Delaware Hotel Review

This artfully restored 1886 hotel is one of the best examples of high Victorian architecture in the area, so it's no surprise that it's listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The columned lobby has brass fixtures, crystal chandeliers, and rich oak paneling, although much of the beauty is hidden behind a rambling antique and knick-knack store. The comfortable rooms have graceful touches like lace curtains and antique heirloom quilts.
