Our guests are provided lodging in an 1866 Railroad Hotel, built shortly after J. Edgar Thomson pushed the Pennsylvania Railroad over Allegheny Mountain and on to Pittsburgh.

Situated ten miles west of Horseshoe Curve, The Inn is a unique Bed and Breakfast which faces the old PRR main.

From The Inn's front porch you will see eastbounds completing their climb to the Gallitzin Tunnels. At Cresson, westbounds begin their long descent to Johnstown. There is a wide variety of traffic. Intermodal trains, merchandise freights, auto racks, ethanol unit trains, coal drags, double stacks, Amtrak trains, and (UGH!) unit trash trains, roll by regularly. The Inn is 150 feet from the Norfolk Southern tracks. There are more than 75 trains per day, and most of them have helpers.

NOTE: We welcome youngsters who are eight years old or older. The Inn is unable to accommodate pets.
