A few words about us from our guests as found on Google reviews.

Jim D.

Claire and Greg are excellent hosts! They have spared no effort to make the Mendenhall 1884 an attractive, comfortable, and inviting inn, down to the smallest detail! Congenial, welcoming, and attentive, they make their guests feel pampered. The B&B is close to everything that draws people to Berkeley Springs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be repeat guests – especially for Claire’s delicious breakfasts!

Claire and Greg are exquisite, gracious hosts who run the Mendenhall Inn, a beautifully restored historic house. They are kind people one can only hope to meet when traveling. Claire and Greg’s thoughtful care includes starting the day with deliciousness served for breakfast and helping select local places to enjoy. Many gorgeous rooms, reminiscent of a genteel time in history, embellished with modern amenities, made my stay an indulgence.

If there were MORE than 5 stars as a rating this B and B warrants it….This lovely historic home in the heart of Berkley Springs is one of the best guest experiences we’ve ever had. First, the hosts, Greg and Claire are truly the epitome of hospitality. Their friendly and welcoming faces greet you upon your arrival. We walked on to the porch and Greg greeted us warmly followed by sweet Claire. They truly have the hearts of servants. We spent a good amount of time on that porch getting to know them and parted with new friends! We also met some other wonderful guests. Greg and Claire were able to suggest some local businesses and events to visit which we appreciated. We were in town for our son’s wedding and Greg and Claire were gracious to family in town that stopped by the porch to meet us. Claire prepares delicious breakfast items, sourced as much as possible local and organic. They have paid incredible attention to detail and it shows. We stayed in the room called Bailey’s Bungalow. While small, it has a very comfortable queen bed (the bedding!) and small attached private bathroom. The air conditioning was kept at a perfect temperature. Out back there is a beautiful garden area. But THAT PORCH was our favorite, especially when set for breakfast. They set a lovely table and remember your coffee or tea preferences! We will never forget this experience and plan to stay there whenever we visit the area, hopefully every year.
