Bed and breakfast, boutique hotel comfort, and chef-made meals in downtown Eatonton, GA.
If you’re looking for places to stay that feel personal (and come with breakfast worth waking up for), Dot 2 Dot Inn combines historic charm with real hospitality. Our Antebellum home, built in 1844, has oversized rooms, fireplaces, a well-stocked library, and two acres of gardens right in the heart of town. When it comes to a hotel with breakfast, you shouldn’t have to settle for a granola bar and a tiny cup of coffee.
A Historic Stay in Eatonton, GA, That Feels Like Home
Dot 2 Dot Inn was created by owners who spent years building community through food. After running a catering business in London and later opening Dot 2 Dot Café in Boston (a made from-scratch spot known for art, music, and gathering), a bed and breakfast became the perfect next chapter: business and living under one roof, built around hospitality and a shared table.
Inside, you’ll find the kind of details you can’t fake: tall ceilings, cozy sitting areas, quiet corners for reading, and rooms that actually let you unpack, breathe, and spread out.
Comfortable Rooms, Hospitality, and Relaxation
Each room at Dot 2 Dot Inn has its own personality, generous space, and thoughtful touches. This is not a cookie-cutter boutique hotel. It’s a historic home designed for comfort, conversation, and proper rest.
The Blue Room
If you want to feel like the princess and the pea, then you will enjoy climbing into this four poster bed with its canopy and bed skirt. There are lovely views over the back garden, plenty of closet space, a desk for you to work at, (or not) and a sitting area.
It’s light-filled, airy, and quietly tucked away, ideal for guests who want garden views and a peaceful corner to unwind.
The Red Room
Located to the front of the house with views over the front garden, this room has a king-size bed, a large roll-top work desk, a chaise lounge to recline on and a seating area for you to enjoy that first cup of coffee. The private bathroom is located across the hallway.
It’s a strong choice for guests who appreciate a bit of grandeur with practical space to read, write, or simply stretch out.
The Gold Room
Located on the ground floor with en-suite bathroom, a four poster bed, work desk, seating area, and oversized comfy chair, this is a nice cool spot to rest and enjoy some downtime. Settle in, take a deep breath, relax, we will take good care of you.
For guests who prefer ground-floor access and a private bath, the Gold Room offers comfort, quiet, and that feeling of being well looked after from the moment you arrive.
Chef-Made Breakfast (Made From Scratch, Always)
Our roots are in food. The goal is simple: real breakfast, made from scratch, with care for dietary needs and preferences when possible. Expect thoughtful plates, fresh ingredients, and options that feel healthy without feeling like homework.
