Official Description (provided by the hotel):: Once the home of Robert Morris who gained fame as "Financier of the Revolution". General and later President George Washington was a close friend and visited Robert Morris often. In more recent times author James Michener outlined his famous novel, Chesapeake here and fell in love with our renowned crab cakes. More history is located here. Now the Eastern Shore's most unique historic restaurant with rooms under celebrity Chef Proprietor, Mark Salter and Ian Fleming. Enter the Inn and step back 300 years: a pristine yet historic interior welcomes with timber beams, panelled walls and open fires in the cooler months. Through to Salter's Tavern featuring historic red brick walls and old slate floors, with magnificent fires in the cooler months and offering casual outside dining on our Terraces and Veranda during balmy warm summers. This is a truly historic Inn, cosy with a natural patina running through. Friendly, great cuisine and understated professional service. ... more less

“Relaxing Getaway”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

Oxford, MD is a great little historic town and the Robert Morris Inn provided an enjoyable stay. Stayed in the Bottle Cottage with King Bed and direct view out the front window overlooking the water and the oldest privately owned operating ferry. The room was as expected, comfortable with sitting, bath and two sink areas. Breakfast each morning was delicious... More

“Robert Morris Inn Review”

Reviewed 31 May 2013

In the sleepy little town of Oxford, MD, lies the Robert Morris Inn. At first glance, it appears quite charming, but the closer you get the worse it looks. In fact, the photos on their website appear to have been taken years ago when it was alive with all it's glory. It is an old, outdated, antiquated inn listed on... More

Many thanks for visiting our Inn and delighted you enjoyed your dining experience. The Vermont slate flagstone you refer to are dark but they are, like the Inn itself very historic and unique. The Inn is all about history and remains one of the most iconic and unique buildings on the Eastern Shore, if not America and we would be... More

“Wonderful historic place to stay - built in 1710”

Reviewed 26 May 2013

We stayed at the Robert Morris Inn for two nights, the 20th and 21st of June. The restaurant was excellent - the best green pea soup I have ever had. They have great breakfasts there, too. There is a ferry boat you can walk to and ride over to Bellevue - but it is better to take your car if... More

Thank you so much for staying at our charming and historic Inn. We appreciate your comments and business. This area offers up fabulous produce through the seasons and as you experienced, both in the restaurants and direct from the farm to the public. In the summer the Ferry does offer a great little trip across the river which connects our... More

“Outstanding value”

Reviewed 24 May 2013

My boyfriend and I recently spent two nights at the Inn on the midweek package that included meals. It was wonderful and we are already looking forward to going back. The two dinners we had in the tavern were superb. The room was small (as advertised) but adequate. The only issue was heat. We were there just before the room... More

Dear Dale, Many thanks for your kind words and generous comments, we are delighted you enjoyed your experience at the Inn. Whilst our Cabin rooms are tiny and simple, they are comfortable and give us the opportunity to offer incredible Eastern shore value. Regards Ian & Mark More

We visited here on Fri-Sun in May for our wedding anniversary. The Robert Morris Inn is indeed historic and very quaint. We stayed in one of the Bottle Cottages. Keep in mind that this is a very small town and the Inn is historic; so if you are expecting lots of amenities, it is not that kind of place. There... More

If you are looking for a 5 star hotel with all modern amenities then this is not the place for you. The Robert Morris Inn is a step back in time to 1710. The Inn, and the ferry to get there, are steeped in history. The hotel is a gem, and once inside the door you are ushered into another... More

Our little get away was given to us by our children as a Christmas gift. Very friendly staff, excellent food in the restaurant, breakfast and dinner. If anything negative, the bed and bath in the rooms on the 2nd floors are small. I inquired about it and learned the rooms on the 3rd floor have king beds and larger baths.... More
