Great hotel

We stayed at the Gibson Inn for 2 nights in October and we loved it. We found the Queen room to be of a good size and full of character. We had breakfast and dinner, both of which we found to be excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful.

It is handy for visiting Cape San Blas and St Georges Island.

We will definitely stay at the Gibson Inn again next time we are in Apalachicola.

Love the Gibson

The Gibson Inn is truly a little jewel. My boyfriend and I stayed there for one night and had a fantastic time. If you are looking for some peace and quiet, this is your place. Definitely take advantage of the upstairs veranda. Get a bottle of champagne, and sit in the beautiful weather in the comfy rocking chairs at night.

The staff was overly accomodating for us. They even provided us with champagne glasses.

I would say if you really like big hotel rooms, go for a bigger suite. The standard ones are rather small, but if you just staying for a short time, you should be fine.

Overall, our short trip to Apalachicola was great. Definitely check out the upstairs wine bar which is a block away from the Gibson. There are also a lot of fun little shops around town, but they won't take you long to go to them all.

If you're looking for beaches, St. George Island is beautiful, definitely worth checking out.

So, in closing, go to Apalachicola, stay at the Gibson, and relax!

A perfect place to get away - great staff, comfortable rooms

The Gibson Inn was a wonderful surprise. A few of my staff went for several days to get away. We all loved our rooms-every room different and clean. The staff was personable and very helpful in helping us find sporting activities in the area. The food was exceptional-we ended up having all our meals there. So nice to find that places like this still exist without charging an arm and two legs. Thank you Gison Inn!

Great weekend

Had a great weekend. Staff was great and the building which is almost 100 years old was in tremendous shape, and truely represented a period of old times and southern charm, we will certainly return and request 309 the room haunted by the friendley ghost.

Night in Hell

I had seen the Gibson many times on my way to Indian pass, Florida and decided to surprise a friend with an overnight visit at the Gibson.

I was the one that was surprised, shocked, disappointed and embarassed.

The room we got was barely enough to contain a bed, two chairs and an armoir that was used to house the television. The night was a night of alternate noise of air conditioner running, laundry being done and the worst for last. dogs howling in the adjacent room all night long.

Letting a couple of things slide, at checkout I mentioned the fact of the dogs baying for their masters and was given a curt "Sorry". Then on top of it all no mention was made of the breakfst to be had or the availability of it. Don't think I would have ventured into the dining room anyway.

My advice, just look at the Gibson from the perspective of a person passing through town and just keep going.

Great old place, needs more of a breakfast

I did already above..... What is the store down the street from you ?

It's in or below the Veranda.

Delightful weekend

How delightful to know that there is a place you can go where you can find true Southern hospitality....that place is the Gibson Inn. From our arrival to departure to the magnificent dinner at Nola's to the relaxing evening in the lounge, we truely found a "diamond in the ruff". The Innkeepers, Pamela & Tony, along with their staff, made us feel so comfortable. We can't wait to do it again. Thank you for making us feel so special.

Loved this place

Recently my daughter and I stayed at this historic and charming inn. We couldn't book the same room for our entire stay and had to switch rooms. Both rooms were excellent. We had occasion to dine in the dining room and relax in the bar. The service was wonderful, the conversations stimulating, and the staff so very friendly and accommodating. We spent most days just relaxing on the porch, taking in the views and enjoying the ambiance. In all, this was one of our best vacations ever. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and plan to make the Gibson Inn a regular "home away from home".

One night of hell!

I stayed one horrible night at the Gibson Inn about two years ago. My room was filthy, the bed very uncomfortable and I could hear their washer and dryer all night long. I would never recommend this place to anyone.
