Wonderful Hosts

We had a great experience with wonderful hosts. We went for an early morning event, and to our surprise, they were up very early ready to serve us. We had expected to quietly slip out and were met with more than we could have expected. They went above and beyond in every regard. The property is interesting and historic, but comfortable. This is the go to place in Salisbury.

Absolutely wonderful

The Gillis Grier B and B was incredible. A stay here is an immersion in the Gilded Age. The 1885 house is extremely well preserved yet unobtrusively updated to provide maximum comfort and easy access to modern necessities like WiFi. I had to leave early in the morning for a race, but on our way home my wife could hardly stop raving about the breakfast she was served. Our hosts Rhonda and Luis made us feel at home, but better. They clearly enjoy being hosts, and we feel like we've made friends. This is the place to stay in Salisbury.

I stayed in the B&B for convenience of location and really enjoyed my stay! The owners look, Luis and Ronda were very personable and I enjoyed hearing stories about the home and its history. I was visiting my daughter who attends Salisbury university and I plan to stay at the B&B again on my next visit.

A step back in time! This bed-and-breakfast is a Victorian home in a historic preservation area in Salisbury Md close to historic churches and downtown. The home is well preserved and taken care of with Victorian decor and contents as well as modern amenities. The beautiful stained glass windows and lighting and crystal chandeliers are everywhere. The antique wood railings, trim and even the finely detailed parquet floors took me back to another time in history, to how the “well-heeled” families lived in the late 1800’s in a small town surrounded by farms. The location is very close to amenities and a short drive to Ocean City, Maryland as well as Assateague Island. Also a half hour drive to Windmill Creek Winery another restored 1800 home near Berlin which is a historic winery and a fun place to visit if you want a break from the boardwalk vibe. The host couple at Gillis B and B were very sweet and attentive to all details. Breakfast was delightful and also a great assortment of teas and coffee. The price was much more affordable than staying in a decent “chain hotel” in the area from Salisbury to Ocean City. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to have this kind of experience. Added note: the “square” winding staircase was like nothing I have ever seen!

Victorian Paradise

Our hosts Rhonda and Luis are so welcoming, so knowledgeable, and attentive to our every need. The home is beautifully decorated to period, our accommodations as lovely as the next room in this beautiful estate. Best of all, we had delicious " from scratch" breakfasts which we already miss! The setting and the neighborhood bring you back at least 100 years and is a wonderful place to take a walk after dinner. Don't miss this gem!

Absolute GEM of a B&B & Amazing Friendly Owners!

This was by far the best experience I have ever had a B&B. Luis and Rhonda went above and beyond to ensure we were accommodated in every facet imaginable. This place alone is worth it for the trip down memory lane with the history of the house. My daughter absolutely loved the pink room. We had the oak room and it was very adequate for our needs. Breakfast is absolutely fantastic. I had the eggs benedict and Luis made sure we had enough food for early morning tournament times. The inn space has plenty of parking for tenants as well and the house has a phenomenal security system, with electronic locks on every suite door. The owners truly care about customers as we had engaging conversations about life and our careers. I welcome you to read the Salisbury hotel reviews around the area with constant compliants about noise, cleanliness issues, and loitering on hotel properties. I would highly recommend staying here for an assured uninterrupted good nights sleep knowing your family is safe and your property is safe. Plus the fact of knowing the room & furnishings are adequately cleaned during and after each guest visit. The complimentary fridge with drinks was awesome for on the go waters while we made in between stops or when the tournament day was over. They really made my kids feel welcome as well. We are slated to play in another tournament in the Fall and we will be back to stay for sure. The only 4 star mention was the mattress because I missed mine at home.
