My son was graduating from Keene state college, and our plans were to stay in Keene for the weekend. Being a flight attendant for 40 years I knew I did not want to stay in a motel/hotel! So I located this b&b in downtown Keene. Wow were we pleasantly surprised when we walked in. The lovely owner was pleasant and... More

Joslin has developed a beautiful and inviting guesthouse in this historic property, and she takes great delight in sharing it with her guests. Colony House is a wonderful place to stay while visiting the area - I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a truly first class experience.

I stopped there on my way to Boston by bike. My bedroom was great, the living room is perfect and the breakfast was delightful. Keene's beautiful central square is a couple of blocks away. And the host is very friendly. Perfect spot if you bike around the region!

Our first time in Keene and in the Colony house, it almost brought us back in time. Everthing was excellent so we extended our stay from 2 nights in to 6.

I was looking for a place to stay for a family wedding and received a recomendation for the Colony House. The room was very nice and the private bath (although across the hall) was beautiful. Robes in the room were a nice treat in a B&B. There were little candies in the room and quality bath products in the bathroom.... More

What a great place. Nothing super fancy, but very nice. In a lovely old brick house, nicely restored, just steps from the center of town (but off the main street). Our room was extremely nice, with a great bed and very nice linens. The bathroom was great, and the shower was excellent. The whole process of reserving a room, checking... More

I have stayed at Colony House on more than a dozen occasions during the past 5 years and each stay has been excellent. The rooms are tastefully decorated - as is the entire property - and all but the front room are very quiet, the beds are superb, the showers are excellent, the continental breakfasts substantial, and Joslin is a...

This place really is one of a kind. While a far cry from a corporate style hotel, it made my stay in Keene really memorable, and helped me get a feel for the history of the city. It was nice to feel like I was stepping back in time, to a place when manners mattered, and great care and attention... More

Colony House is a beautiful, immaculate B&B near the town square and college. Joslin Kimball Frank has restored the 19th C. house to create a beautiful space both for herself and her guests. There is a nice Continental breakfast each morning, with varied choices, a sitting room, and a TV room. The bedrooms are comfy and bathrooms have new fixtures.... More
