The Dartmouth House is tucked down a quiet residential street in an otherwise bustling part of Rochester, NY. We stayed there over the Christmas holidays because my grandma's house is too small to accommodate everyone. Ellie and Bill are absolutely wonderful--so friendly and not at all overbearing. They want to provide you with the best possible experience, whatever that is... More

We had the wonderful opportunity to stay in Rochester & enjoyed the sights. We spent the entire one day at the Eastman Kodak Home and it certainly made the trip worthwhile. The Home and property allows you to step back in time and enjoy the ways of the world in the old historic times in the rich and famous. The... More

I have traveled to dozens of American, Canadian and British B&B's since 1981. Each is chosen after extensive research. My goal has been to stay in only very high quality ones. Dartmouth House fits into that category. I consider it one of the best B&B's I have stayed at. The hosts are genuine, warm and are knowledgeable about Rochester. They... More

Bill and Ellie were wonderful hosts. Their accomplished lives and keen minds made them both fascinating to talk with, and an excellent resource to advise us on local attractions. The rooms in their charming home were large, wonderful, and immaculate. Their delightful conversation at the gourmet breakfast was hard to leave. We met other guests that had returned many times....

My husband and I have stayed at The Dartmouth House since the early 90's. We have visited family in the Rochester area and my husband has traveled alone on business trips and stayed there many times. The charm of this historical home and the gracious nature of both Bill and Elinor keep us returning time after time! They both take... More

Reviews on TA made this place sound irresistible, which only goes to show you that everyone is entitled to their opinion. Friends had steered us away from local hotels, so we decided to B&B it. For those who often enjoy this kind of experience, I imagine this place would be popular. Guest books, left here and there, overflow with praise.... More

The home was very well maintained and clean. Owners were super friendly and personable. Got a hug when leaving! Bed was so comfortable. Like sleeping on a cloud. And the breakfast was so good! Something new every morning. Great conversation around the table with different people from around the world! Would highly recommend it! More

A two-night leisure trip to Rochester was made particularly comfortable and pleasant by staying at the Dartmouth House. Bill and Ellie treated me very well, and the breakfasts were delicious and the location perfect. Highly recommended. More

We've stayed at the Dartmouth House Inn many times; it has virtually become our "second home" when we visit Rochester. We started as simple tourists, returning later to look at colleges, and now stay at the Dartmouth House when moving our son into and out of his dorm room. The B & B is ideally located in a lovely old... More
