We stayed here for one night recently and can say that it was a great night in New Hope. Porches isn't kept up like a 5-star resort and it should never be that way. The pleasure of staying here is that things are a little unkept but that adds to the mystery and fun. The room (#3, I think) was... more

I guess you would be enthralled with this place if you had never stayed at a B&B before. Its got "charm" but the other reviewer who detailed the cluttered and dark public spaces had it right. The threadbare towels which smelled totally musty once wet were a turn off. Sitting outside for breakfast is a nice idea until you see... more

New Hope, Pennsylvania, for me, has been a place full of fond memories for most of my life. Staying at "Porches on the Towpath" B&B for two nights just added some more joy to those memories. My wife and I needed to take a couple days off and after looking at several possible choices in the area decided on "Porches",... more

I stayed one night at Porches after reading all the favorable reviews on Tripadvisor and checking the Porches website. What a huge mistake! As soon as I pulled into the parking lot and saw the place, I went "uh-oh..." I'm still wondering how it could be the same place everyone said was first rate... The basic house could probably be... more

Porches! What can I say? My brother, sister-in-law and I wanted to have a little get-away from hot hot Florida. We had friends in Vero Beach who recommended Porches to us. Well, thank goodness we took their advice and booked two rooms at the Inn. I had the "new" room with all of the blueprints of sailboats...gorgeous renovation work...beautiful new... more

My first overnight experience in New Hope and it was wonderful. From check-in to check-out, I never went near my vehicle; it's all within walking distance from Porches. From the elegance of the room (No. 4), to the delicous breakfasts, to John and Chrissy making one feel very welcome and cared for, it was one of the best experiences I've... more

We just got back from our wonderful stay at Porches on the Towpath and as usual, it exceeded our expectations. John and Crissy work so hard to make everything just right and are so helpful and friendly without being overly obtrusive. We having been coming to Porches for several years now and wouldn't go anywhere else in New Hope. We... more

My husband and I love Bucks County and when we realized we only had one night for a first anniversary getaway, our immediate choice was to go to Lambertville and New Hope. This is the first time we stayed at Porches and we loved it. The fact that everything was within walking distance, but we had peace and quiet in... more

I have to agree with the reviews posted in July and May, the first which mentioned the word "raggedy", the second speaking of the need for "some TLC." This is potentially a great place, but there is far too much junk and clutter. The garden is being swallowed up by vines and other plants and really needs a good sort... more
