from a hotel. Beautiful renovated home with large spacious rooms. Our room was the William in the back of the house (no river view). Lots of windows, absolutely wonderful bed and very quiet. The only thing I would have liked would have been an "easy" chair although the public rooms are very pleasant. Breakfast was good and hearty and available... More

Last Saturday we hosted my daughter's bridal shower at City House in Harrisburg. What a wonderful location for a shower or private party! We chose the "china package" (or whatever it was called), which meant that City House provided the linens, glasses, plates, water for tea, iced water, etc.--AND did the clean up after it was all over! We brought... More

We went here last minute and were very pleased. The proprietor was very pleasant and had great ideas about restaurants and the area. We walked along the river, directly across the street and through the gardens. There are many restaurants close by, well within walking distance, and lots of gorgeous old buildings.

My boyfriend and I live about 30 miles outside of Harrisburg, however we are frequently in the city due to the social scene (AKA bars and restaurants lol). We usually crash at a friend's place, however for our anniversary we decided to rent a room at City House. Not only was it an amazing location and a charming building, but... More

This is a lovely house that is thankfully free of the Victorian clutter too often found in B&Bs. It's located overlooking the Susquehana, an easy walk to restaurants and the state capitol. Our host made a great recommendation for dinner. A healthy and plentiful breakfast. Off-street parking. Definitely would stay again.

Stayed here on trip to see the state Capitol building and Harrisburg. The place is immaculately clean and very quiet. Awesome beds. Coffee and tea always available. A five minute walk to the Capitol and the State Museum. Innkeeper was knowledgeable of the area, and congenial. Breakfast was standard fare, but tasty. Baked oatmeal with strawberries and the usual breakfast... More

i lived across the river decades ago and always wondered what it would be like to live in a river front town house. I now know. This newly refurnbished four bedroon inn is a delight. The home has been lovingly restored with touches of modernity. Simple, attractive and up to date decor makes this a great contrast to the country... More

I found City House on an internet search when planning a trip to the Harrisburg area. It was a perfect place to stay! We spent 5 nights there and hated to leave! It is a perfect hub for traveling in and around Harrisburg. It's 30 min. from Gettysburg and Lancaster, as well as many other great destinations. The accommodations and... More

The charm and authenticity of the City House was exceeded only by the warm reception and constant attention the we received. The B&B fronts the river where you can walk or jog forever along the beautiful greenway. We walked to a local pub for a drink and then to our restaurant that night. This has to rank as one of...
