About

This inn is best suited for history buffs and couples seeking a quiet, charming stay in Pittsburgh's North Side. Housed in the restored Bogg mansion, it opened in 1980 as one of the city's first B&Bs to operate under new city laws. The building features classic decor and a rich past, having hosted over 100 weddings and political fundraisers. Amenities include free WiFi and Jeff's famous homemade chocolate chip cookies.

Each of the 8 rooms has a private bath, and the expanded continental breakfast is included. The neighborhood's Mexican War Streets offer beautiful architecture for strolls. Owner-operators are former teachers who began with just three rooms in a $100 house sale. Regulars note the ambiance is unmatched, though staff can be sparse. Check hours and reviews.

“to quote others: beautiful & elegant”

Absolutely fantastic place! I haven't stayed or eaten here, but I've heard great things. I've enjoyed having drinks at the bar with friends and had a great time. Lovely atmosphere. The renovation of this bed and breakfast gets top marks.

The building is stunning. Room comfort varies. There aren't many staff. The restaurant is excellent. Located in a beautiful historic neighborhood, the Mexican War Streets, it's amazing.
