The lure of historic New Bern, NC has lured us for many weekend getaways. The Meadows Inn has simply lured us for many more! The homemade breakfasts are wonderful. the stuffed French toast is wonderful. It's a great retreat. Kind of like going home, but better!

The innkeepers made us feel as welcome as family members (with the added privacy family doesn't allow). They truly made my husbands 40th birthday beyond expectations! The Josephine Suite was one of the most romantic rooms we have seen. Our friends and family stayed in "Grandma's Attic" and were equally impressed. I enjoyed myself so much that I suggested it to friends who went the following week. They were equally thrilled! Kudos to John and Betty for their wonderful hospitality and beautiful Inn!

From the initial phone call to me to introduce the Innkeeper and ask if I had any questions, I was very impressed. Everything was more than I expected. From check-in, directions, secure parking, service, restaurant suggestions and much more the entire weekend was just what was needed. Great location in walking distance of everything. We enjoyed the introduction of new folks at breakfast and discussing what everyone was doing and where they were from. A very pleasant experience and without any hesitations would recommend the B&B to anyone.

You really never know until you go with a reservation made on line so we're happy to share that Meadows Inn in New Bern can be relied upon to be everything it says it will be. Each room is different and special (some roomier than others so ask if that makes a difference to you). The Inn Keepers are friendly, hospitable and helpful and yet realize you are there to enjoy special time with family or friends and give you that free reign to feel at home and come and go with ease. Breakfast is freshly made each day. If there is something in particular you don't care for they ask about dietary restrictions on check in - mention it then since it is not buffet style. Cold beverages and ice are available throughout the day. Its in the center of the historic area and we walked to shops and food and the riverwalk. The Inn folk were helpful about places to see and offer suggestions. We could have used another day at least but we thoroughly enjoyed our time.

We had the entire third floor to ourselves. We walked about 36 steps to get to the third floor. The Granny's Attic is great for a large family-type group (Parents and Kids or relatives) in that there are three seperate rooms within the same hallway and directly across from each other. All three rooms share one bathroom. The master bedroom has it's own entrance to the bathroom. The other rooms enter from the hallway. Betty actually irons her linens! What a comforting treat - Thanks Betty! John was very helpful with directions. We were traveling from the north and John called us on our way to save us some travel time. He shared with us information about the new I-795 which eliminated about 20-30 minutes of travel time. Although Meadows Inn claims to have no Internet access, I was able to connect to Internet access from a nearby B&B. Breakfast was delicious each morning. Our breakfast usually consisted of orange juice and coffee or tea, an egg-type serving (egg souffle, egg casserole, etc.), and muffin or home baked bread. They even cater to specific dietary needs. If you have a chance, please give The Meadows a try. You will not be disappointed. John & Betty really do make you feel like part of their family, from the family decorations to the socializing and overall southern hospitality.

Innkeeper Response
We appreciate the gracious review but would like to correct the information regarding internet access. The Inn does have wireless internet access but the reception on the third floor is not as strong as the signal from the building next door. Thank you.

If you are looking for a a Bed and Breakfast that epitomizes the charm and relaxation of New Bern, please consider the Meadows Inn! John and Betty Foy really understand how to take care of their guests from "behind the scenes." Everything that you could need is at your fingertips - from lovely teas, coffee, cocoas and freshly baked pastries - to freshly ironed sheets, down comforters, and extra fluffy towels. The morning coffeepot miraculously seems to refill itself and Betty's beautiful hot breakfasts with seasonal fresh fruit are out of this world! (She really needs to write a B&B cookbook!!) The Inn is on "Bed and Breakfast Row" - an easy walk past other beautiful Victorian mansions to either the waterfront or to the unique shops and restaurants in Downtown New Bern. (Be sure to check out Mitchell's Hardware!) It really isn't necessary to use your car at all during your stay! Because our stay was during the holiday season, horse-drawn carriages clip-clopped past, offering tours of the downtown area. We remarked several times that we felt as though we had stepped inside of a Dickens Christmas Village postcard. We couldn't have been more delighted with our romantic 2 night stay. This is going to be our new "tradition" for kicking off our holiday season - a special gift "to ourselves." Thank you John and Betty!
