Soundview Manor Bed & Breakfast

A most enjoyable, month long stay at this particular villa, with gracious host family and service par excellence.

It was perfect! Wonderful, warm and so inviting. It is hard to leave. We look forward to returning in the summer.

Wonderful Time-Wonderful Place!

Great visit, beautiful historic house. Great breakfast!

This historic manor was impeccable-the room was comfortable and the service outstanding. I would highly recommend staying here.

There are few gems like this in White Plains or anywhere else. A beautiful home, a stately manor, and wonderful hospitality!

As a fellow aficionado of history, I felt completely at home here working on my historical research in this area. I felt history come alive at the manor!

The house is beautiful and the staff most accommodating!

This is such a beautiful house and the owners took great care of us. A treasure.

Great place, great breakfast!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this historic home. Host and staff were very attentive to our needs.

Wonderful, peaceful, gracious host and a small slice of heaven in Soundview

Wonderful, peaceful, gracious host and a small slice of heaven in White Plains.

We stayed at Historic Soundview Manor over the weekend. We all enjoyed the experience of life in a glorious bygone era. Our hostess was wonderful and made sure that all our needs were met. We would definitely return.

A beautiful home-Manor House in one of the oldest residential neighborhoods of White Plains, located minutes from Bet Am Shalom Synagogue -- literally next door -- where we were attending a family Bat Mitzvah. We're from Riverdale, NY, but had to be in walking distance for the event or could not have attended. Quaint, romantic rooms like The Victorian Room, delicious breakfasts, and restful nights. Who could ask for anything more?

Enjoyed the entire stay, the history and the ambiance! I would highly recommend Soundview Manor over any hotel!

Soundview Manor is absolutely beautiful! The house is gorgeous and so comfortable. After my stay here I probably will never stay in a hotel again. The bedrooms are like having your own small apartment or suite. I slept like a baby here. The outside space is beautiful as well and makes you feel like you are at a park. Soundview Manor is also pet friendly, my dog had a great time running all over the property and Ms. Dee and the staff treated him like he was a king. Ms. Dee is a wonderful host and I feel like a part of the family here. I highly recommend Soundview Manor if you will be visiting the NY area. It is close to everything, and is only a short train ride to NYC. I am in NY frequently for work and will not stay any place else!

A joyful place to stay and learn about our american heritage and history. I specially enjoyed playing the piano. It was wonderful and can't wait to comeback.

Our girls really adored it! We were so lucky to find such a haven after Hurricane Sandy left our home without power. Hopefully we'll return under better circumstances.

Beautiful mansion with loving owners who make you feel at home, with nice rooms in a cerene part of White Plains. What's not to love?

This beautiful mansion sits on acres of land, like a park. The old Italian there is just breath taking! The owners are warm and caring! If you are ever near the soundview manor, go and stay for a wonderful time!

We had no power in the midst of a terrible situation we found an oasis in this beautiful home. My boys just loved it! We were all warrnly welcomed and felt right at home.

As a physician with family down in Florida, commuting weekly to a leading Westchester pharmaceutical company, I find this unique private home B&B and its congenial atmosphere most relaxing and enjoyable.

In a historic home with great hospitality. Came from South Africa to celebrate a Bat Mitzvah at the temple just around the corner with my family from Scarsdale. Enjoyed everything!

A pleasure in every way!

Warmth, history and comfort. great place to relax and enjoy.

A very well-appointed B&B, historically stunning grounds, and a super inn proprietor in Ms Dee and her staff. Thanks so much.

Soundview Manor is the perfect home away from home, location is very close to where the activities are and yet you are in a quiet area. Close to train, too, for transit to Manhattan.

The Soundview Manor B&B is a charming, historically significant B&B in White Plains. Guests are made to feel like cherished friends. This historical property must be preserved!

This historic home is a wonderful experience. Beautiful rooms and lawn grounds. You and your friends will love this as a stop to NY

Soundview is a sparkling gem set in a dreamy garden surrounded by peace and tranquility. The interior is romantic, quaint, and very appealing. Highly recommend it!

A perfect, quiet base for the traveling professional. As a surgical resident, I needed quiet, conveinent lodging near the Westchester Medical Center. I looked long and hard for apartments in the area and found nothing that compares to this beautiful mansion. Its location on the last piece of undeveloped land in White Plains makes it a historic treasure. The lovely gardens and accommodating hosts are an unexpected bonus! A number of physicians and architects whose work took them to Manhattan for weeks and months stayed here at the same time I did. Anyone looking to work or live in the Hudson Valley without buying an apartment should put Soundview Manor at the top of their list.

A beautiful weekend, very comfortable and beautiful grounds. Close to everything, would come back again

I had an amazing time during my time at Soundview Manor. What a fantastic place to be!

Very peaceful, beautiful grounds, hospitable family who opened up their home and made us feel most welcome

Kinder and gentler experience which takes you away from your everyday actiivites and run-around.

At a moment's notice, my sister and I needed a place to stay close to Scarsdale. By a twist of fate, we were told about Soundview Manor which turned out to be our port in the storm. Doris and her staff took us in like family. The home is a masterpiece, elegant and warm. Our room was cozy and spacious at the same time. Everyone there was delightful and eager to please and the location proved perfect, accessible to connecting roads yet in a very private and beautiful setting. We are now sold on B&Bs and will start our search for the next place we need to stay on this site and avoid hotels wherever possible.

We had a very pleasent stay with Ms. Dee's remarkable hospitality. Being from Japan, I appreciate her enourmous efforts to preserve this historic gem.

