We stayed in Room 10 which features a king size bed and a large soaking tub. The bed was comfortable, clean, and the bathroom was sizable. We always felt like there was a lot of space to unwind and relax when we were in our room. We were offered the Fall menu when we were there. On day 1 I had the apple crumble French toast (AMAZING) and I'm not even a big French toast guy. Your table has fresh orange juice, water, and coffee/tea when you come down and get seated. Loved this. On day 2 I had the traditional breakfast and enjoyed it thoroughly. The staff was friendly and accommodating - as expected from a well run B&B. We were on site for a small gathering of gamer friends and so I also tried some of their offerings in the small cafe. I tried Italian wedding soup for lunch and got several hot tea drinks. All excellent. They have a small "snack room" near the main entrance that has popcorn, and water, coffee maker, and other small amenities to make your stay more enjoyable. Overall, this was one of the most visitor-focused B&B we've had the pleasure of staying in. It sounds obvious to say that, but it his place really puts your money to work to make you enjoy your stay. Thank you!

When pressed for when we were going to be arriving, we advised that I was just getting out of the hospital from a minor heart attack and we were unsure when I was being released but once we knew, we would advise. Without any further discussion, the owner cancelled our reservation as they aren't ADA compliant and she assumed that I couldn't go up stairs. It was minor and I had no limitations upon being discharged. We chose the location due to being walking distance to the Kirby Center and ended up driving an hour and a half home after the concert as there were no rooms within walking distance to the venue for New Years Eve. I reached out again this year prior to making reservations for the 30th to make sure that we wouldn't have our reservation canceled again. There was no apology, no admitting that maybe she should have called us prior to up and canceling our reservation so we won't be staying there this year either. Beware and have a back up plan in case they just up and cancel your reservation and leave you hanging.

Today is our last day at the Hillard House, and it has been a pleasure. This will be up there with…read moresome of my Favorite B&B experiences. Communication with the owners was uncomplicated and straight forward. I wanted to book one or 2 nights, to celebrate my 1 year anniversary with my fiance. The owners worked with us, and we were booked for 2 nights (Saturday/Sunday nights) in the Gold room. Check in was easy...We were asked to tell what time we wanted breakfast (between 8 and 10am), confirmed our credit card used to book the reservation, and were taken upstairs. The building is gorgeous..built in 1865, and decorated tastefully with period appropriate decorations and carefully chosen accents, avoiding the tendency of some B&Bs to become a huge collection of clutter. The staircase is a gorgeous spiral/curved stair, and up the center of the staircase is an antique elevator, added in the 1930s. Our luggage went on the elevator, and we were shown into the Gold room. The gold room has a tall 4 poster Queen size bed, an adorable fireplace with electric fake insert that makes real crackling noise, and a bathroom with single stand-up shower. The pass-through between bathroom and bedroom has a small fridge with complimentary non-alcoholic beverages, and small coffee pot. The room is equipped with glasses for wine, coffee, tea, and other typical amenities. We enjoyed our stay in the Gold room. A table in the gold room allowed for a quiet spot to play board games later that evening, and the "crackling fire" was a surprising hit for both of us. (We may buy one for ourselves now.) The downside of the gold room for me is the stand up shower. It is small, and all tile, which made me feel a bit claustrophobic. This is not a deal breaker, in an otherwise excellent and relatively affordable ($145 listed price for a Saturday night, as of Feb. 2018) bed and breakfast option. Breakfast the next morning was excellent. The table was set with a gorgeous peacock patterned china that I'm now in love with, (Sadly I think they will notice if I steal some...guess I'll need to search online...) We started with an apple and oat muffin, served hot. Gordon (one of the owners) provided us with beverages, while Cecilia (the co-owner and chef) prepared breakfast. We were given a fresh fruit bowl. The pineapple was perfectly sweet. Our main breakfast food was Eggs Benedict on croissants. I find this to be slightly surprising as a dish served to guests without letting them know ahead of time, as some people can not stomach undercooked/poached eggs. My fiance is one of those who doesn't like eggs "runny"...but he cleaned his plate, to my surprise. The Hollandaise sauce was thick and creamy and unbroken, the asparagus spears topping the dish were cooked perfectly, and still had a bit of bite to them. Crispy slices of croissant were great to dunk in egg yolk, and the ham slice in between added the salt the dish needed. I was fully satisfied with the breakfast, at this bed and breakfast. We went out for the day Sunday to visit family. I checked with the owners before we left to see if we could switch our room from the Gold room to the Dutchess Suite for Sunday night, knowing that the couple staying in the Suite had checked out. For an acceptable upcharge, we were able to move to the Suite for Sunday night. The Suite is gorgeous, and if I could do another getaway weekend here at the Inn, I'd book the Suite. It has multiple rooms, a well appointed kitchenette closet (silverware, dishes, fridge, coffee/tea pot, microwave, sink), a parlor for watching TV or playing games, and another 4 poster bed, this one lower to the ground than the Gold Room. An unexpected bonus for us is a plug-in fan found in the kitchenette closet. My fiance needs white noise to sleep, and this was awesome. The bathroom is what makes this Suite the best, for me. It has a larger standing corner shower, and a sunken whirlpool tub. I think I soaked in the tub for over an hour, until I could have floated out. The only downside to the Dutchess Suite that I noticed, was the bed. It is an old 4 poster bed, positioned on a gorgeous wood floor, and even with protective coasters under the feet of the bed, the bed squeaks anytime you roll over or move. This made for a disruptive night of sleep, as we are each restless sleepers. I'm not sure this is something that can really be fixed, and isn't a fault of the owners, it is just a downside for us. This morning I got up and made myself a pot of tea, and I've enjoyed typing this review on the free (and fast!) wifi, while relaxing in the beautiful parlor. I don't know what our last breakfast is going to be, here, but I'm on my way downstairs to find out. 5 stars, Hillard House. We'll be back...this place is a great find, and an accent to Wilkes-Barre's beautiful small town feel.

