We’re proud to share that U.S. News & World Report just ranked the Hollinger House as the second best bed & breakfast in Lancaster County for 2025. Out of more than 350 inns and small hotels evaluated across the country, this recognition highlights properties that deliver genuine hospitality, cozy rooms and the little extras that turn a stay into a memorable experience.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice what makes Hollinger House stand out. Our restored 1870 mansion sits on rolling countryside just south of downtown Lancaster, offering a peaceful retreat while keeping you close to the action. You’ll enter through classic architecture and discover seven individually designed suites. Each one features original details—like hand-carved antique furniture or a stunning arch-top window in the third-floor suite—that remind you of our history and craftsmanship.
Every morning, you’ll find a rotating hot entree alongside fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, warm pastries and sweet bread. Guests love our mushroom-Swiss frittata and vegetable quiche, but there’s always something new to try. We believe breakfast is the best way to start your day, so we keep it homemade, varied and delicious.
Cozy common areas invite you to linger. Curl up in the library with a good read. Challenge friends to a game in our game room. Sit on the wraparound porch and watch the sunset. In cooler weather, gather around the fire pit with lounge chairs for evening chats under the stars.
We know thoughtful amenities matter. Every suite (all but one with an en suite bathroom) includes free Wi-Fi, and our property offers on-site parking with EV charging stations. If you’re planning to explore Lancaster’s farmland, antiques, galleries or theatre scene, you can set out each day with confidence—then return to a home-style atmosphere and welcoming hosts.
This U.S. News ranking reflects what our guests already know: authentic touches and impeccable service make all the difference. Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway, a solo retreat or a small group event, you’ll find comfort, character and genuine care in every corner of Hollinger House.
