Our beautifully appointed guestrooms offer all the comforts of home and feature well-lit workstations and complimentary Wi-Fi. We take pride in being one of Delaware's first "Green Lodging" establishments. The hotel is near many local businesses—including WL Gore, Bank of America, and Siemens—and we are adjacent to Clayton Hall Conference Center, a university-run facility that boasts over 40,000 square feet of meeting space. If it's fun you're looking for, you can test your luck at Delaware Park, experience some of Delaware's "tax-free" shopping at Christiana Mall or take in some culture in the neighboring Brandywine Valley.
