Wheeler Mansion

Frommer's Review

Want to feel like you've gone back in time without giving up modern amenities such as cable TV? This grand Italianate building has been restored and transformed into a bed-and-breakfast that combines the best of old and new. The mosaic tile floor in the vestibule and some of the dark walnut woodwork and fixtures are original to the house; welcome additions include good-sized private bathrooms (some have only shower stalls rather than bathtubs). The rooms -- which are spacious enough to include armoires and armchairs -- feel even larger than they are, thanks to the high ceilings. The four suites come with gas fireplaces. Antique European furniture fills the house, and guests sleep on goose-down feather beds with high-end linens. Adding to the homey ambience is the courtyard garden, where you can relax with a glass of wine after a day of sightseeing. A full gourmet breakfast -- served on elegant bone china -- is included in the daily room rate.
