Alpenhof Bed and Breakfast

The Muller's Alpenhof is a 300-year-old converted barn, just minutes from downtown Philadelphia, the airport, and several desired attractions. We boast incredibly comfortable beds, great amenities, cooked-to-order breakfasts, amazing gardens, and great hospitality. We're 3 minutes from Pennsylvania's largest State Park and Arboretum and 5 minutes from Media and local rail lines for easy travel into Philly! Definitely NOT your typical B&B!

    Photo Album

    A beautiful shot of the barn from under the arbor -- acting as the entrance way into the rock garden. The spikes in the foreground are from an amazing specimen -- a 35-year-old cedrus glaucae pendula that wraps itself halfway around the garage and along the entire entrance of the garden.Master Suite - private full bath, California king bed w/4" closed-cell foam topper, sitting area...much more.

    Otto's Room - 2 Twin BedsThe 3rd floor bathroom - located in the hallway between Otto's and Roland's rooms.
    Main entrance overlooking the living room and leading to the master suite.Some of the beautiful stenciling in the grand entrance done by artist Anh Pham.
    The grand entrance leading off to Monica and Heidi's rooms.The dining room / breakfast table by the late, great George Nakashima usually gives our guest great pause when they come down for breakfast -- claiming it is almost too beautiful to eat off of...we can usually convince them otherwise!
    Reverse angle of the dining area where our guest meet each morning for good conversation and a great breakfast.A far shot of the living room...which sometimes doubles as a performance room for recordings ...is a common sitting area w/fireplace for all our guests to enjoy.
    The living room is a comfy place to kick back, relax, and enjoy a good read or a nice fire (winter season only).The original curb stones from our town center of Media form the steps down through the outrageous rock garden into the tropical gardens in the backyard.  Lighting from local artist Thomas Rupnicki of LaSorgente Glass grace the landscapes throughout the property.
    Stroll through the outrageous rock garden!
