1842 Inn

This is a very old historic Inn whose staff make it great. When I told Katie that I was in Macon on an Allman Brothers Band Pilgrimage, she was kind enough to share her family’s history with the band, which I found fascinating. This made my stay great!! All of the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. The only thing that kept me from rating this a five star property were its towels and linens, both i considered where well below par for a great property. The towels were very thin and worn and of a very poor quality as well as the bed linens. The bathroom plumbing was also very old and poor for a great property ..sink was stuffed and ran slow and the toilet did not flush well. I realize this is a old property, but both must be upgraded in order to attain greatness. Without the staff, this is just a very old building… but is extremely charming.

Found this wonderful inn on the "Bring Fido" web site and it exceeded my expectations! Historic Inn that is beautifully restored, offers a fabulous terrace and awesome staff. Kate was very accommodating with my late arrival, and everyone loved my dog Oakley. Stayed in the Ben Hawkins room, which was lovely. I've stayed in many Inns & B&B's over the years, and this is at the top of the list for a restful stay that is accompanied by a breakfast that far exceeds the norm. My complements to Chef Lakecia, who personally delivered breakfast to my room (you really need to try the French toast). Hot coffee, fresh fruit and French toast, perfect! Oakley and I took a walk around the charming neighborhood to admire the beautiful homes before we left to continue our trip. We will definitely be staying here again on when in the area!

Such a lovely stay at the Inn during a business trip. The staff were so kind and accommodating. My lovely room in the main house was warm and welcoming. Breakfast in my room each morning was delicious and on time. Will stay again without a doubt and will share my wonderful experience with others who plan to visit Macon. Highly recommend! A++

My wife booked a weekend in Macon for my Birthday. We never knew we would fall in love with an historic inn like we did. The inn dates back to pre U.S. Civil War. Stepping in to this historic mansion was simply astonishing. The facility could almost pass as a beautiful museum thanks to all of the period furnishings and various antiques. Our room (the John Gresham Room) was on the second floor in the front of this stately dwelling. We were intrigued by the celebrities who had previously stated in our room. The list includes Cher, Davy Jones of the Monkees and Barbara Eden of I Dream of Jeanine fame. We could not have asked for more comfortable surroundings. We particularly enjoyed having a couple of Mint Juleps on the Inn's phenomenal veranda. The drinks were accompanied by some delicious Hors d'oeuvres. This made for s great setting to soak up the amazing history and surroundings at this wonderful facility. The amazing staff eas friendly and professional. They made you feel like family!!!! Many thanks to Jo Anne, La Kecia, Dovy, Kyle. Sarah and Gloria for offering true Southern Hospitality in this historic setting!!!! We love our stay at the amazing 1842 Inn so much that we are coming back in a couple of months. We were treat so well here we made some great friends with the amazing staff!!!! All in all if you are looking for a getaway with true Southern Hospitality look no further that the amazing 1842 Inn in Macon, Georgia!!!!!!

We've been by and through Macon several times over the years but never visited the city. On a recent trip to South Carolina, we decided to stop half way for the night and chose the 1842 Inn and were not disappointed. We were warmly welcomed by the whole staff. They took good care of us. Our room was very comfortable and very quiet - the two most important features for an overnight stay. Even though we ate breakfast rather early, the staff met us with smiles and an outstanding meal. My husband had the breakfast casserole which he loved; I had the Southern breakfast which was yummy but our highest praise goes to the English scones made by Chef LaKecia M. Out of this world and she gave me her recipe.!!
