If champagne glass-shaped hot tubs and tiger-striped satin sheets are not what you look for in a "theme" room, then the Thomas Bond House near Independence National Park may be better suited for you. The theme of the rooms at this carefully renovated 18th-century inn are designed to transport guests back to the Federal Period. The 12 guest rooms have been painstakingly restored with furnishings of America's earliest era, giving the hotel a classic colonial charm. Each room is a history lesson with Chippendale period furnishing, oriental rugs and four-poster beds. Rooms are named for the luminaries of the period including the William Penn Room, the John Adams Room, the Benjamin Franklin Room and the Robert Fulton Room (to name just a few). While true to the period, a few contemporary luxuries can be found in each room including a whirlpool bathtub and free Wi-Fi. The hotel offers a complimentary continental breakfast during the week and a full breakfast on weekends, as well as wine and cheese offered nightly. All rooms offer a view of Welcome Park.
