We received check-in instructions via email and I planned to pull up my email on my phone when we arrived. The rural setting of Harpers Ferry resulted in some patchy cell phone reception and we were unable to get cell reception. I suggest future guests print a card copy of the check-in instructions prior to arriving.

My wife & I thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at this uber quaint inn. Super clean. Convenient location. Spacious room. Very peaceful. Superb restaurant right next door. Yummy, professionally prepared breakfast to die for. Friendly staff. We are retired seniors. We stayed here in June 2026 on our way to Gettysburg, Annapolis, Mt. Vernon & DC.

Beautiful room in a beautiful property. It is a very well restored older house maintaining its charm while providing modern amenities. Check in was easy with the instructions for self check in very clear. Parking is free and right in back. The house is in a convenient location within a mile of the Harper's Ferry historical site and with The Barn for evening beverages right behind it. Breakfast was outstanding right at 9am. They even had snacks available all day. A wonderful stay.

Excellent location with lots of easy free parking. Chef made us a delicious, large portion, plated breakfast each morning. She was extremely helpful answering questions about the property, surrounding sites and places to dine for dinner. Bonus- \"The Barn\" is located right next to the Inn and had live entertainment both nights we stayed. I highly recommend this Inn if looking to stay in Harper's Ferry!!

This is an HISTORIC Inn that is very well maintained. The 1st floor common area has sitting rooms that take you back in history. They've decorated rooms like they were in the late 1700's & into the 1800's.

The Innkeepers are super nice. They make you a delicious Inn-cooked breakfast each morning. The frittatas are awesome but everything else is tasty too. Rooms are clean.

We would highly recommend this Inn. If we are back in Harpers Ferry for more overnights, this is the place we will stay.

The property is historic, so it reflects the 240 years since built. If you value historical sites, this is the property for you. The Chef was very kind and thoughtful. Breakfasts were very good. Our bathroom needed updating and under the beds hadn't been dusted in a while. Comfortable and clean beds. Slow internet considering the locale. Tuesday and Wednesday nights not the best for dining options in the area.

The room was very clean, the inn is old but has an updated bathroom. It was up a flight of stairs so mobility issues would be difficult. The breakfast was freshly cooked with only one sitting at 9AM, food was excellent. I was not a big fan of no staff on the premises, everything had to be done with a phone and I am not tech savvy. The location is very convenient to visit historic area of Harper’s Ferry. Parking was not a problem.

Central location, yet quiet. With an early American building, every room is furnished differently with wooden floors and updated bathrooms. Fancy homemade breakfast can’t be beat thanks to chef Megan.
Not overstaffed, but addressing any concern.
Exceptional.

A note about Expedia, which I’ve used many times. Days before my stay, I had to cancel the third night through Expedia. Their system tried to charge me an extra half of the 3-night total for the privilege of canceling the third night. An extra chunk on top of the original total. Crazy.

Light Horse Inn with reason and generosity settled it behind the scenes.

Not really a good reflection on Expedia and their robots.

Overall the stay was ok, not terrible but not great. At no point did we encounter an innkeeper or a housekeeper. Check-in was done on our own. There was a code for the outside door and a key left in the room’s door. This was ok. But not having an innkeeper on site made the stay feel very cold. There was a cook who made breakfast each day strictly at 9am. This person barely spoke, did not welcome us to the Inn, no recommendations on places to go, etc And the food was actually awful! A muffin cut in two was on a plate on each table. 1/2 for each of us only. Then the cook would come out with plates of cold food. The dishes actually smelled awful like they were not being sanitized in a dishwasher. The eggs were cold. The potatoes were diced into tiny bits and mixed with a ton of breadcrumbs. Very strange. They were not good. Tiny fruit cup again with tiny bits of different fruits. Strange plant based sausage patties were horrible. Everything was cold. Coffee was cold. They also gave us dry toast and offered no butter. We literally had to go get a different breakfast on both days. Both days pretty much the same food.

Now the shower head. It was installed in ceiling and could not be adjusted unless you were 6 ft tall. The water was so light and slow I could barely rinse the soap off!