I came from Holland for a two-month business and pleasure stay at the historic Soundview Manor B&B in White Plains, NY, which has been completely wonderful. I truly enjoyed the experience during my entire stay. Hosts and staff were helpful in every way. My beautiful room overlooking the rear gardens made me feel very comfortable. Never a dull moment with everything Westchester County has to offer. Great restaurants, shopping malls, golf courses, museums and much more, with a quick ride to NYC for my day trips. Definitely a place to return to! Mandisa Oosterling

What a pleasure to find such a warm, welcoming and accomodating place to stay so close to business district. The people went out of their way to make sure all of our needs were met and the charming atmosphere made for a most lovely weekend!

Wonderful experience in a marvelous old mansion. Fantastic! Stayed there just a night in a hectic trip. Huge relief over the chain hotels. Marvelous place and staff. French restaurant was by as well. All good!

This inn is one of the best we have stayed. Hosts Ellen and Simon were wonderful hosts.

Great ambiance, beautiful grounds, very gracious hosts - I would recommend this B&B to anyone.

Would highly recommend to anyone wishing to stay in the area. Very warm reception during my stay.

Very charming and convenient location. Extremely gracious hosts.

A magnificent estate, perfectly cared for and wonderfully spirited. The peace and perfect state of this home fill your very soul with calm and joy. I will return for more.

Lovely, historic home - beautifully maintained and incredibly accommodating.

Recently stayed at Soundview Manor; the staff could not have been more accommodating, and the top floor suite was gigantic, with lovely views of the stately lawn. The mansion, in all of its faded glory, made me feel like I had stepped back into a more elegant time.

What a treat it was to build a crackling fire upon returning to our spacious penthouse suite after an amazing party. The next morning astounded to see deer and a commanding view of the Long Island sound on this 4.5 acre estate so close to New York. Beautifully appointed. We totally enjoyed our stay and our time with Pioneer Feminist Attorney and Innkeeper Ms Dee and ultra-courteous staffpersons Ellen, Jacinta and Simon. David - Hatfield, Massachusetts.

My husband and I stayed in the penthouse for one night this winter. After joining friends for the evening, we returned to Soundview Manor and made a fire in the fireplace. In the morning, we viewed the sound from the french doors leading to a wide open balcony. Having a kitchen was nice and the fresh cherries were very thoughtful. We had a wonderful stay.

I love this historic house! I would love to return and visit again!

It's as if the founders didn't go far enough in naming this beautiful place, for, in addition to sound and sight, Soundview delights the senses of touch, taste, and smell, too. Yet the sixth sense -- hospitality -- shines most brightly.

This is a beautifully decorated home with a very friendly hostess. We were warmly greeted. This was a quick overnight as I was visiting my daughter at Sarah Lawrence and on a tight schedule. I wish it had been more relaxed with time to wander the beautiful grounds. Maybe next time...

This is an incredible B&B. Oh if this mansion could talk. Splendid accomidations at an affordable rate. The Manor is even more charming with the wonderful friendly hostess Ms D. Attention to every detail!!! I will stay there again on my next visit to Westchester County.

This place is located close to NCNY shopping and churches and provides an elegant place in which to put up out-of-town guests.

Colorful plates, hardwood floors, and loving innkeepers make for a wonderful experience.

wonderful hospitality

Felt very comfortable; the era and surroundings made me feel at home and that I was born in the wrong era of today! Felt like home away from home!

Charming, just charming!!

The definition of a luxurious B&B. Unmatched hospitality in a historic and elegant setting. A truly unique estate!

We will definitely recommend to all of our friends and family.

a lovely spot all around. a great place to spend our anniversary.

Stepping into antique & old world charm was peaceful & serene. Thanks for a great stay!

Beautiful in & out. Quiet, tranquil, welcoming & wonderful retreat.

Time stands still. A beautiful manor home, warm and inviting hosts. A must visit.

A beautiful respite near the temple. Architecturally & furnished comfortably. A gracious innkeeper delicious centennial breakfast. A must see and a must experience!

Thanks for taking such good care of my husband and my daughter.

What a wonderful secret in White Plains, NY. Beautiful historic home. Gracious living at its best!

We only stayed here for one night on our way up to Maine. Wished we could stay longer! A wonderful one night stay. The grounds are beautiful! We hope to be back! Comments may be published on your site.

Beautiful home and lovely hosts. Quiet neighborhood, restful and calm yet near everything.

July 23, 2008 Thanks for such a unique experience! What a great adventure.

There can be no doubt that when you arrange for a stay at this stately manor, you will be happy you did so. The home is a stunning example of an early 1920s era mansion in this old City. The fact that this home and the grounds about it still exist is a tribute to the charming hostess, Ms. Dee. She, likeswise, is a jewel. It is the rare find for anyone looking for an enjoyable stay in this part of Westchester. Don't pass up the opportunity.

Just 35 minutes from Manhattan, this gem is worth your while. The owner, staff and beauty of the surroundings are unbeatable.

Had a wonderful stay and will definitely come again. Easy access to train and quick ride into the city.

Soundview Manor has wonderful charm and elegance.The ambiance of this B&B is so very special. Each room done with impeccable details. Peaceful,clean with lovely beautiful gardens and folliage. 5 Star Service(from Ms Dee and her kind staff), along with 5 star atmosphere and accomidations! Put this visit as a MUST STAY on your list. I loved it. I'm planning a return visit very soon! I can almost smell the fresh baked banana bread coming from their kitchen.
