Avon Inn, Hotel in den Vereinigten Staaten

The Avon Inn is a historic hotel in Avon, New York, designed with Greek Revival features including prominent Ionic columns and symmetrical design across its five-section front. The building now contains fourteen boutique hotel rooms, a ballroom capacity for up to 200 guests, a tavern serving meals, and a large wrap-around porch.

The building was constructed in 1840 as a residence for Jonathan H. Gerry, a broom corn farmer, and converted in 1866 into a health center that drew visitors from Maine to Florida. It evolved into a hotel in the early 1900s, suffered significant fire damage in 1979, and underwent restorations before reopening in 2018.

The inn serves as a community gathering place where local residents and visitors come together for celebrations and daily meals. Its tavern and event spaces have made it a social hub where people mark important occasions and connect with one another.

The building is not fully accessible, but offers an elevator and safety features in some rooms for guests with mobility challenges. Visitors should plan to spend time on the wrap-around porch and take advantage of the tavern, which is open daily.

The building housed several technological innovations of its era, including the first central heating system in the Genesee Valley and the first elevator in upstate New York. These achievements made it a pioneer for modern comfort in a rural region.
