Your Stay at Rosemont
From the moment you arrive at Rosemont Inn you will realize you have been transported back to a gentler and grander era. The entry hallway and etched glass front doors will greet and introduce you to the ornately carved hardwoods that abound in this stately 1881 mansion. The Persian carpets, luxurious leather library sofas, working fireplaces, and period American portraiture and landscape oils awake the senses dulled by the world of cell phones, ipods and Blackberrys. The luxuriously appointed guest rooms emphasize the Inns goal which is to provide a level of ambiance and comfort not commonly found. One of the most often heard comments made by our guests is how "beautiful and cozy" Rosemont is.
