Description:
Get a touch of history and a dash of artistry in your hotel stay. The small country inn in its current form was opened in 1995, but the property dates from 1895, when the Roycroft Arts and Crafts Community was founded by Elbert Hubbard. Hubbard's self-contained community supported hundreds of craftspeople, and he opened his door to those journeying to this craftsman's mecca. Common areas are intimately rustic, with lots of Roycroft originals that you're actually allowed to sit on. Though guest rooms aren't huge, they're hardly cramped. A touch of history is in all of them -- they're outfitted with at least one original Roycroft piece, plus some reproductions: heavy, solid wooden pieces that lend a distinguished air to your stay. But there's nothing stuffy about the place -- it's comfy and thoroughly modern, as are the sizable bathrooms. The restaurant is fantastic and listed separately.
