"Good days are here again in Ghent, and so are good nights at the Page House, a delishtful bed-and-breakfast inn located in the heart of the (Ghent) neighborhood" - Southern living Magazine

Ninety years after Herman L. Page built a Georgian Revival in-town mansion as his family home, it was a boarded-up rotting hulk- a neighborhood eyesore in the fashionable Ghent Historic District. In 1990, Stephanie and Ezio DiBelardino bought this condemned building with the dream of restoring it as an elegant urban inn- expressly for your traveling pleasure. Under Ezio's golden hands and a "certified historic rehabilitation" under guidelines established by the Secretary of the Interior for significant historic properties, the eyesore was reborn as the Page House Inn. For their combined efforts, the DiBelardino's received Norfolks 1992 Design award for excellence in renovation design and historic preservation through adaptive reuse.

Today you can enjoy gracious hospitality from knowledgeable innkeepers and a friendly staff in an elegant yet relaxed atmosphere. Parlors and other common areas are exclusively for guests' use. All of the inn's four rooms and two suites come with private baths, telephone lines, TV's, and custom bath amenities. Turn-down service is provided upon request and daily maid service is provided by a competent housekeeping staff.

A continental plus breakfast is served every morning and is included in your rates. This hearty meal includes a selection of premium juices (not from concentrates), fresh baked sourdough bread, fresh baked cream scones, butter, assorted jams, and imported cheese. For those watching their waistlines, a selection of low fat cereals served with 2% milk, yogurt, dried fruits, a basket of fresh fruits (apples, oranges, bananas, etc.), poached or baked fruits or fruit compote (seasonal) are available. Ask about Page House's "Sleepyhead Special" in-room service.

"But if it is Ezio, with his Old World charm, who has golden hands, it is Stephanie who fills the house with its incomparable warmth" 'Country Inns Magazine.' When traveling through Virginia, don't forget the Page House Inn in the heart of the Ghent Historic District of Norfolk.
