Where to stay
Old Rittenhouse Inn This Queen Anne mansion has luxe rooms and suites with fireplaces, steam showers and whirlpool tubs. No TVs. Plan to have dinner here at least one night. The $39 two-course meal satisfies, but the $55 five-course feast is splurge-worthy. From $125, including continental breakfast. The hot breakfast is worth the extra $11. See Midwest Living's review.
