Magnolia Room - second floor
David G.

Great property close to all the sites. Innkeepers were fantastic, friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended! One suggestion would be to create a site map for room and building locations along with improved descriptions for bath size or other room features.

This place has so much character and it is so super cute. First of all I would like to say that the owners are so sweet. They were putting up the Christmas decorations and everything looked so festive and lovely. The room we were in was warm and cozy and it had that old fashioned charm. The house itself was built in 1882. It is close to downtown so park your car and go for a nice stroll. The owners did a wonderful job with the inside and the outside. I definitely would stay here again. The food was delicious and they were so hospitable. I am going to tell everyone about our stay. If you're lucky you'll see some nice shiny pennies lying around.

We had a wonderful stay. New Bern is the cutest little town. The location is prefect. We walked everywhere we went. Breakfast was yummy. Kathy and all the staff were wonderful and made us feel right at home. My only complaint would be the light shining through the windows at night, but I would definitely stay here again.

We just got back from a wonderful stay at The Aerie! I can't say enough good things. Beautiful property and wonderful service. The breakfast is also 10/10! If you're looking for a charming place to stay to give you the full New Bern vibe-this would be it!

Original building that is outback

Beautifully decorated with so many nice touches for their guests such as water and snacks, and 5:00 wine. The rooms are beautiful and the bed was divine. We liked that this B and B wasn't right beside all the others. It's close to downtown and the breweries.

King size bed that's so comfortable

Just had a wonderful one night stay in the Hidden suite. It has its own private entrance off the back of the Inn. The room was so quiet and we felt like the only guests. There are a lot of stairs to climb up, so be aware. The suite was beautiful and tastefully decorated. The king sized bed was very comfortable and the linens were like butter! We overslept and missed breakfast, but a good nights sleep was well worth it. Lots of outdoor areas to unwind. Will definitely stay here again.

I would stay here every night if I could. I had the King George Suite and I loved every detail of the room. The mixture between modern amenities and Victorian window treatments and decor were in perfect harmony. The owners were lovely! I spent a good amount of time speaking with Beth and she is amazing! Her husband can sure cook, too! My breakfast was 5 star! The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. I think it was the perfect pillows and the bedding they chose. Complete luxury. The bathroom in this particular suite was beautiful. The stain glass window about the tub was so relaxing and beautiful. I highly recommend this place! This has been my favorite bed and breakfast ever. Also, the social hour wine and cheese were the perfect touch

Our room

Happy to have gotten a room at The Aerie - and with our dog Rosa (they take pets!). As soon as you arrive, you're welcomed by the charm of this historic 1880 home with its thick wood moldings and original glass windows. Our bed was so luxurious, we overslept almost every morning. The service was perfect and the breakfast was a wonderful way to start the day. The owners, John and Beth, had recently updated the dining and the living rooms - and they're beautiful. My husband and I enjoyed talking with other guests and sitting around the firepit in the evening. We've never been to New Bern before but loved our morning walks around the waterfront, dinners at The Chelsea, Cypress Hall and Persimmons (all delish), the lovely shops - and the historical walking tour. Excited to return in the fall!

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights while he had some business to attend in New Bern. We stayed in the Carolina Room on the first floor - it is flled with beautiful antiques and one of the most comfortable beds I have ever experienced! Marty and Michael are perfect hosts, and the breakfasts are scrumptious! Will definitely stay here again!

Champagne delivered to our room!

This was our first experience with a bed and breakfast. Would recommend again and again! We loved the old world charm and decor of the home. The staff was amazing and went above and beyond to make our experience one of a kind. Can't wait to go back!

What a lovely experience! My husband and I were looking for a quick getaway with the only parameters being, someplace we had never been before and in the great state of North Carolina. After a brief internet search, we found The Aerie Bed and Breakfast in New Bern, NC. If you've not been to New Bern, NC, or like us, hadn't even realized it existed, you're in for a treat! The town is small enough you can park the car and enjoy brief walks to almost any venue. There are multiple delicious restaurants and live music bars around the quaint town center. There are also shops offering local artwork, clothing boutiques and, of course, ice creams and handmade fudge. The jewel in the crown for us, however, was our stay at The Aerie. We enjoyed the private room with eleven foot ceilings and updated bathroom. It was comfortable and quiet. They offered complimentary bottles of water, carbonated drinks, coffee and teas as well as delicious, freshly made baked goods. (These were NOT from a box...think mom's cookies.) The proprietors, Dina and Keith, were terrific hosts. If you are people/people like we are, the wine and cheese social at 5:00 every afternoon is a fun way to meet others looking for an unique and non-traditional overnight experience. We met people we felt we'd known forever. If you prefer solitude, The Aerie was large enough with comfortable private areas that you did not have to be social if you'd prefer. The grounds were beautiful with plants and seating areas tended to by Keith himself. The venue also offers an event center and additional rooms all conveniently located in the same block. My husband and I highly recommend The Aerie for your next quick getaway. We will surely be back.

See all

I can't quite bring myself to give more than 3 stars to this hotel…read more There are several PROs to this facility, but also several CONs. So 3 stars is all I can assess. PROs: - Military discount made this one of the best value in New Bern. The selection is not high in this little costal town and from what I saw online this seemed the best deal at $98 a night. - Newly remodeled this hotel looks like it belongs into the 21st century and has a nice modern look an feel - Private lot, outside of town. Area has tons of restaurants options accessible by walking (mostly chains). - Hotel has an indoor pool and small gym and even a convention room. - Hotel offers breakfast with MANY items to select from both hot and cold. The young lady that works breakfast is very nice, friendly and a hard worker. - The beds and bed linens were super comfortable (although there were some stains on the comforter. Sheets were clean though). - Many towels were provided in the room, so the fact that they only change linens for stays longer than 3 days was not a deterrent. CONs: - Room cleanliness left to be desired. I walked barefooted on the carpet and my feet got covered in sand. The toilet was not properly scrubbed and neither was the sink overflow. This is a large enough hole that it's easy to reach for cleaning so that should not be a problem. - AC units don't work properly making the room stuffy and smelling stale even though the units are on all day. - Mold is a big issue in this facility. The bathroom do not have fans that automatically turn on when the lights are on, so I suppose the steam from showering is the culprit for all the mold on the ceiling and rust on the light fixture. It was a bit scary to see what conditions this hotel is in after being renovated only recently. - Moss is covering the outside of the window panes making it nearly impossible to look outside one's window. Time to call a window cleaning crew. - Hotel is in a bit of disrepair. Our remote did not work, so we had to manually use our TV for our stay. The volume would not work at all so we were stuck with the previous visitor's settings for that as well. The sink in the bathroom was cracked and the pool/spa area was not as fresh and clean as one would hope for. Also the hot tub was so hot that one could not sit in it for longer than 5 minutes straight. The pool's temperature was on the cold side, so switching from one to the other felt a bit like playing Norwegian sauna. - Staff friendliness is a total hit or miss here. Some personnel is as friendly as could be, smiles, friendly attitude and willingness to really help. Others are frowning all the time, short and seem to resent your stay. Not sure what that is all about. All in all, compared to other hotels in the area, I still feel like it's a good value for the cost but I wished there was more pride of ownership in this facility as it could definitely be a great place!

Excellent in nearly every regard. Clean, well appointed. The handicapped bathroom featured a tub…read morerather than a roll-in shower, and the bed was a smidge higher than ideal, but neither of those things was insurmountable. I recommend.
