My wife and I were married at the Olde Mill Inn in August 2023. This was the perfect venue for us to be married at. We received overwhelming feedback from our guests that this was one of the best weddings that they have ever attended. This in part was because of the venue. The Olde Mill Inn has a beautiful property that is easy to find and easy to park. The interior is elegant and the rooms were amazing. The one thing that the guests could not stop talking about was the food. The amount of food that we had at cocktail hour was more than plentiful, and the quality was incredible. The servers during dinner were attentive and on top of things. David, our Maître d', was the highlight of our wedding. He ensured that myself, my wife, her/my family were well taken care of throughout the night. David was thorough in his communication and has strong attention to detail. He made the planning process stress free. We wholeheartedly recommend the Olde Mill Inn for any couples looking for a wedding venue!

I can’t say enough good things about Olde Mill Inn! This venue is perfect if you’re looking to have your wedding ceremony, reception and hotel accommodations in one place. Lindsay was our coordinator and the day went absolutely perfectly! Before the wedding day, planning was easy and thorough. The day of, Lindsay was readily available any time I had a question and she made sure that my bridal party and I had everything we needed wherever we were. I had a ton of decor and the team did a fabulous job of setting it up just the way I wanted it. The reception space looked even better than I could have imagined and the food was excellent! The staff was so professional and every made sure everything was packed and secure in our overnight suite. I highly recommend this venue!

My wife and I recently had our wedding at the Grain House. Our wedding was on the smaller side (less than 75 guests) and we didn't feel as cared for as a larger wedding would be. It ended up raining on the day of our wedding (good luck I'm told!) but we were ok with it since there are so many places inside to take pictures anyway. However, they were extremely overbooked and the Grain house was completely filled with events so there was no where to take pictures there. When we tried to take pictures in the hotel, we were repeatedly told "no" because apparently the larger wedding in the ballroom took precedence over our wedding. Our photographer had to take most of the pictures in our hotel room and just wait until the other events cleared at the Grain House. The real issue I had was with the maître d' who seemed a little annoyed the whole night and just wanted to get us in and out. When we sat down to pick food options with him, prices had gone up since we signed the contract the previous year. He said he was "doing us a favor" by honoring the older price. From that point on, he made sure to tell us just about every time he saw us how much his "suggested" tip was. Surely I would have considered at least getting close to it (it's a comically large number) if we thought the maître d' performed above and beyond, but that was certainly not the case. He did the usual duties that a maître d' does, but pretended as if he was moving heaven and earth for us. The waitstaff had to even picked up some of his slack and was fluffing my wife's dress before she processed for the ceremony. Various parts of the day no one could even find him, it's almost like he was managing the other events as well... Since it was raining and we couldn't have the ceremony at the gazebo, we opted to have it under the tent. The maître d' kept asking my wife and I separately if it could be moved inside, like a kid trying to get a different response out of a parent. Unfortunately for him we're both very much on the same page and persisted that we wanted it under the tent. Annoyed, and well aware that it was a cooler night, he made absolutely no effort to bring out any type of heaters for the guests. Don't think it's just us complaining, the biggest complaint of the night from our guests was the lack of direction from the maître d' outside of the standard wedding flow. For the usual wedding service - champagne after the ceremony, lining the bridal party up for entrances, putting our seating chart signs out, etc; our maître d' was good. For being overly accommodating and thinking on his feet, not so much. The waitstaff on the other hand was absolutely 10/10 and was super attentive! We received SO many compliments on the quality and amount of food so compliments to them and the chef! The only ding on the food was one of the stations for cocktail hour that we added and paid extra for said that it came with sangria which ended up not being served. The front desk at the hotel was a mess, they were telling guests that rooms weren't booked when in fact they were. Most of the wedding party was booked in the same section of the hotel, except for the man of honor who was booked on the complete opposite side of the hotel. The maître d' from another wedding LET HIMSELF IN to our suite the night before our wedding while we were in there and getting ready to turn in for the night. Overall, we were not disappointed that we had our wedding here, it was a wonderful day; but I would be very skeptical to recommend this venue to others to have a small wedding.

