The Ellwanger Estate: Bed & Breakfast
An Urban Retreat
The last three Jazz Music Salons for the year are:
Saturday October 5, November 2, and December 7, 2024 from 2-4 PM. Performance are in the Great Room and are a very special treat for my Ellwanger Guests!
Also, in partnership with the Memorial Art Gallery, we are proud to announce that 5% of all reservations will be donated to support their efforts in fostering art and culture in our community.
More than a bed, more than a breakfast, it is the Rochester Experience.
Expect the Best: From the moment you walk into the Ellwanger Estate, you’ll know you’re not in any ordinary bed and breakfast.
Soft lighting illuminates the smartly placed decor. Natural woodwork brings added warmth to the immaculate interior space. A fresh outdoor aroma coupled with streaks of sunlight gently passes through the skylights. The Ellwanger Estate is an oasis where you’ll actually enjoy spending time in your room as well as discovering the magnificent grounds. We offer FOUR guest rooms, a wraparound veranda, 3 acres of gardens, grassy knolls, woodlands, greenhouses, a carriage house with the “Grand Hotel (Chicken) Coop”, and a smoke-free and green environment, utilizing eco-friendly practices.
NEW! Extended stays. Are you traveling for business? Solo? We have the perfect Rochester, NY getaway! Rent a room…Get a mansion! The B&B is a peaceful retreat with stunning garden views, original artwork, and within walking distance of downtown, College Town, and the University of Rochester. Please call for availability and rates. It’s the first step towards lasting memories!
We are located in the heart of the Mount Hope/ Highland Historic District, one block from the Genesee River. It is within easy walking distance to Highland Park, the site of the world famous Lilac Festival, Mt Hope Cemetery, University of Rochester, College Town, and Swiftwater Brewery. Downtown and its major businesses are five minutes away. Within a 10 minute radius is the cultural district, and the Susan B Anthony House. There is so much to attract the Ellwanger guest and now there is one more: a TESLA charger. Our exceptional amenities make this the ideal home away for both leisure and business travelers.
