Chimney Hill Estate Inn

Chimney Hill Estate Inn located in historic Lambertville, New Jersey is the absolutely perfect place for a mother-daughter getaway, less than 2 hours’ drive from NYC. After a stressful work week, I knew a wellness weekend at Chimney Hill was exactly the respite that we both needed. This was our second visit and will certainly not be the last. We arrived Friday night and felt like it was a homecoming as soon as we heard the soft music, glimpsed the firelight in the Old Stone Room right off the entrance, and were greeted warmly by Sylvester, who co-owns the property with Marek. Both men are as hands-on as any hosts could be, and their passion for the place, and attention paid to every detail, ensures their guests always have the best experience. After checking in, we went out for a late dinner at Under the Moon, a recommended restaurant (just 9 minutes away), and returned to our cozy room with a mattress that makes you feel like you’re sleeping on clouds. Saturday morning we awoke to a delicious home-cooked breakfast, and along with a small group of other guests, embarked on a “meditation walk” (a mellow hike) led by Marek. It was approximately a mile each way and we found ourselves at the top of a look-out point over the water which was once used by George Washington in the days of the Revolution. We were able to appreciate nature, history, and most importantly each other’s company as we all turned off our cell phones during the walk and only used them to take some glorious photos at the top of the hill. Upon our return to Chimney Hill we were able to use the wonderful spa amenities including a sauna heated to perfection, and then, after a welcoming cold shower, a fabulous Cold Plunge. This was my first time doing hot-cold therapy and I really did not think I’d do it more than once. But it felt so good that we ended up doing three rounds of sauna and cold plunge, with a hot tub/jacuzzi finish. It was so invigorating and next time I am planning on doing four or more rounds. We were then served a healthy light lunch, fantastic soup and salad, before the afternoon’s adventure of a different sort of “therapy” - my daughter and I decided to visit the nearby Angelico winery, family-owned by Otto and Lily Angelico where we sampled one of their signature wines - a wonderful dry red called “The Miracle”. In addition to all the reasons to stay at Chimney Hill Estate, we can certainly say it is perfectly situated to visit the antiques stores and restaurants in town, and the lovely wineries. Marek and Sly are happy to share their personal recommendations with you for a well-rounded weekend that includes activities on the grounds and within a few minutes drive in either direction. We ended Saturday night in the Old Stone Room with relaxing warm herbal tea by the fire, blended with herbs chosen by Sly. Sunday morning after another fantastic breakfast at the Inn, we strolled around the town, and did a bit of shopping, before setting off home feeling rejuvenate

Lovely quiet property, just two minutes from downtown Lambertville up a steep hill. Spacious room with local art, friendly host, and amenities like a sauna and a fire pit. Breakfast is minimal, but the value is still there for the exceptional charm and history.

We stayed here for a quiet weekend away and really enjoyed the beautiful house and grounds. We stayed in the 2nd floor room with a terrace where we enjoyed wine in the evening and coffee in the morning - just what we needed. Room was nice, and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and meticulously prepared with local eggs; very good coffee too. Owners were pleasant and helpful. Location is close to town (5 minute drive) but far enough away that it was quiet.I would stay here again and I would recommend it to anyone looking to visit the Lambertville area.

A wonderful escape. We were in town for the night to see a play at Buck’s County Playhouse. We chose Chimney Hill Estate based on the photos and it’s proximity to Lambertville. The room was elegantly furnished and the bed as comfortable as they come. The grounds were beautiful and serene. We had a very restful night. The breakfast in the morning was fresh and healthy. Yogurt with home made granola, followed by farm fresh eggs over a bed of spinach. Great hang. Would highly recommend.

This is the best by BNB we have visited . It’s BNB with retreat amenities . Sauna , cold plunge , outdoor hot tubs , Zen garden , fire pit , The accommodations are beautiful. This is a place you need to definitely visit .The owners are great also ….

Best B&B we ever stayed at and we been to a lot of different places. The Hosts Marek and Sylvester made you feel at home. The rooms were newly renovated so spectacular we stood in room #4 in the barn The bed was in the loft up a spiral staircase, but when you walked in the room, there was a lovely couch table and two chairs and a table a double sided fireplace and a TV. There was a little area in the other room that had a refrigerator a coffee pot and coffee is supplied by them some wine glasses and utensils. It had a very large shower in the bathroom as well plus a two person Jacuzzi. The outside grounds were beautiful. It had a lovely Zen garden. It had fire pits with chairs all around. It had two Jacuzzis, a cold plunge tub and a sauna plus outdoor showers. It was very peaceful and quiet yet only eight minute walk to town.. I can’t wait for our next visit there. Well worth it highly recommend.

The Inn and the grounds are beautiful. Great location. Very relaxing environment. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast and look forward to returning for a longer stay.

If I were to imagine what I would want in a bed and breakfast this place would be it. The picturesque views on the grounds of the estate were beautiful. The house was filled with old world charm. It felt like we were transported back to a simpler time. Our amazing host was attentive and helpful whenever we needed anything. The sauna and hot tubs were a great addition. We tried the cold plunge therapy and after a few bottles of wine the night before it was exactly what we needed. For a romantic getaway we couldn't have asked for more.

Beautiful, setting for a bed-and-breakfast on the banks of the Delaware river. It has great ambience and many quiet areas to enjoy yourself. The spa is a real treat, and a few good places to walk, including goat hill overlook. Bring your bike to do the Delaware towpath.
