New Hope, Pennsylvania's 1870 Wedgwood Bed & Breakfast Inn, a nationally acclaimed New Hope bed and breakfast inn, is a Wedgwood-blue colored Victorian "Painted Lady" listed on Bucks County Registry of Historic Places.  Wedgwood Inn is spelled Wedgwood, not 'Wedgewood' because Wedgwood Inn is named after the Englishman Josiah Wedgwood who invented the famous Wedgwood blue bone china. The Wedgwood family name does not have a second "e" in its spelling.  Set on 2 private acres of a park-like setting with flower-lined brick walkways leading to two gazebos and a hammock, yet just steps from New Hope's historic and vibrant village and the walking bridge to Lambertville and nearby Princeton, New Jersey.  

Wedgewood Inn offers 3 categories of value-priced accommodations; all include a private bathroom, Queen or King size bed in our 3 diamond / 3 star rated inn, located in the New Hope Historic District - steps from the village square. In addition, our rates also include complimentary Refreshments on arrival, Breakfast, homemade goodies throughout the day, on-site parking, free Wi-Fi, local telephone calls -- and more! We offer Traditional Guest Rooms, Special Amenity Rooms (larger, with fireplaces, porches, etc.) and Luxury Suites (2 person Jacuzzi tubs facing a Fireplace in your bedroom, and more).

Hosts, Carl and Dinie, have offered Wedgwood perfection in lodging services since 1982.  Their warm, friendly and hospitable Inn attracts business and leisure travelers, and is a place  "where executive minds meet" for off-site meetings and retreats.  With its extensive collection of Wedgwood china, award winning gardens, gracious antique furnishings, hand-painted/stenciled guest rooms with free Wi-Fi connections, luxury amenities and personalized attention, the Wedgwood Inn creates the perfect setting for either business or pleasure.

Welcoming refreshments and home baked goodies are served on your arrival and are available to you all day long.  An Afternoon Tea, hosted by your innkeepers, is also served on Saturdays. Breakfast is served daily, in bed, on our expansive dining porch, or on one of our Victorian covered porches.
