Our stay was five stars from start to finish! Not only was the home stunningly beautiful, steeped in rich history, our gracious host, Michael was a delight! His depth of knowledge of the area and its unique background was impressive. Being that I’m a history fantastic, my thirst for information was certainly quenched. We stayed in the Ellen Room- it was perfection. Every little detail was considered. The breakfast in the morning was amazing - a fine dining experience with a comfortable, low-key vibe. We will certainly be back. If you get an opportunity to visit this iconic location in Jim Thorpe, I highly recommend it. You won’t regret it!

Usually when I go for a Bed and Breakfast, I'm thinking more about the bed than the breakfast, so this place was a total revelation. The "bed" portion was certainly great, and Michael and Jeffrey are consummate hosts in all respects, but the breakfast is what sets the place apart. Everything is cooked fresh from the morning haul from local farms and butchers, so each dish is both a culinary delight and an education about surrounding area. You'll learn about the best things to do in Jim Thorpe, the best places to hike, and the most interesting stories about the town, not to mention, all under the roof of one of the town's many historic houses.

All we could have hoped for in historic Jim Thorpe - breakfast by a master chef, a millionaire's home made into a brilliant BnB, an attentive host (kudos, Michael!), a central location to all you want to do, parking on premises, spacious rooms-- really all you could ask for.

Words simply cannot express how much we loved our stay at the Dolon House. This impeccably decorated inn is located on the main street of historic Jim Thorpe. Easy walking to everywhere. Michael and Jeffri are so helpful - they had great suggestions for touring and eating!! The breakfasts were phenomenal - three courses of deliciousness. Our absolute favorite.

We found our time at the Dolon House to be an outstanding experience. From the delectable breakfasts to the very interting furnishings and the informative and knowledgeable owners, our three day anniversary get away was quite memorable.

Absolutely fabulous small Inn by the main street of historic Jim Thorpe. Full of history, and full of decorative memorabilia and art. The breakfasts are something different - three courses plus extras. Incredible! We just love the place!

The house is beautiful and instantly transports you back in time. The house is impeccably restored and yet comfortable with all the modern amenities you'd expect. The beds are comfortable, and the rooms are spacious. The collection of antiques and artwork just add to the experience. All this is yet outdone by the fabulous 3 course breakfast that is served each morning by you innkeepers, Jeffri and Michael. We looked forward to the dining experience each morning and were never disappointed! Jeffri and Michael were always ready to make dinner recommendations or suggest things to see in the Jim Thorpe area. We are already planning a return trip!

We recently stayed at the DOLON HOUSE BED & BREAKFAST. It was a fantastic experience. We really loved the Dolon House, and the breakfast was exceptional. This was our first stay; it won’t be our last. We didn’t even miss not having a television in the room. The whole place is beautiful and again it was a great experience.
