The Spotlight on Silver Fountain Inn

Charming New England Escape Just Minutes from the Music

Silver Fountain Inn is a beautifully restored Victorian bed and breakfast in Dover, NH, offering a cozy, elegant alternative to typical hotel stays. With its antique decor, peaceful gardens, and personalized touches like wine or champagne in-room, it’s a tranquil retreat just a short drive from the area’s top entertainment venues.

Why Concert-goers love it

This inn is a solid pick for music lovers wanting a scenic home base after a show. Located about 25 miles from major venues like Casino Ballroom and Ogunquit Playhouse, it’s ideal for those catching concerts along the Maine and New Hampshire coastline. The peaceful setting makes it easy to wind down after a loud night, and with free private parking, getting in and out—even late—is a breeze. The 3:00 PM check-in provides flexibility, though early risers should note the 8:00 AM check-out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a cozy, shared experience with charm
  • Solo travelers wanting a quiet, safe place to decompress post-show
  • Couples on a romantic concert weekend getaway
  • Fans needing recovery time in a serene setting
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want 5-star touches

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no full-service restaurant on site, guests love the coffee shop and the option to order packed lunches—great if you're heading out for a festival or day trip. Daily room service means you can keep it low-key, and breakfast is available to start the day right after a late night.

Nightlife Options

Dover’s downtown is just minutes away, with local pubs, wine bars, and live music spots to keep the vibe going after a show. While there’s no bar on-site, the inn’s relaxing garden and parlor are perfect for a nightcap with friends or a quiet wind-down.

What People Say

Guests love the historic charm, friendly staff, and peaceful ambiance. The cleanliness and attention to detail, especially with in-room amenities like wine or champagne, earn rave reviews. Visitors also appreciate the easy parking and free Wi-Fi.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention the early 8:00 AM check-out as a bit of a buzzkill after a late night, and the absence of a full restaurant or bar may not suit those looking for a more social hotel scene. Still, its charm and comfort often outweigh these minor downsides.

The Bottom Line

Silver Fountain Inn is a peaceful, charming retreat for concert-goers who want comfort, character, and a quiet place to recharge after the show.

very pleasant stay - great...

Liked: Delicious cooked to order bkfts.
Disliked: We were surprised to find a Queen size bed, that needed steps stools to get up into the bed, in an ADA accessible room. There was also a daybed in the room. Had I not been able to climb up , precariously, I would have had to sleep in the daybed -not what I had in mind when I reserved a Queen bed!

Aromatic teas in a unique...

Liked: As I sit here sipping the delicious tea I bought during my stay, I am transported back to the darling tea parlor at this home. WOW is all I can say - everything from the friendly owner and tea parlor/ breakfast connoisseur, to the attention to detail, aromatic teas and delectable breakfast that stuffed us for the whole day, this stay EXCEEDED my expectations in every way. The home is magnificent, cosy and has a good vibration. Totally loved it and will return! Perfect for a girls trip or a romantic couples trip - also for any other occasion or event.
Disliked: That I had to leave - I wish I could live there!

Welcoming hosts at a charming...

Liked: A beautiful Victorian mansion generously and tastefully decorated. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Delicious and varied breakfast. Excellent location, on a quiet street close to both the town center and the highway. We really enjoyed our stay and are grateful for the hospitality we received.
Disliked: The only significant thing to bear in mind is that the stairs to the 3rd floor are rather steep, so if climbing steep stairs is not for you, ask for a room on the first or second floor if possible. Also, our room had a bathroom sink in the room itself, and the shower and toilet in a separate bathroom--most guests won't mind this, but some might.
