Horrible Experience Booking and Cancelling at 1842 Inn

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

I booked 4 nights with The Reservation to stay at the the 1842 Inn (July 9 thru 12) and I was advised that my credit card was required right away so as to lock in the room for the 4 nights stay, and I was also informed that I could cancel the 4 nights if needed as long as I called prior to July 7th. I called the 1842 Reservation number on July 5th and asked to cancel as I no longer needed to travel to Macon Georgia. When I called to cancel I was told that I would be charged $367.42 penalty. I argued that this was an unreasonable penalty fee as I never stayed at this Inn and I did cancel the reservation in due time for a full refund as was promised. The person at the Reservation desk argued with me and stated it was their policy to charge me $367.42 penalty. I feel that this is a scam and I will never again book with this company.

Charming old Inn

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

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.

Stayed overnight on the way to Ft Lauderdale

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++

Southern Hospitality lives at the 1842 Inn in Macon, Georgia!!!!!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 months ago

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!!!!!!

My wife and I spent a four days at the 1842 Inn. The décor was lovely, the rooms and grounds peaceful and soothing, the food excellent, and best of all the staff were pleasant, friendly, and attentive. I’m not sure how the location could be better, as were able to explore a number of historic and architectural sites within a half mile of the Inn. Overall, and especially if you are looking for a rest with quiet, good food, and pleasant staff, the 1842 Inn is the place.
