The Castle at Skylands Manor

This is a beautiful setting, but they should skip the b&b and stick with special events hosting. The innkeeper was inattentive and made no attempt to make us feel welcome or accommodated. When booking a "bed and breakfast" guests expect a hot breakfast, not stale Danish and bagels with lukewarm tea. Ran the water in our bathroom for 30 minutes before we got even warm water - and that only room temperature, not hot enough for a shower. Then we were unable to turn the tap off completely and it dripped all night. The innkeeper was disinterested when we told her the next morning. Left as quickly as we could in the morning to have breakfast elsewhere.

The property is a 100 yr old estate.I didn’t expect a 2022 hotel setting. I enjoy the castle and it history. I was mildly disappointed in the continental breakfast though.

Was looking for something "out of the ordinary" for our trip, and found this was just a little off our route, BUT WELL WORTH THE DRIVE! We LOVE this most BEAUTIFUL mansion! Took lot of pictures! Just wish the elevator had been working - I have bad knees, and had to walk up 48 steps to our room! Still, I'd recommend this beautiful place to friends going anywhere near it!

The setting is so serene ! I was relaxed and very comfortable my entire stay! Kelley the innkeeper is great!

I love the mention

The mattress and pillows where very uncomfortable.

Beautiful property with awful service. Hostile wedding parties blocking entrance to manor. Literally no one on the property after 5pm to help with anything despite text messages and calls for help. 5 guests were locked out at 6pm and we had to wait for someone's boyfriend to come open the main door! No more water out front once it ran out of the small container, no food, no service! Had to get water from the sink! Inn keeper said she'd text back about my order after i finally had to call her and never heard from her again. They don't tell you that parking is a long walk away and the property is not easy to navigate. There were no drapes in the room so I woke up at the crack of dawn before 5am. No pets allowed but barking dog in the next hallway. No closet, hangers, drawers, or nightstand and no outlet near the bed for charging your phone. Shared bathroom which wasn't a big deal but this place is basically a glorified dormitory. Save yourself the hassle, visit for the beautiful property, common building rooms, then leave and get a real hotel. Worst customer service I've ever had. What a shame!

This is a very charming place to stay and I enjoyed it. My only issue was personal for me being a cancer patient I was unaware that parking was a distance and there is no elevator. Luckily there were chairs in the hall so I took a flight with my things and then sat to get my wind back.

Amazing
