My wife and I are frequent visitors to Wilmington. We typically like to stay at one of the local b&b's-- we've stayed at the beautiful Verandas, around the corner from the Front Street Inn, several times--though we have, from time to time, stayed at the Hilton down on the water. It was our first time staying at the Front Street,... more

Stayed for a rainy weekend in Wilmington, so I might have been biased by the weather. But we stayed in the Hemingway room, which was gigantic, but surprisingly dull. The decor was pretty spartan, though it did sport a huge bathtub and King size bed. I have to agree with reviews of the breakfast. Served as a continental breakfast, it... more

We just returned from a lovely weekend getaway at the Front Street Inn. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful, our suite was clean, comfortable and creatively decorated, and breakfast was delicious. Great location for walking around the waterfront or downtown as well. Would certainly recommend to others. more

We have nothing but great comments about the Front Street Inn. We arrived long before check in time but were graciously welcomed, given a great recommendation for lunch and parked our car and took off to enjoy the waterfront. We returned still early for check-in but the room was ready in just a few minutes. The help provided with our... more

My husband & I just returned from our weekend getaway at the Front Street Inn, and the worst part about our weekend was having to leave! Our room (the Bistro Suite) was very spacious and romantic, and felt very selcuded. The bed was extremly comfortable (not to mention a lovely and interesting conversation piece); and the 2 person spa tub... more

We loved our recent stay at the Front Street Inn. I know that some of the reviews about this place have been bad, but we have only good things to say. The place was extremely clean and comfortable, and the location is so convenient to the Riverwalk and restaurants. We stayed in the Cabana Suite at the back of the... more

My husband and I just returned from a two night stay at the Front Street Inn. It was a very enjoyable experience. We stayed in the bistro suite and very much enoyed the comfy bed and two person jacuzzi. Though the building is old, and maybe could use some updating here and there, the room was very clean, which is... more

This inn came highly recommended and got very good reviews on the Internet. Unfortunately, this is one of those situations to which "seeing is believing" definitely applies. The reviews and description on the inn's web site were so different from what the inn is really like. It's nice enough and relatively clean, but the bathroom had clogged drains (both the... more

We had arrived in Wilmington late with no reservations. We joked about staying at the Salvation Army hostel if we couldn't find a room. The Visitors Center was closed but there was a map outside with hotels, attractions, etc. listed. We picked the nearest hotel which happened to be the Front Street Inn and found it easily. What a lucky... more

My wife and I just got back from 4 great days in Wilmington NC and the first thing I did when I got home was to write this review (something I'm not often compelled to do) of the Front Street Inn. We had originally heard about the inn from a partner in our dc law firm who had stayed at... more
