Embracing Hospitality Trends at Ellwanger Estate Bed & Breakfast

/in /by

Welcome to Ellwanger Estate Bed & Breakfast, where we are dedicated to providing our guests with unforgettable experiences that embrace the latest trends in hospitality. From personalized experiences to sustainability initiatives and technological innovations, we strive to exceed your expectations at every turn. Let’s explore how we are addressing these top hospitality trends and what sets us apart.

Personalized Experiences:
We believe that every guest deserves a personalized and memorable experience. Our curated events, such as farm-to-table breakfasts, monthly live jazz on the veranda, solar eclipse viewing, garden tours, and wine and tea tastings (off site), are designed with your preferences in mind. With three acres of woodland and gardens to explore, you’ll find tranquility and beauty around every corner. Our private art collection will captivate the eye and adds intrigue. Whether you’re seeking relaxation or adventure, we tailor our offerings to suit your individual tastes, ensuring that your stay with us is truly unique.

Sustainability:
At Ellwanger Estate, we are committed to sustainability in every aspect of our operations. From repurposing and recycling to organic gardening and composting, we prioritize environmentally friendly practices. Our solar panels harness the power of the sun, while original wood windows and greenhouses enhance energy efficiency. Rain barrels collect water for our gardens, and gravel driveways reduce runoff. By incorporating these sustainable practices, we minimize our environmental impact and create a greener future for generations to come.

Embracing Technology:
While we embrace the charm of a historic estate, we also recognize the importance of modern amenities. Our Tesla car charger and ample cell phone chargers ensure that you stay connected during your stay. Plus, our state-of-the-art massage chair provides ultimate relaxation and comfort. And just in time for the solar eclipse of 2024, we are embracing the technology of high-power binoculars (with filters) to offer a unique and exciting way to experience this celestial event. By blending tradition with technology, we offer the best of both worlds for our guests’ convenience and enjoyment.

Wellness and Health:
Your well-being is our top priority at Ellwanger Estate. From catering to specific meal plans to offering massage services and access to our massage chair, we provide opportunities for relaxation and rejuvenation. Our REC room with table tennis and three acres of walking paths offer plenty of opportunities for physical activity, while our serene gardens provide the perfect backdrop for meditation and birdwatching. With luxurious cotton linens and Prana mattresses, you’ll experience the utmost comfort and restorative sleep. And with our pillow menu, you can customize your sleeping experience to your preferences.

Authentic and Local Experiences:
Immerse yourself in the rich culture and history of our local area with our authentic and local experiences. Join us for monthly jazz jam sessions (not to be confused with Rochester International Jazz Festival), solar eclipse April 8, 2024, or explore our gardens with self guided tours. Just steps away from the Genesee River (boat tour and ROC the riverway festival), Highland Park, and the renowned Lilac Festival, as well as Mount Hope Cemetery (home to Susan B Anthony and Frederick Douglas), there’s always something new to discover right outside our doors.


At Ellwanger Estate Bed & Breakfast, we are dedicated to embracing the latest hospitality trends while staying true to our roots. From personalized experiences to sustainability initiatives and modern amenities, we strive to create an unforgettable stay for each and every guest. We invite you to experience the charm and hospitality of Ellwanger Estate on your next getaway.

Wellness Travelers: Are you struggling to juggle a life in balance?

/in /by

The Ellwanger Estate B&B offers a destination for guests who take an active role in seeking wellness, inspiration and self-improvement for a life in balance.

Wellness has become so top of mind. And this is especially true for the traveler. As the owner of the Ellwanger Estate B&B, as well as a nurse, midwife, preservationist, farmer, and environmentalist, we are paying much more attention to wellness as a lifestyle.

As travelers, you don’t have to give up your healthy habits on the road. We have created room environments conducive to sleep, breakfast offerings and grab and go items that are healthier, and offer everything from Yoga on the lawn, mediation in the Ellwanger Gardens, run/walks on the Genesee Riverway Trail, hiking in Highland Park, to allergy-friendly rooms. Health and wellness is built into the Ellwanger Estate B&B—from in-room air purifiers, PRANA mattresses, to the cleaning products that we use. A good part of wellness is connected to creating comfortable and relaxing spaces that rejuvenate. Lighting, sound, color, the extent to which nature is brought indoors, and ergonomics all come into play. In fact, recharge your Tesla batteries while you are out playing.

The Ellwanger Estate B&B wellness lifestyle is light years ahead of the “Hotel industry”, while adding a novel and superior experience, which is good news for everyone.

Prana, you complete me !

/in /by

Truly, I am complete with Prana.  The Ellwanger Estate B&B has just completed a full upgrade to the finest organic mattresses made of 100% natural rubber Talalay imported from the Netherlands, quilted with wool and Talalay, and clad in silk, wool and cashmere.  This is a rare-find for an affordable Bed & Breakfast accommodation, in Rochester, New York.

Though some guests will no doubt want to spend much of their time exploring Rochester and the Finger Lake region, the Ellwanger Estate Bed and Breakfast, itself makes for no ordinary place to return to for the night or the afternoon rest.

What a difference a bed, a night, and a day will make, all the while sleeping on a cloud. “Prana sleep is amazing sleep”.  Looking forward to your visit.

Prana Mattresses Prove To Be a Life Changer

/in /by

The Ellwanger Estate B&B has “AWAKEN THE ENERGY OF LIFE” with it’s transformation to Prana Mattresses. They have proven to be a life changer!

And we agree (along with our guests) with what “PranaSleep” has to say: The essence of sleep lies in its restorative powers. Sleep can ease away the effects of the day with nightly regeneration, boosting immunity and replenishing every cell. But deep sleep often escapes us. We awake, but unrested.

The spine is the body’s core of strength, health and vitality. Prana is the life energy that flows through the spine, branching into the nervous system and recharging us from head to toe, sole to soul.

The positioning of the spine during sleep is critical to the free flow of prana. PranaSleep® sets are designed to create pure comfort and offer cradling, conforming support. By keeping the spine in its natural position, PranaSleep sets allow for the free flow of life’s energy and provide a deep, restorative night’s sleep.

Sleep Deeply, Live Well. The ancients honored the mysteries of sleep and its mystical powers of dream. Each awakening, a new beginning, a new day, and cause for celebration. Today, experts recommend evening rituals to prepare for sleep, enhancing not just our perception of the nightly experience, but the truly restorative abilities of our bodies at rest.

Sleep Deeply, Live Well, at the Ellwanger Estate B&B!
