Buffalo Rising would like to welcome Buffalo's newest inn to The Elmwood Village. The Honu House is located on the corner of Elmwood Avenue and St. James Place in a home that was built in 1891. Currently the inn is still being renovated, but before you know it, visitors to WNY will have the opportunity to stay in one of the most pleasant accomodations in the city. The interior is in the process of being modernized to offer guests as many comforts as possible including a mini theater in the main common room, laundry facilities, and wireless internet.

The inn will feature two spacious guest rooms complete with hot jetted tubs. The common room will serve as a spot for hosting events events such as art exhibitions and intimate dinners with local scholars, writers and personalities. The owner has really thought of every fine detail, right down to providing bikes for their guests to tour the city of Buffalo.