The bed has a sheet and a very thin quilt. There were zero extra blankets and I woke in the night freezing. I had to sleep in a sweatshirt!

Parking easy. Location good. Very quiet.

Our check-in at The Light Horse Inn was easy, the directions were clear and simple. We walked in the entrance where a self serve coffee bar was all set up for us. The Inn was beautifully decorated with period pieces and was spotless. We went up to our room which was very spacious and very comfortable, with a nice large double sink and plenty of towels. Everything was spotless and in its place. A full breakfast is served by the Cheff and there is always coffe available and an ice machine with ice buckets if you bring your own wine to enjoy in your room. We enjoyed going across the parking lot to The Barn where you could get a drink and listen to music. The bartender made me a delicious cranberry mojito and the musicians were playing Irish music which made it hard to sit still. It’s absolutely lovely here and my husband and I look forward to coming back soon.

Wonderful Bed & Breakfast, 1 mile up the hill from the Harpers Ferry historic district. The house itself was charming, I enjoyed exploring it. I absolutely loved my room, with it's old school furnishings and a jetted tub - perfect for soaking after a long day of hiking. Megan, the Chef and manager was terrific. Her breakfasts were delicious, including the omelettes she made with tomatoes from her garden. Plenty of parking - I actually never moved the car until I checked out. I worked from the outdoor seating area a couple of mornings. Be warned it's an uphill walk from the historic district, so folks with mobility challenges will want to drive it, but I enjoyed the slow stroll upwards at the end of each day, with cookies in the kitchen left for guests as an evening treat. I would absolutely stay again.

Stayed at the Light Horse Inn for two nights. Absolutely loved it. You have to manage expectations because this isn't an ultra modern hotel with a restaurant, bar workout facilities, etc. However if you love history, antiques and the charm of a very unique stay, Light Horse Inn is for you. The room was very large and decorated with timeless antiques. They are very responsive via text for any questions, concerns. The chef, I believe her name was Megan made me a to go breakfast because I could not stay for the sit down. I would not hesitate to stay there again, it would be my only choice for Harpers Ferry.

Ate at the Rabbit Hole which was wonderful. Hotel was very accommodating by making us a “to go” Breakfast. Area was very quiet in spite of the fact that there was a bar with music and a fire station next door. Coffee and tea available 24/7. Just a LOVELY stay

This is a beautiful property with interesting history. The room was comfortable. The innkeepers are very gracious and helpful. While not located in the heart of the historic district, it’s a short walk away. Quite honestly, it’s better than being in the heart anyway - more quiet and easier parking. There is a fantastic bar just behind the house, and Snallygasters (best restaurant in town) is next door.

The breakfast was fantastic!!! Dining room was wonderfully laid out with spacious seating for each suite. The egg, cheese, and tater tot casserole was the perfect portion coupled with the sausage links and English muffin. Fresh fruit cup, OJ, and coffee rounded out this dining experience.
The chef/innkeeper, Elizabeth, regaled us with some history of the property, the area, and Civil War as it impacted the region and the property. It truly added to the charm of this inn.
The room was large (the reason why was explained in the breakfast story!), the bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom was great. The remaining room appointments were matched to the period of the inn. I loved this inn and my suite!

Our stay was wonderful. The location is great. We are within walking distance (200 yards) of the Barn and a couple places to grab a bite.

The building is super charming as are the rooms themselves.

The only drawback is that the mattresses (Weber started in two different rooms) are pretty uncomfortable because they are hard. Other than that, we have no complaints.

The rates are good and the overall experience is top notch!

It is our go to place in Harper’s Ferry for the foreseeable future.

A nice place close to Bolivar Heights (not down in Old Town which would be a bit of a walk for many folks).
The property is everything the owners describe and the access and amenities are great. Remember though, it's a old (very old) house (once owned by R.E. Lee's father, -hence the name) and with that should come some expectations.
Creaky floors, stairs (of your room isn't on the main floor), uneven surfaces, and door gaps. Parking is close, free and convenient and in HF that's a HUGE bonus.
If you're looking for a more unique experience while in the area then this is for you. If, on the other hand, you're a \"Marriott\" sort of traveler, this may not be your cup of tea.
