Schug House Inn

One of the best place’s I’ve ever stayed. JoAn & I were bicycling through the area and heard about the Schug House so we booked a room. This place is beautiful. They also let us park our bicycles in the garage.

When my fiancé and I decided to visit his grandparents in Berne, we figured we’d stay in the guest room of their retirement community. However, it was booked, so we had two options of where to stay: Schug House or a hotel. The hotel is newer and was $ 70+ and Schug House was historic and cost around $ 45. We thought it would be charming and a great value, and that’s what we got!
When I made the reservation, the owner was really friendly and helpful. She even gave us permission to invite the grandparents to breakfast! Without charging us! We didn’t know what time of night we’d get in, so she said she’d leave directions on the door. We didn’t have to worry about being locked out. We found our room, which was full of antiques. The bed was very comfortable and everything was very clean. Most B&Bs don’t have spacious rooms because they are in old homes, and this was no exception. But it was just fine for the two of us. We loved the room. The only thing that we didn’t like was the window air conditioning, again a throwback to the historic building. It was a little noisy. But the inn was pretty quiet overall. We didn’t hear the neighbors.
The breakfast was really good! I wasn’t expecting that much because we were told that it was fruit, cheese and 3 types of baked goods. It was very filling though. We started with a fruit cup. The baked goods were croissants, a breakfast bread (not sure of the kind), and coffee cake. Fresh and delicious. There was OJ, juice and tea. Also, cereal. The cheese was also yummy. I had a lot of it! Ha! They eat family style here, so be ready to mingle with other guests. Breakfast is served until 10, which is nice if you want to sleep in.
Did I mention the great price of this place? I’m still surprised for what we got!
If you’re looking for a charming place with friendly owners & workers and a yummy breakfast, make a reservation! My fiancé’s family said they are going to stay here now whenever they visit because it’s not much more than the guest room at the retirement community and has much more charm plus breakfast. We definitely will stay there next year on our annual visit as well!
