Dear Friends,
#InThisTogether is an appropriate tagline for the current times. As we face growing anxiety and concern, we understand safety and security for family and loved ones is a priority so travel and leisure is secondary. For those who feel a visit to New Bern is not possible in the upcoming weeks, we invite you to contact us for changing your reservation to a future date or converting your reservation to a gift certificate which is valid for up to 12 months.
For those who must travel during this time, rest assured here at the Inn we are following all recommended state health and government guidelines. Additional sanitation procedures have been implemented. The unique duplex architecture of the Inn with the four separate hallways provides more than the recommended six feet distancing for guests. Also, having a commercial kitchen allows us to provide additional meals if necessary limiting guest exposure outside the Inn.
The duration of this situation is still unknown, but we are confident New Bern will weather this ‘storm’ as she has many others. Remember, once you are ready to explore historic New Bern, the Benjamin Ellis House will be ready to welcome you as usual. Together we will get through this and together we will become stronger.
All the best to everyone,
Gretchen & Tracy
PS- wash your hands!
