Gingko Gardens Bed and Breakfast is your quiet retreat in this wonderful, busy city. It offers easy access to the best of Philadelphia.

Ginkgo Gardens is located just a few blocks from the bridge to the University of Pennsylvania, the Schuylkill River path to the Art Museum and Fairmont park, and a 10 minute walk from Rittenhouse Square. The Convention Center and Historic Area are about a mile and half away. Public transportation is very convenient.

The residence is a unique accommodation. Two houses, vintage 1890's, were combined to create a spacious town home. The inviting living room’s french doors open to a large garden. There is a grand piano. You may hear (and play) chamber music during your visit.

There are two second floor guest rooms.

The Garden Room has a queen bed and en suite bath. Large windows overlook the lush, large garden where a well traveled ginkgo tree has taken root.

The Green Room has a double bed and private bath, and a view of the ginkgo tree in front of the residence.

You will be served a continental breakfast - juice, coffee, tea, cereal, fruit, and assorted breads accompanied by Bob Allen's award winning Artisan Jams. If you're here on Sunday morning, waffles are the standard fare. Let us know any food preferences or allergies ahead of time and we'll make sure we have what you need.

There is a cat in residence, named Lopito -- also known as Loopy. He'll welcome you here by rolling on your feet. So if you are really allergic, he'll be a problem.

Ginkgo Gardens is a non-smoking residence.
