We have stayed in this historic and chic B & B several times over the last 4 years, and always look forward to our return visits. The staff is most welcoming and provides individual attention. Start the day with a bountiful, delicious breakfast, beautifully presented. Special dishes were made to accommodate our "lo carb" diets and our daughter and grandson were even invited to the table one morning. We always find that our fellow guests are from interesting and varied backgrounds, and we have frequently lingered over breakfast to learn something new, hear a different perspective or get a hint on a local site or event of interest.

Every aspect of our stay was facilitated by the staff's attention to detail and willingness to make suggestions and anticipate our needs. For us, this was a great find in a neighborhood that we visit frequently.

On the positive side... Nice location, centrally located. Prospect Park is wonderful and the area is relatively safe. Staff were pleasant though somewhat seemingly harried. Food quality was very good.

On the left -to- be- desired side... We would have preferred a modest, continental breakfast to the sumptuous Full-Breakfast Extravaganza. Since breakfast begins at 9.00 a.m., any chance of leaving early before the crowds gather is lost.

We did not appreciate the "political table"- that is, left-wing political discussion actively encouraged by the hostess.

The modest community kitchen is adequate though we would have preferred a refrigerator in our room for privacy. Also, we would have preferred early morning through evening coffee service made and maintained by staff.

Also, the rooms do not lock from the outside. When you exit your room the door does not lock.

Parking is atrocious (certainly not the B&B's fault!)! Block out 10 - 30 minutes (in our experiences) whenever you leave the hotel to find another space upon your return.

This is a wonderful place to stay if work, family or preference leads you to Brooklyn. It is in a beautiful neighborhood, not far from the subway, across from Prospect Park (more beautiful than Central Park). Our room was in the front, but somehow not particularly noisy at night--Brooklyn really quiets down at night. Lovely, old victorian place with some quirks, but no more than was charming. Our hostess was very friendly and helpful; breakfast was excellent, and we enjoyed the opportunity of meeting our fellow guests. We were easily accommodated with an early breakfast set up for us on our last day. A charming bed and breakfast.

We have stayed at Bed & Breakfast on the Park several times. After the first time, it always felt like going to visit old friends. The staff, which is beyond wonderful, are the same people you met before. Sometimes, even the guests are the same. The rooms are beautiful. There is a full kitchen for the use of the guests. The breakfasts are incredible and typically include an original recipe from the endlessly inventive young woman who presides over the kitchen. Allergic to something -- no problem, just tell a staff member and you'll get an alternate treat. Breakfast is served in a beautiful family dining room at one large table encouraging lively conversation with fellow guests. The rates are somewhat higher than other bed and breakfasts in the area -- and it's worth every penny.
