The Pineapple Hill B&B

The last time I was in NY for a GT function, my accommodations were well documented (if not well kept). This time, for GT‘s Annual Wines on the Wing Airline Wine Competition, my lodging was top notch.

I needed to start and end my trip at GT‘s world headquarters in Yardley, PA. Therefore, I needed to stay fairly close.

The Pineapple Hill Bed and Breakfast Inn is located in New Hope, PA, about 15 minutes away from GT‘s offices. I don’t usually stay at B&Bs on business, but GT is not your usual company. The Pineapple Inn is not quite your usual B&B either. The Inn has five rooms, three suites and one apartment suite. Innkeepers make sure that everything is right. All of the rooms are meticulous, attractive and comfortable, decorated with locally obtained antiques and artwork. Each room has a small fireplace and cable television (a must for me). The parlor is open to all and features a fireplace, books, television and games.

From a previous stay, I know the Pineapple Hill B&B Inn serves a wonderful breakfast. Unfortunately for me, due to logistics, I had to be on the road by 3 a.m., but Cookie made sure I had a hearty bagged breakfast. I was extremely grateful for this extra special effort. New Hope is a beautiful town. Whether you like antique shopping, outdoors activities, or quaint (and tasty) dining, you will be happy with your visit. When you are done for the day, stay over at the Pineapple Hill B&B for the perfect ending of that day and beginning of the next.

Andermatt, Switzerland, is This Year’s “It” Ski Destination

There’s no time like snow time — and if your idea of a grand winter escape means swooshing, shredding or schussing down a faraway slope and then relaxing in luxury, Andermatt, Switzerland, is the ideal destination. Located in the Urseren Valley and offering luxury lodging, Michelin-starred dining experiences and plenty of ski options, this corner of the central Andermatt Swiss Alps may just be the perfect winter season address.

Why Japan Is Best Explored by Sea with Princess

Japan is a destination that rewards repeat visits because no two regions — or seasons —  feel quite the same. One moment, you’re wandering through centuries-old geisha districts in Kanazawa. The next, you’re watching neon reflections dance across Tokyo streets long after midnight.
