Bottom line: The hotel is quite and rural and the staff is friendly. The other amenities are pretty standard or nothing special, but this is a good hotel. Rooms: Clean and comfortable. Oddly enough there was a phone in the bathroom. Service: The staff was incredibly friendly. The ones I talked to always had a smile and were very helpful.... More

Anyone visiting the famed Dupont gardens and Museums of the Delaware Valley, should consider a stay at the Mendenhall Inn. My wife and I visit Winterthur Museum and gardens, Longwood gardens, and the many attractions near Chadds Ford, PA, and Wilmington DE several times each year. We recently discovered the Mendenhall Inn and is now our choice for lodging and... More

Not an inn in the stictest sense but a hotel with average motel style rooms and some of our friends told me that their room was never serviced by housekeeping. Unattractive breakfast area with so-so fare is included in room rate. Banquet hall is impressive and a great place to hold a large function but service is poor and unattentive.... More

I and many members of my family have stayed at the Mendenhall many times over the years and have always been welcomed. My mother lives nearby and I stay there each time I visit. Although I only stay there two to three times a year, each time I arrive, I am greeted personally by name by the front desk staff.... More

I agree with other reviews- nice hotel, comfortable and clean with helpful staff. Breakfast was typicall US standard, for me as european a little choice.

Our room was clean, comfortable and a nice size. The furnishings were very traditional and maybe a little dated, but fine. The grounds were pretty and I imagine that they would be even nicer at a different time of year. Our only complaint was breakfast. Several of us were told that it would be served at 7:00 a.m. (Sunday), but... More

The hotel has a misleading taped phone greeting. It makes the place sound like it's primarily a wedding destination. The staff is efficient, helpful, the rooms are clean and adequate and the complimentary breakfast buffet is OK too.

Came here for a retreat with my wife of 10 years and wanted to see Longwood Gardens at Christmastime. While checking in, we met David, who was a very likable guy who knew the area well. He routed us to Half Moon Saloon in the next town over and then to a great place in West Chester called Iron Hill... More
