What makes this property unique
Nestled in the heart of Olean’s historic district, The Old Library Inn is a beautifully restored Victorian mansion built in 1895. Once home to a local oil producer and later a community physician, the residence was transformed into Olean’s first bed and breakfast in 1988. Today, the inn offers seven uniquely themed guest suites, each reflecting the charm of a bygone era with rich woodwork, stained glass windows, and antique furnishings. Guests can enjoy modern comforts alongside timeless elegance, all within walking distance of downtown shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions. Whether you're here for a romantic getaway, a special celebration, or a relaxing retreat, The Old Library Inn provides an unforgettable stay in one of Western New York’s most enchanting settings.