I had my wedding there last Thursday and honestly I was really disappointed in a lot of things. First off the maître d' I had seemed not to care about us at all like to the point where one of my guests saw him planning a different wedding while absent for most of mine. I asked him for water and it took him 45 minutes to get it. Meanwhile Gloria was the most magnificent person who worked there. She was so attentive and really seemed to care about us. I really think she deserves a promotion in title and a pay raise because without her I feel as if my wedding would have been an absolute disaster… like how as a maître d' do you allow guests too see the bride before the ceremony an be okay with that like it really devastated my wife also you allowed her father to see her before the first look…once again absolutely terrible… lastly a lot of things that we were told would be done were disregard liked we didn’t matter! Not even the vendor dinners was not passed out even though we paid for it… TERRIBLE experience on one of the most important days of my life..

The Olde Mill Inn in Basking Ridge, NJ is an absolutely incredible venue with a rich history that goes back over 200 years. Originally built in 1768, the inn has undergone several renovations and expansions over the years, yet it still maintains its historic charm and character. The combination of classic architecture and modern amenities makes this venue perfect for any occasion, whether it's a wedding, a business conference, or a family vacation. I had the pleasure of attending my friend's wedding at the Olde Mill Inn, and I can honestly say that it was a magical experience. The outdoor ceremony was held in a beautifully landscaped garden, surrounded by lush greenery and blooming flowers. The reception was held in the grand ballroom, which was elegantly decorated with sparkling chandeliers and luxurious fabrics. The food was absolutely delicious, with a variety of dishes to choose from, including steak, fish, and vegetarian options. The open bar served a wide selection of beer, wine, and cocktails, ensuring that everyone had their favorite drink. The waitstaff was attentive and professional, ensuring that everyone had everything they needed throughout the night. One of the things I loved most about the Olde Mill Inn was the attention to detail. From the beautifully folded napkins to the fresh flowers on every table, every little detail was carefully thought out and executed to perfection. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making sure that every guest felt welcome and comfortable. The rooms at the Olde Mill Inn are also top-notch. They are spacious, clean, and beautifully appointed, with plush bedding and modern amenities like flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. Whether you're in town for a wedding or just looking for a relaxing weekend getaway, the Olde Mill Inn is the perfect place to stay. Overall, I can't recommend the Olde Mill Inn highly enough. From the stunning architecture and beautiful grounds to the delicious food and attentive staff, everything about this venue is top-notch. Whether you're planning a wedding or just looking for a weekend getaway, the Olde Mill Inn is the perfect destination.

We had our wedding here earlier this year, and it was the best venue we could have picked. All the staff we communicated with throughout the touring, booking, and planning stages were so helpful and friendly. You could definitely tell this is a family-run business based on the care we received compared to other venues we looked at. The courtyard was beautiful for first look and cocktail hour pictures, and we loved having an option to go outside throughout the night. Having rooms directly on the premises was perfect and convenient for our older guests (and our rowdy guests) to make sure they could enjoy the celebration and go back to their rooms at any time without needing a ride. There was another wedding that night, but the weddings were so separate, you had no idea until we both met at the Grain House bar later that night! The bar was a great way to end the night with all of our friends that we didn't get to see during the reception. I also can't finish this review without saying how great John was the entire day and months leading up to our wedding. John had a lot more energy than us, but he was on top of absolutely everything throughout the day and made sure we were taken care of. He made sure we and our families ate and drank throughout the night, made sure everything was arranged as we had requested, and had such a great attitude! Lastly, the Olde Mill Inn made sure we had plenty of food throughout the whole night. Our guests had a great time, and we couldn't be happier!

We were at the Old Mill Inn for a wedding in June, 2023. The Inn was very clean, very well decorated, very cozy. The room we stayed in was quite nice, and clean, as well as the bathroom. The wedding was handled beautifully, from the room where the ceremony was, to the cocktail hour area, and the reception. Service was wonderful! The servers were very attentive to our water glasses and wine glasses and came to refill quite often! We had occasion to walk over to the Grain Restaurant across the parking lot to have a drink at the bar. The restaurant was very old and well kept to keep the feel of it's period in time. All in all I would highly recommend the Inn!

