    With origins dating to 1757, The Fairfield Inn is one of America's oldest, continuously operated Inns. The Inn offers all the refinement and charm one would expect from a small luxury hotel. Individually decorated bedrooms, spacious private bathrooms, and elegant, tastefully furnished suites and parlors invite you to relax. Serving fine food & spirits to travelers and guests for 249 years.

    Built nineteen years before the Declaration of Independence, The Fairfield Inn was originally the Mansion House of Squire Miller, an original founder of the town. Built in 1757 it is the oldest continuously operated truly authentic Inn in the Gettysburg Area serving travelers for over 250 years! The Mansion House has hosted many famous Americans such as Statesman Patrick Henry, famous for the quote: "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death", Thaddeus Stevens, Generals Robert E. Lee and  J.E.B. Stuart, Baseball Hall of Famer Eddie Plank and The Eisenhower's. When the Battle of Gettysburg was over, the Confederate Army retreated West through Fairfield. General Robert E. Lee and his officers stopped at the Inn to leave wounded soldiers.
