Fodor's Expert Review The Oxford House

It's the only true bed-and-breakfast in Hamilton, and one imagines that even if this elegant beige two-story town house, just two blocks from the capital's shops, ferries, and buses had competition, it would still be the best. The 1938 inn is family owned and operated, and each room is individually decorated with pretty matching fabrics and antique and reproduction furniture. Polished cedar floors, a fireplace, and handsome Chippendale chairs lend warmth to the breakfast room, where you can sample scones each morning.
