Large comfortable rooms, a night bar for coffee & drinks, a wonderful kitchen that provides a delicious breakfast as well as a dinner menu! Elizabeth the co-owner is a spectacular hostess & extraordinarily kind. It's family friendly, small(15 rooms) & intimate.

I enjoyed my stay at the Whitaker Inn. I came for a job interview, and this was offered as compared to a traditional hotel, and it was a great decision. I loved the delicious food, lamb and salmon were great, crab cake as well. We stayed on Brazil room, with a view to the nature surrounding the hotel. Thank you, Elizabeth, for this nice getaway for my interview. I will come back.

Such a beautiful place to stay! Rooms are gorgeous, love the different countries represented in the decor of each room. Just the overall location is fabulous. A beautiful property with lovely paths through the woods to walk; and close to the Purdue Campus which was so very convenient for our group's visit. The Whittaker's are lovely hosts. I will definitely come stay here again!

What a wonderful place! I fell into the Whittaker Inn as the usual spots were not available. Close to Purdue where I was attending an event. Pam, Elizabeth and Andrew were lovely. Felt right at home. They even accommodated me for dinner when I didn’t have my order in by noon. And I got a yummy to go bagel when I had to leave early. Every detail was thought of. Beautiful grounds too. Easy parking. I’ll be back!Rooms: Very well put together. Theme rooms are very cute and clean. Shower was awesome.Food & drinks: Outstanding crab cakes and risotto!Noteworthy details: Indiana and other themes were fun! Homemade cookies were a nice touch.

Great little boutique hotel in a quiet area not far from campus. My only issue is with all the hardwood floors you hear every step. I would recommend staying on the second floor so you don't have people above you making noise like we did. Also whatever cleaners they use are super strong smelling so if you are sensitive to that like I am it may be a bit overwhelming. The breakfast was great, loved the free snacks and drinks. Will definitely stay here again if I can't get a room at the Union.

We celebrated my husband's birthday here and the Tuscany suite was absolutely stunning! The attention to detail and cleanliness was top notch. From the moment we pulled up, we knew we'd have a great time. The place was comfortable and welcoming. Elizabeth was wonderful and a pleasure to talk to. She made sure we had everything we needed. I enjoyed the boardgames, pool table, and view. Chef Andrew foods were delicious and elevated.! We will definitely be returning and telling our friends about this amazing gem ?Noteworthy details: Customer service was better than any placed we've stayed at.

The Whittaker Inn is an absolute gem of a place. I had the privilege of staying there with a group of FFA kids during state convention. Elizabeth and her team were very accommodating and treated everyone like family. The food was phenomenal for breakfast and everyone enjoyed the cookies. The property sits on a little piece of heaven, surrounded by woods. We even saw a buck in the parking lot when returning late one evening from convention. The rooms are gorgeous, spacious and comfortable. I can't recommend this place enough.

It's not often that you find a property that exceeds your expectations, but our experience was truly amazing. The only thing that topped the very comfortable, spacious, and unique rooms (we stayed in Brazil!), would be the impeccable service that Elizabeth provided during our 3 night stay for our extended family. Look no further if you are looking for a cozy, comfortable, and unique experience in the West Lafayette area!

The hosts go to seemingly endless lengths to give you a wonderful experience overall. Given that, each room at the Inn reflects a particular country, which made our experience to be special and memorable. There are so many thoughtful touches that elevate your stay, from pre-ordering your delicious breakfast so it's ready when you'd like, to the night kitchen with beverages & snacks, to the welcoming common spaces that invite you to relax & enjoy.

We have stayed at the Whittaker Inn twice. It is located in a quiet area a few miles away from downtown Lafayette, Indiana. This family-run inn is clean and well-maintained. Each room has a unique theme based on a country. You will not go hungry during your stay here! The complimentary breakfast is the best hotel breakfast we’ve ever had. The omelets and French toast are our favorites. If you need some afternoon snacks, there are delicious home-made cookies in the lobby. If you decide to eat dinner at the inn, the made-to-order dinner is excellent. The food is fresh and is specially prepared. If you wish to burn off the calories from all that great food, you can take a stroll around the property, play billiards in the recreation room, or walk on the treadmill in the fitness room!The owners, Elizabeth and Andrew, are very hospitable. We are looking forward to our next visit!Rooms: the themed rooms are great! We have been in France and Norway

The Whittaker Inn delivers unbelievable value! It is the perfect combination of high-end hotel service and a quaint bed and breakfast. The location is beautiful and peaceful. The rooms are spacious with internationally (and Indiana) themed rooms with fun décor. From homemade soaps, to a well-stocked night kitchen, to handcrafted door signs, and so many other homey touches, Elizabeth and Andrew provide a very warm and welcoming place to stay! The included breakfast came with an amazing array of choices. The food was delivered at the perfect temperature. The omelet was the best my wife had eaten. The French toast was superb. The homemade jams and banana bread were excellent. I highly recommend staying for dinner. The seasonal menu had amazing choices – but don’t pass up the crab cake – so yummy. The Chef added seasonal peaches to our caprese salad – sooo good. The risotto was true comfort food with fresh ingredients. We can’t wait for our next visit!