It's absolutely beautiful! The grounds are beautifully maintained. Everything is lovingly cared for. The rooms are well appointed with very comfortable beds. The vintage charm is genuine and off the charts. There are many areas, inside and out, for your ideal photo ops. The Grain House Restaurant has delicious American cuisine, some of which is prepared with the abundance of delights growing in their own organic garden. This lovely Inn is well worth your trip from near or far.

I had my wedding here March 2022. Working with The Olde Mill in was nothing short of a wonderful experience! Everyone loved the hotels charm, convenience factors and how great the food was. With many out of town guests attending, this was the perfect place for our wedding. The staff was very professional and helped made our day perfect.

Came here for a wedding. Very quaint and elegant. The room we stayed in was nice, but dated. Had to turn on "lamps" throughout the room at each lamp. Room had a balcony overlooking a courtyard with an outdoor fireplace, had noisy people in the courtyard at 12:15, was told "quiet time is at 1 am". Food at the reception was not so good. London broil was served rare/rare, cold in the middle. Bar service was limited, and old fashioneds made with seltzer water

The Olde Mill Inn is a beautiful inn, built with old country charm and character. The location is perfect for a tour of historic Revolutionary War sights as well as quaint towns. As a wedding venue it is perfect. The service is unmatched. This is a quality experience at an upscale but reasonable cost. We love the total package and highly recommend dinner, a stay....or a large family reunion, wedding, or business gathering. Enjoy!

Thisis a very nice, older hotel. We only stayed for one night however. That was by plan. Just wanted a single night get away. There was not much special about our room, just your run of the mill hotel room with a king size bed. The hotel itself is very pretty. There is a small court yard in the middle that some of the rooms own up into, and others on the higher floors have a balcony over. There is a fire place and small covered seating area in the court yard. There are several common sitting areas around the hotel that all are very nice. And there is a few coffee center that makes your coffee in just a few seconds, black, decades, latte, expresso etc. There is also a continental breakfast buffet that was very nice. Standard but nice. Fruit eggs bacon home fries and I belive a pancake station. Best of all was the front desk clerk, never got his name, but extremely nice and helpful. Definitely would stay there again for a longer time, maybe in one of the suites next time though.

I have mixed feelings about this hotel. There are several reasons why I might stay here again. The hotel has an old-fashioned charm, but the furnishings are outdated and in need of renovation. Perhaps they could maintain the style with newer items. Additionally, the air conditioning is very loud, and the noise from the nearby highway is bothersome. However, I appreciated a few things during my stay. The Christmas decorations were among the best I've seen, truly impressive. Furthermore, the convenience of parking near the rooms was excellent. Lastly, the breakfast, usually a $29 charge elsewhere, was included here and was of excellent quality, complemented by great service throughout the hotel. Ultimately, deciding whether to stay here again would depend on what factors are most important to you.

I have the pleasure of working at the Old Mill Inn as a balloon decor vendor and I have nothing but amazing things to say about the staff, ambience, and service. Everyone from the front desk to the banquet staff is helpful and kind. I look forward to working at the Olde Mill Inn and Grain House often, knowing that the events my clients are hosting there are in the utmost care of their top notch staff.

The Olde Mill Inn made our wedding day everything we'd ever want and more. Especially our amazing Maitre D John, who is literally Superman! He made us feel so comfortable and took care of us like family. He even got us late night pizza at 2am 😂 We got married at the Grain House with the ceremony outside, cocktail hour upstairs inside/out, dinner downstairs, and dancing outside under the tent. Not only is the venue beautiful, but they know what they are doing. This is evident in the fact that every couple gets a Maitre D and the planning process is smooth and professional from start to finish. This is one point that sold us. The other point was the food and the value for your money. The food was great and there are so many options to choose from. Our wedding suite was HUGE, like a whole apartment, and had everything you could ever need. The hotel is pretty small but they have great service and the area is also very nice. I could go on and on about all of the amazing things that the OMI offers! I highly recommend this venue and if possible, get John as your guy ;) One point for improvement: more signs, especially in the parking lot. Because there are two locations for weddings, some of the guests got confused and went to the wrong place! This also applies to our cocktail hour and reception - it was not clear for guests that there were other rooms available to them. Because of this some things were not as visited as they should have been.

