Let us pamper you at Appleton's
"International Bed & Breakfast Destination!"

E legance is expressed in every detail as you step back to 1894 and the grace of the Victorian Age. This Queen Anne B & B is back in fabulous form after a head-to-toe restoration. They don't make them like they used to, ha. The newly remodeled Appleton, WI bed and breakfast awaits your visit.

P ampering and style affected each decision as the theme suites and rooms were created. Ron Halma, innkeeper, steps away from the Franklin Street Inn and takes his experience with him. You will benefit from his seven years of innkeeping as he hosts you at this inn. May your stay be as good as gold as you enter the warm golden foyer and halls or linger in the cozy Fox Room. View some history from the Fox Valley on display in this room. Let us serve as your concierge as you plan your itinerary, deciding what activities and attractions will help make your stay memorable.

The key to a great Wisconsin getaway is going through the door at the Franklin Inn on Durkee! Your full gourmet breakfast will be served at our formal dining room table under the pineapple chandelier. Look around to see our growing collection of pineapple theme decor.

Note: that is your assurance of a warm welcome because the symbol of a pineapple represents the hospitality that we offer to our guests. Guests staying in the suites have a complimentary breakfast room service option.

Take a tour through the inn and discover which of our four intriguing rooms/suites will suit your needs best.
