My husband normally chooses our B&B's, but I was charged with the responsibility for this trip. I searched the net high & low for the perfect place. Upon our arrival I knew I had suceeded in my mission. My husband & I were not disappointed; we had the perfect room (Hunt Room), hosts, breakfasts, charm and decor - indeed I... More

My wife and I really enjoyed our time staying at The Kimmell House. It's an old house (1765) with all the modern conveniences. But...they have such an eye for detail! It's appointed with the perfect touches to really make you feel like you're in the Colonial Era. We spent our evening time warming ourselves by the fire in the keeping... More

We had a very warm, comfortable welcome and totally enjoyable visit. Dave and Bonnie are excellent, experienced innkeepers who are very friendly and knowledgeable. Our rooms were lovely and immaculate. The furnishings are very well done and so appropriate for the inn. Breakfasts were so delicious and the presentation was great. We had a medical emergency while at the inn... More

This was our first visit to the Kimmell House and our first opportunity to enjoy Dave and Bonnie's hospitality. We stayed two nights in celebration of our 40th anniversary and had a really enjoyable time. The breakfasts were great, the room was clean and comfortable, and the host & hostess were gracious and helpful. Dave's recommendation for a restaurant for... More

My husband, son and I stayed at the Kimmel House this past Thurs. heading to Millersville Univ. on Friday. The Inn is one of the most beautiful b & b's we've ever stayed in. It is clean, organized, renovated to perfection and shows the thought and care given to reflect it's 200+ years standing. One can't stop but admire all... More

I'm not the type to write reviews, but this place was amazing. The decor is extremely tasteful and in keeping with the historic nature of the house. No floral print and doily explosion here! The hosts are great sources of information and very helpful. Breakfast portions are large, but delicious and will allow you to skip lunch and have more... More

Kimmell House is a wonderful place to stay. The rooms are comfortably furnished and very clean. Bonnie and Dave are delightful hosts and the breakfasts are delicious with plenty to eat. This is definitely a place I would stay again when in the Lancaster area.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Kimmell House and it gets better and better. The Kimmell House is exceptionally cleaned and so tastefully decorated. The beds are extremely comfortable. The setting is beautiful and peaceful. Each room has its own bath and it is so sound proof. The owners are delightful. They took such good care... More

We stopped at the Hampton Inn but it was full, asked around and headed off to the Kimmel House. What a find! Great room, wonderful breakfast and lots of local advice. Innkeepers were really helpful, thoughtful and weren't in the way. We went to the Green (or Red) Dragon Friday market and bought local hams, bread, cheese (try the Cheddar... More
