Experience history with a modern twist by visiting the popular attraction known as Bube's Brewery. It was originally founded by Bavarian immigrant, Alois Bube, who established the brewery and the Central House Hotel in 1889. In continuous operation ever since, the establishment is now a microbrewery & restaurant offering guests the very best in ales, casual fare, fine dining and interactive events.
The space
The Malt Baron’s Mansion is the historic home of Philip Frank, a leading citizen of Mount Joy, Lancaster County and owner of one of the largest malt making factories on the East Coast. He sold his malt (the main ingredient in beer) to breweries all over the northeast in the late 1800’s. As would befit a man of his stature, he built a fine brick mansion at 109 North Market Street in his home town. Across the street from his home is a brewery built (with Philip’s backing) by his friend Alois Bube who also ran a hotel at the location and lived there with his family as well (102 North Market Street). As guests at the Malt Baron’s Mansion, we hope you will enjoy staying directly across the street from Bube’s Brewery, currently an active brewery, dining, and entertainment complex with three restaurants, an outdoor Biergarten, a hotel, museum, ballroom, underground Catacombs, an escape room, and of course, a brewery making some very tasty beers. The Malt Baron’s Mansion includes two suites that can be rented individually (each having a private entrance) or collectively (interior doors can be unlocked to combine them for a larger group). Each of the suites can be rented as a two bedroom or one bedroom unit (we charge less if you only need one bedroom). Each of the suites has a living room, dining area, full kitchen, and a full private bathroom each with a bathtub/shower. Each unit includes a TV with basic cable, Wifi, and streaming capability. We like our guests to know that the Mansion is run by Bube’s Brewery and if anything special is needed (extra chairs, blankets, projector screen, extra cooking utensils, etc.) we probably have it and are happy to provide such things for your stay. Of course we are happy to host you for lunch, dinner, a nightcap, or a tour of our very special historic complex right across the street.
The Caroline Frank Suite – Two bedrooms, side porch right by side street parking, back porch with gas grill, bedrooms and half bath upstairs, full bath downstairs, full size sofa bed downstairs, large living/dining area, large kitchen with washer and dryer (over/under), and a large balcony accessible from master bedroom.
