Frommer's Highly Recommended

The Barclay House is located on one of the West End's quiet maple-lined streets a block from historic Barclay Square. Built in 1904 by a local developer, this beautiful house can be a destination on its own. All rooms are beautifully furnished in Victorian style; a number of the pieces are family heirlooms. Modern conveniences such as CD players, TV/VCRs, and luxurious bathrooms blend in perfectly. The penthouse offers skylights, a fireplace, and a claw-foot tub; the south room contains a queen-size brass bed and an elegant sitting room. The parlors and dining rooms are perfect for lounging on a rainy afternoon or sipping a glass of complimentary sherry before dinner in the trendy West End. On a summer day, the front porch, with its wooden Adirondack chairs, is a cozy place to read.
