Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Philadelphia

Always great to stay at Jo-Ann's! We came for my brother's graduation at Swarthmore. The house is cozy, the room is comfortable, and Jo-Ann is very kind and helpful. We're glad to have found her place and are grateful for her hospitality.

I had a lovely stay in Jo-Ann's clean and comfortable home. I was in Swarthmore for a reunion event, and appreciated that I was only a short walk from both the Swarthmore "Ville", which now has a nice selection of restaurants and a farmer's market on weekends, as well as the Swarthmore College campus and the SEPTA station. My room was immaculate and the beds very comfortable. Jo-Ann offer's a lovely breakfast spread and excellent coffee. She was very helpful and responsive to my questions, and the keypad entry made it easy to come and go. I enjoyed my stay and would be happy to stay here again!

We have stayed with Jo-Ann several times, since we have a recurring event in this area and she has been extremely friendly without being overbearing and very flexible and accommodating each time. We will be happy to stay with her in the future.

I really enjoyed my stay there while being here in Philadelphia for the first time in my life. What a great city! Jo's location is very convenient to access downtown. Jo's home has radiated heating, which is wonderful for those sensitive to central heated air drying the nose and throat. Her home is quaint, warm, and inviting and situated in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. If I ever return to this great city, I will be sure to book Jo's BnB!

Marcia is nice, friendly, and responsive. The place is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. The place is close to transit stations (a regional rail station, a few bus stops, and a trolley station). There're several stores and restaurants close to the the rail station. The neighborhood is peaceful. In all, during my stay, I felt at home, and would like to stay again if I have a chance!

The whole experience was surreal: a beautiful country mansion set among farmland (alpaca, sheep emu!), yet within minutes of shopping and restaurants Absolutely beautiful suite in the true tradition of a bnb. Highly recommended

What a great find! JoAnn is a brilliant host and makes everything so easy. Her home is perfectly located in a residential area just a few blocks from the village and university. This is a real BnB, where she makes a beautiful breakfast for you, rare these days. I found the bed to be perfect. The room was just what I needed, with my own air control and work space, I had everything I need. This place is a gem. Book it.

Molly and Dan are fantastic people. They welcomed us into their home and made us feel like a party of the household. The house is full of warmth and charm found in antiquity. They’re black cat was super friendly. Would 100% recommend a stay at the James Matthew’s house. Beautiful garden, private covered porch, and so many snacks!!

Absolutely wonderful on all fronts! 10 out of 10 would recommend to others and will happily stay here again!

Location was great… near stores & some restaurants. Most of it was private & quiet… my room (201) had a spacious en suite bathroom and peaceful green views. Had coffee & snacks daily downstairs ( nice Keurig machine!). Overall, met & exceeded expectations.

We found our home away from home in New Jersey. Whenever my husband and I travel to NJ, this is the first place we will check to see if they have room for us to stay at the Lily Inn on High Street. We loved the area. The Lily Inn is walking distance to the Delaware river. The Lily Inn has free parking it may be around the corner but it is free. This building will bring you back in time. The Queen Room with Garden View has an updated bathroom so you can relax after a nice hot shower. Remember it is an old house so you do have to wait for the hot water, but once its hot it stays hot for the remaining time of your shower. The bed was so comfortable the both of us slept like babies. We had warm weather so we did not need the fireplace. We might go back in the winter just to try out the fire place. Our Breakfast was amazing!! Made with love by Tom and his wife Alejandra. They made us feel so welcomed told us a little history of the Lily Inn and the surrounding area. Some people can not do stairs so keep in mind this place does have stairs to the bedrooms. We met with Devin on our last day of our stay she was also welcoming. The garden in the back is a nice touch to just sit and relax or if you like to do yoga or Tai Chi like my husband. We will be back whenever we are in the area. Thank you for such a wonderful stay. We never felt to welcomed as we did at the Lily Inn. Remember to put Lily Inn on High street on your GPS lol. We met the owner of the place and she gave us her number so we could call her anytime. We had such a wonderful time my husband and I didn't want to leave. Until next time.

A gem of a place. It's nice, clean and cozy. Owner was friendly and responsive. I also like the old-style feel of this place which adds to its charm. Will definitely be back.

Easy to check in and very clean. Would stay again if in area.
