The Hope and Glory Inn  is an extraordinary Irvington inn. It has been named “Top 100 in the World” twice and “Top 10 in America” an incredible five times! It perennially receives the highest ratings from America’s top three travel guides – Frommer’s, Fodor’s and Moon.

​

The Hope and Glory Inn was a historic (1890) schoolhouse that has graduated into a mega stylish Irvington hotel with six schoolhouse rooms and six quaint garden cottages. Additional Chesapeake Bay accommodations include four Carpenter Gothic vineyard cottages called “tents” (modeled after Oak Bluffs on Martha’s Vineyard). They can be found a bike ride away at their vineyard – The Dog and Oyster.
