Coombs Inn

Fodor's Review:

A combination of neighboring homes and a carriage house, this is an entire complex created with a Victorian flair. Seventeen fireplaces and an ornate oak staircase with lead-glass windows on the landing lend authenticity to this restored 1905 mansion. Of the 23 rooms in the collection, no two guest rooms are alike, but all are appointed with Victorian-era settees, four-poster or sleigh king beds, English chintz curtains, and Oriental rugs on polished hardwood floors. A full breakfast is served in the dining room, and an afternoon social includes tea and cookies. You can stay in the villa and beyond that a renovated carriage house. Popular for weddings and receptions, these may be the most elegant homes in Apalachicola. Free tours are offered in the afternoon if the accommodations are not in use. Pros: clean and comfortable; on-site, friendly owner who's happy to assist with travel tips and suggestions. Cons: be prepared to meet and greet other guests at the inn; if you favor complete privacy, a hotel may suit you better.