If you are thinking about having your wedding at the Olde Mill Inn, do it! We had our ceremony and reception in the ballroom in September and everyone is still raving about it! From the initial tour to our wedding day, Lindsey was super responsive, answered all my questions and made the whole process seamless. After we decided on the Olde Mill Inn, we attended one of the Wedding Shows they hold, and that was a nice way for us to see the space set up and meet some vendors! For our food tasting we opted to bring our fathers along, and it was great decision, they gave us so much food that it was nice to have other opinions on it! It also allowed our dads to feel apart of our planning process! During the food tasting all the maître ’ds walk around and interact with you, immediately David stuck out to us, so we requested to have him as our Maitre’ d. We are so happy we did that as he went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect! At our meeting with him, he was so thorough and answered all our questions, he didn’t rush us to make any decisions and gave us an opinion when we were stuck! During our rehearsal, he went over all our décor and ensured that he understood exactly what we would like! He was so thorough with the rehearsal and he made sure the whole party understood what was needed! Day of, he was there bright and early, checked in on us throughout the day, made sure all our vendors were okay and organized our chaotic crew! He made sure my husband and I ate, were hydrated and was there for all our needs! He set all our decorations up exactly how we envisioned! David continually checked in on all our immediate family members and got them whatever they needed! At the end of the night, he packed all our stuff up and brought it to our suite! He even had the suite cleaned after the guys got ready in it! David truly made our day so special and took so much stress off of us! David has also kept in touch with us post wedding! Now for the food, everything was delicious! We got a sandwich platter during the day for both the bridesmaids and groomsmen to eat and there was so many different options and all were delicious! During cocktail hour, everywhere you looked there was food! They are super conscience of allergies and make sure those with allergies are aware and taken care of! As for dinner, the servings were a nice size and everyone is raving about it! We did a super simple cake from Calandra’s and it was delicious! At the end of the night most of the cocktail hour food, entrees and a cake were put into our suite, which was super thoughtful! The rooms were perfect and setting up a room block was super easy! All in all we are so happy we chose the Olde Mill Inn and would highly recommend them to everyone!

We just had our wedding there about 3 weeks ago, and it’s hard to imagine our wedding without the Olde Mill Inn. Our first meeting with Kate went so smoothly we almost booked it from the parking lot. After looking at a few other venues we knew it had to be OMI (technically we had our wedding at The Grain House). Kate was super nice, helpful, and responsive throughout the process. John Lietz was our maitre’d and that man is a wedding/event machine. John was also very quick to respond and incredibly helpful. The day of our wedding I felt like John was everywhere all at once. Easy contender for wedding MVP. All of our guests enjoyed the accommodations, the food was great, and the breakfast on Monday morning was also tasty (pancake robot!)! There’s a reason they’re often ranked as one of the best places for a wedding in NJ. Would highly recommend!

Was there for a wedding. Was a great ceremony and the cocktail hour was amazing. But the entree i chose could have been better. It was boneless braised short ribs with mashed potatoes and carrots but it just reminded me of pot roast. Not what i was expecting

We had our wedding at the Olde Mill Inn this past weekend and it was absolutely perfect! They thought of every single detail and made sure everything ran smoothly. Reda our maitre d was the BEST! That man made sure we had the night of our lives including chocolate covered strawberries and a bottle of champagne in our suite and made sure to whisk us away to enjoy our cocktail hour food in peace. Our guests raved about the food and how comfortable the rooms were. THANK YOU to the Olde Mill Inn for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

