Gorgeous, well kept, mansion. Very clean, we were given a mini tour of the house too. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again

Extremely nice place to stay! Plan on coming back soon. Cinnamon chip pancakes with their breakfast-a must!!!

They make a very delicious breakfast & the accommodations are great!

We will continue to stay at the Spencer House whenever possible. I love the front porch, so relaxing!

The house and room were very clean, and the rooms are private. We especially enjoyed all of the historic details. Parking was a smidge tight for our big truck, but that wasn't a big deal. We would definitely stay again! read less

We stayed in the Spencer suite and were as comfortable as if we were at home. We even had trouble getting out of bed because it was so nice to just sleep and relax in a bed that rivals our own. Every detail was thought through. Breakfast was delicious and filling. I even asked for the recipe for the blueberry casserole. Phenomenal!! We appreciated the nice touches like fresh flowers, candies, bottled water, soda, coffee and tea. We even had great dining recommendations given to us by Steve and he nailed them! We enjoyed our stay to visit the wineries and Presque Isle. This is a great location for doing both. Don’t hesitate to book your stay here. read less

Our room was spacious, comfy and very clean - and the in room air conditioner kept it at a perfect temperature. The whole house has great character and we enjoyed learning some of its past history.

We were visiting from Pittsburgh, PA for a 3 day motorcycle beginner riders course that was being held at nearby Harley Davidson dealership. We’ve never stayed at a place like this and let me tell you we enjoyed our stay there very much. Steve and Lisa were both friendly and made us feel very welcome. From the cleanliness of the entire property, rooms, bathrooms, it is clear they take pride in what they do and the business they run. Our main reason for staying here was because we needed a guarantee of a comfortable stay, no loud noise, riff raff, good night’s sleep, and a good hearty breakfast in preparation of our long mornings/days spent at our training class. Lisa and Steve delivered on their promises and that is exactly what we got! The beds in each of our separate rooms were very comfortable and each room was equipped with TV’s with Roku streaming service. The other houseguests were friendly and seemed like they were enjoying their stay there, as well. My friend and I both successfully passed our riders course and a good part of that success is due to our stay at Steve and Lisa’s establishment. I will definitely be back to visit them soon when I plan on returning for some quiet time and not for business reasons. Spencer House Bed and Breakfast, can’t go wrong and won’t find this kind of comfort and hospitality from a corporate chain-owned establishment, in my opinion. Steve and Lisa treat you like family. read less

Steve and Lisa are welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable and the accommodations they offer are beyond a five star review. The location is central to anywhere in Erie (definitely check out Kellar’s Magic and Comedy club on State Street!) and the breakfasts each morning are delicious. The rooms are clean, the house is beautiful and the cost is very reasonable considering the above and beyond hospitality that they provide. Spencer House will be our go-to home away from home for accommodations each time we road trip to Erie from now on. Highly recommended ! read less

Steve was a wealth of information about the area and things to do. Their beautiful Victorian home is a must see. The rooms were so comfortable. The breakfasts were amazing. Every dish was a home run. And relaxing on the front porch in the evenings were a highlight each evening for us. We are looking forward to our trip next year.

The home is cozy and one of the most beautiful historic homes I have ever seen. My daughters and I stayed in JC's Room on the third floor and were very impressed with everything. Lisa is a great chef as both our breakfasts were delicious. One of my daughters has an egg allergy and Lisa went above and beyond to accommodate her. We are already talking about a return stay with more family members in the fall. read less

From the moment we arrived the house was very impressive as were our hosts, Steve and Lisa. Our stay started with a tour and brief history of the house and the Spencer family. The craftsmanship that went into the house and the furnishings through out were incredible.

Our room was as comfortable as it was impressive with amazing detail and period furnishing in every corner. They certainly don't build them like this anymore!

Steve and Lisa could not have been more hospitable, and breakfast both Saturday and Sunday morning were were delicious. It was the the perfect way to start our day.

If you have the opportunity, we highly recommend you stay with Steve and Lisa at the Spencer House. read less

A wonderful breakfast was the icing on the cake.

We have no hesitation recommending Spencer House to anyone needing a place to stay in Erie. read less
