When people think of Pennsylvania, the first thing that comes to mind is probably Hershey Park. However, the state has more to offer than that just that attraction.

While you’re on a trip to explore Pennsylvania, make sure to include West Chester in your next stop. It is a historic and quaint town with cosmopolitan charm. With dozens of boutiques and award-winning restaurants, the town is ideal for spending the day and shopping. Regardless of your type of vacation, you can enhance the experience by choosing an accommodation that you will want to come back to, over and over again. Take a look at our sampling of the best Airbnb vacation rentals in West Chester, Pennsylvania, and find out which one piques your interest.
1. Stylish home in the heart of West Chester (from USD 213)
“One of a kind” are the right words to describe this tastefully designed home situated in the heart of West Chester. The staircase in this house follows the design of a well-known architect George A. Matuszewski, which is why it has an edgy structure. There are plenty of amenities to take advantage of in this little gem; the two-story fireplace, for instance, creates a warm ambiance and the garage parking will keep your vehicle safe. Another thing that adds to the charm of this house is its location. You’ll be a moment away from dining options, shops, and parks.

3. Private bedroom (from USD 81)
There’s something about being in a homey, well-designed space that makes us feel at home even though we’re far from it. That’s why this bedroom in a three-story home built in the Victorian era, found in the historic district of the town, lands a spot on this list. The fact that the house is built with a veranda where guests may sit and soak in the view of the surrounding neighborhood is just one of the reasons why we love it. We can already imagine ourselves sipping a cup of tea next to the indoor fireplace, then stepping outside to admire the beautifully manicured yard.
