To get away for New Year's weekend, we decide to spend it in Cooperstown. Yes, Cooperstown in the winter. Expedia didn't seem to mention when an accommodation was closed for the season, so just to be safe, I called ahead to the Rose & Thistle to make sure they were open. Patti answered and said they'd be glad to have us. I asked her a few questions about the rooms, and she helped me select a nice one...Nikki's room. (The photos on the web have since been updated)

Upon arrival, we were greeted by Steve and Patti who gave us the lay of the land. They suggested that we go to the HOF that afternoon (it was already close to 3pm) since our tickets would be good for the next day. They told us which restaurant would be open and which ones they liked.

As everyone else has stated, breakfasts were delicious. Tea and cookies were available throughout the day and there were treats in our room as well.

On New Year's Eve, waiting for us in our room after a day of touring was a small bottle of bubbly. That was totally unexpected and very thoughtful.

It felt like a weekend visiting friends. Both Patti and Steve were ex-NYCers and it was a great to hear how they got started in the B&B biz.

FYI the hotel isn't walking distance to the HOF or to the downtown area. But I'm sure on a summer day it would make a nice bike ride.

BTW It was snowing pretty hard when we left on New Year's Day. Steve told us the best route to take home and Patti asked that we call when we get back home. They truly care for their guests!

I can't imagine how busy that town gets during the season, but I highly recommend R&T anytime of the year.

My wife and I stay almost exclusively at B & B's when we travel and this one ranks up there with the best we've stayed in.
Steve and Patti (proprieters) are two of the most friendly people you will ever meet. Starting with Steve's "sit down" to explain Cooperstown's attractions, it's History, and where the best places are to eat (both have extensive experience in the restaurant industry), Steve and Patti go out of there way to make you feel as comfortable and welcome as possible. The home itself is as clean as can be and is tastefully decorated.
Oh, I almost forgot, Steve's breakfast creations are fabulous !
My wife and I strongly recommend the Rose and Thistle if you are making a visit to Cooperstown. We left knowing that we not only had a great time but also made some good friends.

We stayed at the Rose and Thistle and absolutely loved it. The inn keepers (Patti and Steve) are very warm and hospitable. It is very clean and spotless and the breakfast was delicious. All of the rooms were beautifully decorated and the bathrooms were emmaculate. The bed was extremely comfortable also. The price was right and we will stay there again without a doubt.

We stayed at the Rose & Thistle over a weekend and had a great time. The BB is extremely nice and comfortable. Breakfast was exceptional, you can tell Patti and Steve work very hard to make a very creative meal. Highly recommend Rose & Thistle.

We had a wonderful stay at the Rose and Thistle! Patti and Steve were great hosts. Their hospitality and helpfulness helped make our stay very enjoyable. Their home and property is clean, neat, and very well taken care of. The breakfast was delicious too! If we visit Cooperstown again, we will definitely stay at the Rose and Thistle.