Wedding venue review: Best day of our lives. We truly can't say enough good things about the Olde Mill. If you're lucky enough to work with Lindsay (sales) or David (maitre d'), you are in the best of hands. Both were excellent at communication, responding to emails and calls right away, and took care of every last detail. Planning was a breeze and on the day of, David made sure that not a thing was out of place. The ballroom looked stunning, all of our personal items were set up exactly as we'd hoped, and on our 100 degree wedding day, David was somehow everywhere we needed with an ice cold water. The little things made us feel really special too - David brought us and our parents special plates of the cocktail hour food (since we were so busy talking with our guests), and even had food waiting for us in our hotel room for after the reception, (as we were having too much fun to eat our dinners)! Speaking of - the food was delicious. We received so many compliments from guests and the staff were so friendly and attentive. In terms of the venue, the whole place is beautiful and we LOVED having accommodations for our guests right there with no need for transportation. It also worked out great for guests to grab continental breakfast the next morning too. We are not people who usually write reviews, but we would not have changed a single thing about out wedding day and can't recommend the Olde Mill Inn enough. Bonus - we had our rehearsal dinner at the Grain House, which was also perfect. Wishing we could hit repeat on the whole weekend!

Great lunch spot! If you’re nearby and want that old world charm with some modern cuisine, check this place out. They always have an accommodating menu and turn tables quickly. The restaurant is located across the parking lot from the Inn. Great for a friend/family get together or a business meeting.

Had my baby shower here and everything was perfect! Teresa the event coordinator answered all of my questions and made sure the day went accordingly. The staff the day of was also fantastic and helpful in fulfilling my requests. The room was beautiful and food was great. Everyone had a great time. I am so happy I picked this venue. Also, the pricing was extremely reasonable!

My recent trip to the Grain House restaurant made quite an impression. The atmosphere is rustic and it makes you feel like you've been taken back in time to the colonial era. The food is some of the best I have ever eaten. I had a pork chop that was so tender I didn't even need to use my knife to cut it. The mashed potatoes were so smooth and creamy that they should have won the home cooking award. The calamari app was fried just right. This is one of the best restaurants in the state. Give the place a try and you will be sure to agree. See you there soon!

Great place, friendly staff, wonderful service. Rented a conference room for a social get-together with friends and we couldn't be happier. The whole process was painless and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back.

We’ve just completed our 2 night stay here at the Old Mill Inn and couldn’t be happier. We arrived early for a destination wedding and found this location so accommodating and pleasant from the wedding event staff attending our every need as well as the daily services. The inn is charming, clean and every staff member clearly takes great pride in the work and services they provide. We would happily return.

We got married at the Olde Mill Inn this past weekend. It was amazing! David was our Maitre d' and he made the day run smoothly and was a great communicator. He helped throughout the whole process - from planning to the rehearsal to the wedding day. He was always checking in/answering our questions right away. We are still getting rave reviews from guests--everything from the food to the cocktails to how everything flowed. It's also very accessible--guests can book a room to stay overnight right at the venue which is a unique feature. Our guests appreciated how easy everything was for them. If you want to have a wedding that feels special and personalized definitely get married at the Olde Mill Inn. It's not like a typical wedding factory where they move you in and out. They make you feel really special and make it an event to remember.

Favorite place to stay when I visit NJ for work. The hotel is centrally located so it’s easy for me to get anywhere within NJ. The hotel has a charm that can’t be matched by the new hotels. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and always clean. Staff is extremely accommodating and friendly. Best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had.

The breakfast is complimentary, but there's no meat, vegetables, or gravy, unlike Best Western or other hotels. You have to peel the hard-boiled eggs. The pastries and bread are slightly better than those at most hotels, though, and there is Harney & Sons tea and raspberries. There is a hallway bathroom in each wing, which makes it easy to do your business. The location is in the middle of nowhere right next to a highway, so at times, the courtyard smells like diesel exhaust. Overall, it was fine, and the hallways smelled like a library with old books, but the rooms worked well, with no weird smells from the AC unit. The hot water worked efficiently and got hot enough to clean a dirty body. The real spring mattresses are firm, and we slept without developing back pain or getting too hot or cold. It is a good deal when all the more conveniently located 2-3 star hotels are either booked or cost twice as much. Plus, most comparably priced hotels do not even have a balcony! People fly in from the Midwest and hire a DJ to play really loud music in the ballroom. You will hear their wedding officiant make bad jokes, or propose solemn vows, without having to be related to or friends with anyone! I am not sure how easy it is to crash these events; we only brought gym clothes. The parties may go until 11pm-12am during weekends and Fridays. The windows are single pane and won't block the noise very well, but if you can sleep to noticeable dance music, like us, it is great! Most rooms have two open-able windows and a balcony, maybe 3 Sq meters, for people-watching.

