Description of Accommodations

Exquisitely turreted, carved and gabled, the Gingerbread Mansion Inn is a visual masterpiece. One of Northern California's most photographed buildings, this Grand Lady of the Victorian Village also posseses a beautifully restored interior. Enter to explore our 11 fabulous rooms, our gardens, and the wonderful village of Ferndale.

Description of Rooms/Suites

Well known as one of northern California's most photographed inns, the Gingerbread Mansion Inn is a spectacular example of Victorian splendor, both inside and out. The exterior boasts spindlework, turrets and gables, as well as a formal English garden. The inn offers four parlors and eleven romantic guest rooms, all decorated with antiques. Guests are pampered with luxuriously appointed baths (some with his-and-her clawfoot tubs and/or fireplaces), bathrobes, turndown service, morning coffee and a delicious full gourmet breakfast prepared by two full-time chefs!

Amenities

The Gingerbread Mansion Inn was recently awarded a Four Diamond rating by AAA for the ninth straight year. It continues to receive national and international awards and recognition for hospitality service, culinary offerings, and landscaping, including the prestigious "2001 Outstanding Inn of North America" awarded by Conde Naste Johansen's.

Our grandest guest room, the Empire Suite, offers all of this and more: King-size bed, a large bathing area with a marble and glass shower and clawfooted tub in front of a fireplace; a sitting area with fireplace and dining area (for breakfast served in room) complete the other side of the suite. We consider Empire Suite to be Northern California's most opulent room!

Services Offered

Four parlors are set aside for guest use, including lots of books and magazines as well as games and puzzles to play. Afternoon tea is taken in the parlors, and includes tea, coffee, pastries, cake, cookies, confections, petit fours, and fruit with Devonshire cream. In the evening, a turndown service is provided, complete with bedside chocolates. Before breakfast, coffee or tea is available to take to the room.
