If you ask for a room facing the harbor, you can gaze out onto the kid-friendly fountain and 8 acres of Waterfront Park.

"This charming 1763 building is one of 15 surviving homes owned by one of the 55 framers of the U.S. Constitution——and the only one converted into a hotel."

"The building has a New Orleans–esque exterior with wrought-iron architectural details, and inside, parquet floors sit beneath 14-foot ceilings adorned with plaster moldings." Full review

Guests can indulge in spa services or enjoy fine dining at the sister property Wentworth Mansion, which unfortunately is farther than what most folks choose to stroll.
