We were traveling nearby for a concert in ST Paul MN and decided to book a room at the Afton House Inn as it was a quieter area and was fun to check out a more historical hotel with some pretty views around it. This was a fun place I would give it 5 stars for their Friendly and Accommodating Staff alone, Everyone we encountered there was very friendly and tried to make our stay a wonderful one. This hotel does have some darker lighting and does bring you back in time a little bit with the decor but we really enjoyed how they maintained the Historical Integrity of the place with it being the first operating Inn in Minnesota and it was also very charming and comfortable. It had a few little quirks such as with the Jacuzzi with it having well water you needed to run the water first then drain it and then run it again and was a bit warmer temperature wise overall in the hotel room. But it was fine...My husband opened up the window a little bit at night and was a mild breeze and the room was perfect. The Bed was very comfortable, Room had everything you would need for a nice hotel stay other than wasn't a coffeemaker in the room or a refrigerator however you can get coffee downstairs and there also was a coffeeshop attached to the hotel as well if you wanted coffeeshop coffee and their coffee there was really good. If you have mobility issues is a big step to get into the Jacuzzi so just be mindful of that however they do have a chair nearby it, they also have a separate shower in the room. As it is an older hotel there isn't a elevator either there are steps to get up to the rooms but rooms are very comfortable and charming and hotel was quiet we got a great nights sleep and staff were all very friendly and accomodating. It is rumored to be *******, we didn't see anything strange during our stay there other than smelled a vanilla type of tobacco smoke in the hallways...but if searching out unique locations like that might wanna check this place out. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable stay though and not too far outside the Twin Cities so if looking for a more charming quieter lodging option this is a good one for you and their restaurant is also very good. Also the breakfast was great, Their complimentary breakfast we had included an Omelette, Bacon, Fresh Fruit and Toast and Juice and Coffee it was prepared fresh for you at their restaurant and was great. Also there is a coffeeshop attached to the hotel called Freya's Fika Cafe that had some pretty good coffee you can check out while there or on your way home. Overall was a fun time and would absolutely stay there again if traveling thru the area. Five Stars from us due to their overall friendly and helpful hotel staff and was a fun historic hotel .
