Best Bed and Breakfast

Adams House

When someone tells you a house is a Colonial Revival building, the response is either a distinct glazing over of the eyes or the kind of nerdy architecture enthusiasm weekend Restoration-Hardware customers can only hope to possess. Nestled in Hyde Park - peppered with pier-and-beam neighbors - the Adams House Bed and Breakfast is a good representative of its turn-of-the-century style: stately symmetrical-ity, rational proportions, a rustic/refined construction, and, from our readers' point of view, a darned sweet place to rest one's head.
