Fantastic Friendly Historic Inn

Everything about this historic inn is great! The staff are amazing with special mentions for Cathy(hope this is the correct spelling) who made our stay. Her recommendations were spot on and her sheer enthusiasm and love of Macon is a credit and great benefit for this Inn. Also a special mention too for Sarah and her delicious mint julip. The rooms are beautiful and very large. It’s very friendly and we chatted with other guests. There were single travellers staying and I can see that this would be a great place to do this as well as for couples or groups. Breakfast was delicious too. I would thoroughly recommend this inn for a trip to Macon. You can walk downtown easily to the local restaurants and bars. It was easy and cheap to get Ubers too.

Greeted and staff walked us to our room which was quite nice. Lovely and comfortable king size bed in the Macon Room. Met several nice folks on the porch then Uber-ed to dinner. Breakfast was really good cheesy grits and crisp bacon while my mate enjoyed the sausage casserole with fruit. Loved the Royal Cup coffee they served. We only stayed one night but it was a nice stay.

A Macon Treasure: The 1842 Inn!

We were captivated at check in when we were greeted by Miss JoAnne Dillard at the front desk. A delightful treasure that added to the beauty of the front parlor! We had a comfortable, pleasant, relaxing stay as the staff was very accommodating, and made us feel quite at home.

Our weekend in Macon was delightful thanks to the 1842 Inn. Very clean and quiet. We were in the cottage behind the main house and loved it! From check in to check out everything was great. The staff is outstanding and made us feel so relaxed and special. Don’t miss the Mint Juleps at cocktail time!
