The home is amazingly beautiful such craftmanship it has been restored beautifully. Our room was very comfortable and the bathroom was beautiful. The only thing was that the ice machine in the lobby was not working.

AC Wasn't working properly. Like any historical building and the floors really creeped, which was only a problem if anybody got up in the middle of the night… And woke everyone else up

Great for a weekend getaway
Wonderful last-minute find for a quick weekend stay in the area. This place is a perfect combination of the quiet privacy of a good B&B combined with conveniences of a more corporate hotel (easy self access, great amenities, honor bar, turnover services etc). Will definitely be staying again soon

A beautifully restored Queen Anne with all the details you would expect to find in a traditionally appointed B&B. Jeff and Bonnie take pride in their finished product and their love of being innkeepers shows throughout. Jeff takes pride in his, from scratch, breakfasts and afternoon cookies. We, as their guests, get to enjoy the fruits of his cooking and baking passion. The rooms are clean with very comfy beds (that have a fresh, clean, smell to them!), a tea station, full baths. I’d return whenever I’m back in their area.

Great weekend getaway!
We received a call from the innkeeper to ensure we were coming; he was kind to wait up for us despite a late arrival. Excellent cooking. I really appreciated the in-room tea service plus French presses for use at our leisure. The room was bright for a Victorian property but really pleasant and well furnished. We had wine and cheese on one evening and good conversation with our fellow lodgers. I highly recommend! Will return.

Our stay at Berkeley House B&B in Staunton, VA was a wonderful and experience. The hosts, Jeff and Bonnie are engaging and welcoming. The B&B house itself is wonderfully appointed and the rooms (we were able to peek into all of them) are delightful and tastefully furnished. The furnishings provide a sense of being taken back to a much more traditionally Victorian Virginia. The breakfast part of the experience is also another highlight.

The only B&B to stay at in Staunton VA
This B&B should be any ones FIRST choice in Staunton VA. Wonderfully restored Victorian home by the owners! We were able to see each room, and all are amazing. We chose the Chatswood Chamber, their least expensive room- it is a much nicer room then we have paid much more for at other B&B's-

A victoria gem in the heart of historic district.
I took a couple of days for some shopping annd Shakespere.I originally thought i would book at the Stonewall Jackson hotel next to the theatre but i am so glad i decided to take a chance on a B and B. Berekley Place hs the charm of the past with the comforts of the present. Jeff and Bonnie were warm and gracious hosts,and breakfast was a treat. Day one included fresh fruit and berries and a ham and egg souffle. The location enabled me to go out for a few hours,then be back in 10 to 15 minutes, rest awhile ,then head out sgain. I hope to visit again

A unique B&B that will blow you away
First of all, the Staunton, VA area is a beautiful area to spend some days to catch up with your soul and just relax and enjoy life. Second, Berkeley House is truly unique. Jeff and Bonnie have gone to incredible lengths to get this up to a standard that is just amazing. This is as far from the cookie cutter standard hotel chain as it can possibly be. But it is loved for and nurtured in a way that makes you feel so welcome and at ease. Third, Jeff and Bonnie are the perfect hosts. Friendly, easy going, helpful in any way. Last, the concept of B&B works here. At every breakfast, we engaged with the other guests and had great conversations. It was a great way to start the day, to sit and enjoy Jeff's and Bonnie's sumptous breakfast, while at the same time talking to strangers and just have a slow and very good start to the day. If you have a few days to spare, go there. You will not regret it!

In the heart of history
Never having experienced staying in a bed and breakfast before, I was pleasantly surprised by the perfect time I had. The atmosphere hearkened to the 19th century while keeping up with the modern conveniences. The owners obviously have the passion for making the visit relaxing yet authentic to the Victorian era. They were amicable, the breakfast was special, my entire stay was positive. I shall definitely return.

Victorian Feel with a Fresh Face
Jeff was a wonderful host. The property was renovated in 2014 so while it has tons of antiques, it doesn't feel old or dusty. It's as beautiful as the pictures make it out to be. We were very fortunate to share the house with two really friendly couples so it added to the charm of the experience. Staunton is a fantastic town. I highly recommend it for a weekend get away from DC or anywhere else! We will definitely stay here again if or when we come through Staunton again!

Amazing getaway location!
This was our first time staying at a bed & breakfast, and it was an amazing experience. We arrived to the scent of fresh-baked banana bread, and the owners were warm and welcoming. The house itself is gorgeous and beautifully restored, with tasteful decorations and period furniture. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, decorated in a traditional style. Everything was clean and neat. Breakfast is included (obviously) and was quite delicious. The house is only a block from the Woodrow Wilson museum, and a short walk to downtown shops and restaurants as well as the Blackfriars Playhouse (home to an excellent regional Shakespeare company). Overall it was a wonderful experience and we'd love to stay there again!

Was forced to move to another room a week period due to them double-booking. Then I was up-charged upon arrival! To make it worse, I was "up-charged" 40 per night. When I looked on their website, the difference in the two rooms was only 20 per night. So I felt a bit ripped-off, twice. The house, and room and services were very good however. But if you get shuffled around, you may want to book elsewhere.

Very beautiful B&B with caring owners
The owners were very friendly, attentive, and discreet. They cooked something great and different every day. They took great care and made up this really beautiful bnb with excellent taste. Everybody was impressed, as we found out during our very enjoyable breakfasts with other residents. The hotel can offer you also discounted tickets to the Shakespeare theatre, when you book with them. We would definitely visit again. Staunton is a great location for hikes in the Shenandoah and other sightseeing in VA and it is a very cute little town with a few very good restaurants.
