annoying at 6am, but the room itself with the fabulous bed, fireplace, and two person jacuzzi made it easy to forget! The breakfast was out of this world and learning the history of the inn from the innkeeper was very interesting! The location is great as well for walking and shopping the historic downtown area! We had a fabulous time!

This was my husband and myself first time at a Bed and Breakfast. We wanted to to something extra special for our tenth anniversary. Staying here at the Brafferton B&B was more special than I expected. We were taken to our room personally and given a complete tour of the inn. I was surprised by flowers, wine and chocolate covered strawberries (requested in advance by my husband). We spent a wonderful time in Gettysburg but the morning breakfast was the best. I wish we could have them make us breakfast everyday. I don't think I have had a better breakfast anywhere ever. The restaurant recommendatations were great along with touring information. We will definately come again. The Brafferton Inn spoiled us and we will always compare other B&B and hotels to their high standards.

My husband & I were on Spring break. We hadn't made any plans concerning where to go & at the last minute he said 'Let's go to Gettysburg & let's stay some where nice this time.' Much to our surprise there was a room available at The Brafferton, and what a room it was! Beautiful, warm & comfortable are the words that come to mind, not only concering the room, but the Breakfast as well. The home made cookies, coffee, tea & hot choclate that they leave out for you at night in the parlor are a wonderful touch as well. I wish we had stayed for more than one night! Highly recomended.

We stayed at The Brafferton Inn in 2005 and it remains among our favorite of many B & B experiences. Our Innkeepers were delightful, our rooms were cozy and comfortable, the ambience was historical and inviting and the breakfast was FANTASTIC! We traveled on motorcycles and our hosts even allowed us to park in their garage rather than having to park our bikes in the community parking garage behind the inn. We are planning another trip to Gettysburg in the near future and we will introduce another couple to this charming establishment and to the richest historical community in the country.

This family owned Inn is outstanding. If you have any questions about touring Gettysburg they have the answers. The rooms are clean, very cute and have a lot of history. If there is any problem with the room you are staying in they will put you in another room with no extra cost. The three course breakfast is more then you could ever expect, it is by far the best breakfast I have ever had at a B&B. I would definitely stay here again, it was a fabulous experience.
