The Inn has changed ownership, and it shows. The internet service is very poor. The bed was hard and when we asked for brighter light bulbs for our bed side so we could read, the request was ignored. I asked to see the book that Pam the previous owner wrote about the Inn and enjoyed reading it, but later one of the staff took it away before I had a chance to finish it.

Property was pristine and absolutely gorgeous. Impeccably decorated appropriate to the style of the historic inn. Gourmet breakfast choices served with a smile and graciousness was the best i have experienced in 40 years of extensive travel!! Kudos to owner and employees. Don't even consider staying anywhere else in the Dover/Portsmouth area!

A gorgeous Victorian property full of antiques and character. Excellent staff provide an elegant full breakfast. Yes, there are stairs. But this was a lovely destination stay in a quiet neighborhood. Worth every penny.

The Silver Fountain Inn is a lovely old (1871) mansion that has been converted to a B&B. Everything about our experience would have been perfect except for the fact that when we arrived, we were shown to a room without an en- suite bathroom and were directed to use the hallway bath. This wasn't horrible, but it certainly was not what we were expecting. When you book make sure to clarify that your room will have an en-suite bathroom.

We spent 3 weeks driving through Canada and the East Coast of the US and this was the best place we stayed! The room was beautiful, clean and comfortable and the breakfast was great. Everyone who works there is friendly and welcoming.