We stayed in the gold medal room which had a comfy bed & enough space to walk around. The only thing I wish they had was an updated TV. The quality is grainy & the TV itself is small so it was hard to watch from in the bed. There's so much to look at in the house from the photos, to the antiques, to the furniture, it felt like I was staying in a museum.

We unexpectedly had to travel to the Scranton area 2 get married under some difficult family circumstances with my father-in-law ill at the time. I wanted to make our wedding night something special despite the fact that it was not as planned. The owner was able, on short notice, to make arrangements to have a small wedding cake in our room, and had sparkling cider ready for us when we returned from exchanging our vows. The Silo room is the honeymoon suite of this location. A multi floor Suite with Gorgeous views, the Silo Room has a separate area with couch and television, as well as a oversized bathroom with whirlpool tub. A small kitchenette with coffee or tea making supplies, a small fridge and microwave made this a mini home away from home. One of the minor but strange things about this location is the door between the bathroom and the bedroom in The Silo room only has lace. You can look directly from the toilet to the bedroom, so if you are sharing that room with someone make sure there aren't any secrets between you! Breakfast was simple fare, but fresh and plentiful. Our order was taken the night before and everything was ready when we came downstairs. We had an omelet with ham and cheese, plenty of toast and muffins, and hot tea . If you like train memorabilia, this place is the spot for you. The owner has a mind-boggling assortment of miniature trains, antiques, signs and collectibles. There are other buildings in the Red Barn Village complex, including a retro store, a market, and mini golf. We did not get a chance to experience those, and we may need to do so next time. There will definitely be a next time, the owner here cares about his customers and it shows.

First, let me start from the outside going in. The street that the Inn is located is so quaint and charming, we weren't even inside yet, and I knew it was going to be wonderful. Diane and Chris were fantastic hosts, gave us tips on where to eat and things to do. The Inn has a fireplace in the common area along with coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. Our suite was a great size, and I was very impressed with how clean it was. The mattress was very comfortable, and so was the couch in the sitting room. The in room breakfast was perfect! Stocked juices in the mini fridge, fresh yogurt with honey and berries, and ready on our table were granola, fruits, scones, muffins, biscotti and the most delicious cakes. We did not get into our car at all as everything was less than a 10 min walk away. We did the train ride, a show at the opera house, Big Creek tasting room, Myst, Molly Maguires, and shopping.
