We had a wonderful experience at The General Stanton Inn - it was a last minute booking and we were SO happy with our experience! The decor and attention to detail was charming the rooms were beautifully done and the bathroom remodel in our suite was magnificent! The Tavern was amazing, the food delish….the bartenders were great but Christina was on point! The history added to the charm of the Inn! Well done David & Jackie well done! We will certainly be back!!

I was warmly greeted the moment I walked in to check in and was then escorted to my room. The room was immaculate and the bed so comfortable. Not a speck of mold or mildew in the bathroom. Despite the age of the Inn, it was in such nice shape and so well maintained. This Inn is loved by the owners who clearly take pride in it.

Historic inn, South County gem
Lovely historic inn, recently remodeled, with a restaurant and bar. Friendly staff, immaculately clean room. Nice bedding and a firm mattress - yay! Close to South County beaches and Ninigret Park. Highly recommend!

Room was updated nicely and clean with exception to a couple of drawers. Hot water took awhile to come on was only drawback. Check in was a breeze!

We loved the uniqueness of the property and the bedrooms were perfect for our stay. We would have liked a coffee machine in the room or access to one for early morning risers. That being said, Amber came in extra early to provide us breakfast and that was much appreciated. We will definitely be back with more members of our family. Also Music Trivia was a fantastic surprise!

Awesome history!
Such an interesting place to stay. Make sure to talk to the front desk about the history of the land and building. It was a fun history lesson for our children. We did not have an opportunity to stay in a historic room (as we booked last minute), but the newly updated rooms were fresh, clean, and nice.

Strange experience
Very strange hotel. We were rushed away to our room before entering the building. Told nothing about the breakfast (I had to call and even then was told it was "grab and go" so not at all as advertised. Other strangeness was no iron/ironing board and no garbage can in the room, only a small one in the bathroom. Just lacked some basic amenities that all rooms should now have. Small and dark room.
