Found this place on trip advisor while looking for a place to stay around the Harpers Ferry area. It had great reviews , so decided to check it out. This is a great B&B! It really offers it all. It combines all the modern ammenities of a hotel like private bath,tv/vcr, on site staff with the charm and feel of a civil war home. The innkeepers really make you feel at home and make you feel like it's your home for the night. Breakfast is not at a set time although they do ask you what time you would like it ready. They also ask you if there is anything you don't eat. On arrival, was some amazing cheesecake waiting for us. Also there is a refrigorator with drinks, that is open all the time. Plenty of books to read and vcr tapes. The rooms are very comfy and well stocked, We were in the Sunrise room, the bed seemed really firm to us but we slept great so no complaints. I did go sit on all the beds in all the rooms and the matteresses felt equally firm except the Mary Rutherford Room, that matteress seemed softer. Charles Town is also a cute little town to explore with lots of history, my only complaint is they roll the sidewalks up early. If your looking for a great place to stay that's not a cookie cutter experience ,this really has it all

  • Liked — Beautiful house, great breakfast, nice innkeepers
  • Disliked — firm mattress

We have stayed at several BandBs across the country, I can truly compliment Donn and Marie on a nice job with all aspects of the B and B experience. We had almost booked a room at the Bavarian Inn at Shepherdstown, however after having lunch there I can say without hesitation you would have a much more personable experience at the Carriage Inn.

My husband and I had the great pleasure of staying at a wonderful bed and breakfast in Charles Town, West Virginia. If you love history, and love being pampered, then you will love The Carriage Inn. Upon arrival at the bed and breakfast we were met by two wonderful people, Marie and Donn Davis. They are the owners of The Carriage Inn. Marie and Donn are very personable and down to earth people.

The time spent at The Carriage Inn was very enjoyable. The accommodations are very comfortable. The house overflows with history - built in 1836, the Inn was the site of a meeting between Ulysses Grant and General Sheridan. The rooms maintain the history of house while offering modern conveniences - color TV/VCR, alarm clocks, central air conditioning and private baths with modern fixtures. Breakfast was fantastic both mornings we were there. Soft drinks, coffee and tea are available all day, and each evening brings a home made baked treat.

My husband and I had a great time at The Carriage Inn. We would encourage anyone interested in coming to Charles Town to stay at The Carriage Inn.

The Carriage Inn is the first B&B that I have stayed at. I can only hope that others are as interesting and friendly. Owners Donn and Marie are perfectly delightful and immediately made us feel at home. The rooms are clean, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The breakfast was sweet (orange french toast) but very good. The civil war connection (the house was built in 1836 and was the location of a meeting between Grant and Sheridan) added a interesting element. Be sure to give the Carriage Inn a try. You won't be disappointed.

Have stayed in many, the Carriage Inn was the best. New owners are fantastic. Room and food were exceptional. Copper Beech Suite was well worth the rate.