We were there for a wedding, stayed 2 nights. The room was clean and nicely supplied, and the wedding was in the courtyard, followed by cocktail hour and reception. High level of detail and professionalism. Would recommend.

Went to a wedding here. Nice venue. Dance floor is medium size for party 150-180. Food pacing was little behind . 7-12 dinner came after 10pm dessert after 11/1115. Was nice area for cocktails, but like most places needed more rest area or chairs for people. When pulled up no valet ... was bit off. Nice room for reception. Plenty area for 16-18 tables, plus dj, plus photo area . Unfortunately they ran out of rooms when called 4 weeks before the wedding .

Remember to use HoteITully.ᴄᴏm when booking any resort. This web site will compare hundreds of booking web sites and usually will have rates much cheaper than others! Thank me later on! This place is the best rated in the area. I've been coming here for a long time. If you decide to stay here you definitely will love it I'm sure! The hotel has a charm that can’t be matched by the new hotels. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and always clean. Staff is extremely accommodating and friendly. Best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had.

The Olde Mill Inn was the PERFECT wedding venue for us! It is a cozy space and has everything you need for a seamless wedding. We worked closely with Lindsay, who gave us the first tour of the entire venue and helped us book our contract. She was incredibly kind and was always there to answer any and all questions that we had. Closer to the wedding day, we worked with our Maître D, David, who was outstanding! David took the time to go over every single detail of our wedding day and made sure that the day ran smoothly and that all of our ideas came to life. Not only was he extremely helpful to my husband and I, but he also made sure that all of our family, friends and wedding vendors were happy and comfortable throughout the day. He was so patient with us and we truly appreciate all of his guidance and expertise. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that is cozy, has DELICIOUS food and wonderful staff members: this is the place for you!

Very nice place. Very beautiful architecture. Has that old inn feel to it. We attended a wedding and stayed over. Was clean, and rooms were nice. They have a restaurant across the parking lot that was, interesting. The food at the wedding was ok not anything to write home about.

My husband and I got married in the Grain House and it could not have been more perfect. The atmosphere was so cozy, warm, and inviting. It was a dream! Our maitre'd David was absolutely amazing; he made our night flawless and kept everyone so happy. We are still in awe of that night and we highly recommend Olde Mill Inn to anyone! Hotel is right on premise so there is no shuttle needed and its convenience mixed in with beauty. The Grain House now features a picture wall that our guests loved and used. The fireplaces within the Grain House added a touch of romantic flair and the decor was just what we wanted. Even the after party at the bar within the restaurant was awesome, our bartender was funny and served everyone with ease. Our suite at the hotel was so lovely. We didn't worry once during this day and it is all thanks to David and the staff at the Olde Mill Inn.

A wonderful venue with first-class service. I am remiss in writing this review as we had our event in June. I hosted a small bridal brunch for my daughter and everyone was so helpful and accommodating. Betz the manager was so helpful setting things up and making the arrangements for time and numbers. The brunch options were wonderful with breakfast, lunch and lighter choices that everyone raved about. Our waitstaff were so friendly and patient with 16 women deciding what they wanted to eat, setting up the table favors and opening gifts. We also stayed at the hotel the night prior- I am so glad we did. We ate dinner in the pub and the team helped our larger party with a cute semi-private table area. Our waiter was superb. The rooms are tasteful and spacious, we had a cute little balcony and could watch the festivities for a wedding that was going on in the courtyard. We were generously allowed a late check-out and can't wait to stay here again and enjoy the hotel.

My brother had his wedding here last week and it was the most BEAUTIFUL wedding I've EVER seen! 😍 the entire venue was Wonderful from the Rooms to the restaurant. Honestly the most hospitable staff I've experienced in a very very long time! They went out of their way to make sure we were accommodated since all the 2 bed rooms were booked (due to 2 weddings taking place). They actually brought us the biggest cot I've ever seen for the kids to sleep on. I could keeping writing all the great things about this place! I will definitely be back!
