This was a cute little hotel. We did not actually interact with any staff members, we checked in very late due to flight complications and we left early to get our son to college so we got communications through email that made it quick and easy for us to get in and out. The continental breakfast was really nice.

Understaffed, sometimes you call the front desk there is no answer. They will not take wake up calls because they claim they do not have all the room extension phone numbers numbers. On check in we were told they customarily do not change towels or make beds until the last day of your stay! The free breakfast was barely edible, if there was a diner or cafe nearby I would have used it for breakfast. Rated 3 stars ? No way, more like 1 star. Call my review Never Again and Don't Recommend!

We stayed in the honeymoon suite. It was beautful. The pictures on their page didnt do it justice. The bed was delightfully large, the room was clean and perfectly temperatured. I specifically was looking for a room with a spacious whirpool. Although the pictures for the room didnt show it (i hope you update the pictures) i took a chance based on the description of the room. It did not disappoint. The whirpool was very big and clean. Also, something you dont really think about, but the lighting in the bathroom was GORGEOUS. That goes for the entire suite. For my ladies out there, the lighting is spectacular. You will look amazing no matter what part of the suite you are in. I would highly recommend this hotel and suite to anyone, and im grateful i got to experience it. The staff were lovely and someone was always at the front desk. They serve breakfast in a lovely dining room as well. Thank you for a great stay. Your pictures of the place DONT DO IT IUSTICE. I spent an additional hour or so researching hotels and rooms. Had the pictures truly reflected the suite, i would have reserved it immediately. I am glad I did though. Thank you!

Needing a smartphone and encouraging clickbait or requiring a download to get in the front door is not a good way to welcome guests who may have been on the road for days and out of touch with their electronics. Once we got home we figured out what you meant, that you had e-mailed, texted and called. But that did no good when we were standing at a locked front door. When we were at the front door another couple came up and could not get in either. Chain hotels in the area at comparable cost do not expect their guests to monitor their phones constantly. We know we are not the first guests to react this way.

We really enjoyed our stay at Brandywine River Hotel. We loved the fresh flowers on each table at breakfast, it was quiet and clean, and it was easy to check in and out. Size of the room was just perfect for our stay. Great stay overall!

The property is small and tucked away from the main road, which makes it convenient to the Brandywine River museum. It is also in walking distance to 2 restaurants. Clean and newer bathroom.
