The personal service and the homely historic setting were the clear highlights of our stay at 1842. College Street is definitely worth a stroll, for the wonderful local architecture. There were some lovely extra touches at the inn: early evening hors-d'oeuvres and a homely bar built into the sitting room. Check-in and evening service could possibly have been smoother if... More

Took my mom for her 50th b-day. This place is so beautiful and to sit out on the front porch or in the back garden area was so peaceful. Within walking distance to downtown Macon and some of the tours of historical homes. We had breakfast served in our room and it was scrumptious. Staff was so helpful in suggesting... More

It was like stepping back into history. The staff was very friendly and eager to please. Breakfast was adequate (a bit of fresh fruit on the plate would be a nice addition). It's getting just a touch frayed around the edges, but maybe if the economy picks up they will be able to afford some renovations. Not a reason to... More

Wonderful spot, beautiful old property, updated perfectly, room was beautiful, clean, modern, good wifi, lots of parking, close to downtown. Breakfast was exquisite, eggs done perfectly, scones were as good as it gets. This place is what every B&B should strive to be. The staff was very friendly and helpful - just like one would expect. Don't always enjoy the... More

From the moment we entered this elegant inn and were warmly greeted, we knew the experience would be wonderful and it was. Attention to detail was revealed in plush towels, everything in good working order, complimentary soft drinks readily available, concierge to the best restaurant in town (Natalia's), instant hot water in our shower. Moreover we walked to main attractions... More

1st time Macon visitor. Stopped in Macon to stay at this particular B & B, and we were very impressed. Warmly greeted on arrival and it got even better from there. The house is gorgeous. We stayed in the annex cottage. Quiet, comfortable, and met our expectations. Afternoon tea by the fireplace in the parlor. We were served hors oeuvres... More

We were in Macon for the Macon Film Festival. As filmmakers, we were offered the Holiday Inn outside of town for a discount but opted to stay at the 1842 Inn without a discount since it was in town and we wanted to get the flavor of the South. This Inn met our expectations in every way: nice location, a... More

Beautiful bed and breakfast in a Southern Mansion that will make you want to stay. Sitting in the middle of the historic area, it is surrounded by the beauty of many other historic homes from different periods. The rooms are beautifully appointed, with exquisite furnishings and the service is 5 star. Perfect to accomodate the entire wedding party and they... More

Service was awesome and the staff made sure we felt at home. We got a tour of the entire premises and was not disappointed at all. It's convenient to downtown in the historic area. It's also convenient to interstate. It everything anyone would want in the historic area. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in historic area.

Sadly, we had only one comfortable night at this lovely home. It was so warm, and inviting. I love the dreamy feeling of going back in time when in a home such as this. Breakfast was excellent. We passed on the evening appetizers so as not to spoil our dinner out. We would have loved to lounge on the veranda... More
