“Wonderful we can't rave enough. A true jem.”

Reviewed 14 June 2013 NEW via mobile

My parents and I traveled to South Bend to celebrate my mom's 87th birthday. We fortunately stayed at the Oliver Inn. It was so beautiful, historic and comfortable. The food was great and our hosts Alice and Tom were so helpful and welcoming. They even let my Dad bring his little dog who goes every where with him. We all... More

“Wonderful Weekend”

Reviewed 2 June 2013

We visited South Bend for the Notre Dame Reunion. While deciding on a place to stay, we chose The Oliver Inn based on the great reviews on TripAdvisor and its close proximity to campus (a short drive). Once we entered the Inn, we could certainly understand why other travellers love to stay here. Not only is the Inn beautiful and... More

“Oliver House Warm & Inviting”

Reviewed 24 April 2013

We stayed at the Oliver House for four nights while we were in South Bend for an event at Notre Dame. While it was tempting to say closer to campus, we were attracted to this historic house and figured we'd check it out. We love inns and B&Bs. Tom and Alice did not disappoint. Our stay was delightful. Our hosts... More

“A Wonderful Weekend”

Reviewed 21 April 2013

Our usual hotel options were booked (it was blue-gold football weekend) so we read the reviews on the Oliver Inn and decided to take a chance. We are sure glad we did and will be back. Tom and Alice were perfect hosts, helpful in every way. Our room and the common rooms were historic, elegant, very clean and comfortable. We... More

“Perfect Romantic Getaway”

Reviewed 11 April 2013

This is a perfect romantic getaway, so perfect we have been 3x!!! The James Oliver Room is probably our favorite as it is the largest room with a double whirlpool tub! The coach house is perfect for families with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms! Breakfast by Alice is second to none with candlelight and a piano playing. Tom and Alice... More

“Wonderful, Fantastic, Relaxing”

Reviewed 25 March 2013

I reserved a room at the Inn for my Dad, who is an Oliver track collector, this past weekend. He couldn't say enough good about his stay. The Inn keepers were extremely accommodating when booking the room and during my Dad's visit. My Dad also said that the food was great, the Inn was clean, the company was great, and... More

“Perfect get-away”

Reviewed 3 March 2013

We stayed in the Oliver Room...so relaxing! There is a gas fireplace, heated tile in the bathroom, heated towel racks, 2 person jacuzzi, and the bed is very, very comfortable. Sleeping in my own bed tonight will be disappointing. Alice makes a delicious breakfast, and there is live piano music during breakfast. We will definitely be staying here again, hopefully... More

“A gentle moment in a busy world”

Reviewed 12 February 2013

The Oliver Inn is a treasure - a treasure in terms of history, in terms of the genuine enthusiasm the owners share for their stewardship of such a remarkable piece of history, and a treasure in terms of the extraordinary food! I will not wait for a business trip to take me back there.
