Lovely older home in a good location next to Jamaica Pond--a refreshing 1.5 mile hike around. Hospitable hosts. A nifty room with fireplace, good bed and reasonable price, plenty of parking. A different menu each morning for breakfast--especially the egg casserole---accompanied by, if you wish, two very friendly Golden Retrievers. We certainly plan to return. more

We stayed in the Taylor House on a romantic get-away. It was perfect. Nice folks, clean, comfy room. more

This is a very well run B&B and Dave was very friendly and helpful. The house is beautiful and I'd highly recommend this property.

Thankfully, they have listened to our reviews and have taken appropriate actions. I love how accessible this location is and their rates for returning guests for this winter... more

There are two buildings, both with wonderful, comfortable, spacious rooms. Breakfast is so fantastic and offers something for everyone (from meat-eaters to vegetarians to health and weight-conscious folks). The great touches like the interior decorating are truly remarkable, and Dave and Daryl are truly talented and nice people. The two golden retrievers, Jamie and Parker, and sweet, gentle and affectionate... more

Clean, comfortable and accomodating. We visit our family in the area and feel that this is our home in the neighborhood. Jamaica Plain is a small city within the city - a variety of good restaurants, shops, parks, and quiet streets to stroll. Downtown Boston is a short express train away. Taylor House is a beautiful example of the victorian... more

We stayed at Taylor House for the fourth time while visiting our son in Jamaica Plain. We've now stayed in 4 of the 5 rooms, and wil try the fifth next year.
