I cannot properly express in words how utterly fantastic our stay in The Merchant's Room was, or how accommodating, thoughtful, and prepared our hosts were during our stay. Not only was the room every literary enthusiast's fantasy (the four poster bed! The chaise lounge! The lamps! THE BATHROOM mural!), but we were astounded by the level of care our hosts put into our stay. From meal recommendations to wine classes to a charcoal filtered water pitcher, they made us seen, pampered, and utterly welcome.
As completely incredible as our accommodations were, breakfast was pinnacle of the experience. The chef makes a different breakfast each morning for guests, and shops for local and fresh ingredients each morning. We had eggs benedict, with fresh vegetables and bleu cheese the morning of our stay (along with a London Fog!), and "mouth-watering" and "delicious" cannot cover the height of the culinary favor and expertise poured into the meal.
We will be back again--in fact, we cannot wait to book our stay again.
