About the Innkeepers

Peter Herdic Inn, a beautifully restored Victorian mansion situated on Williamsport, Pennsylvania’s Millionaires Row, is owned and operated by sisters Gloria and Marcia Miele, and their husbands,  Jim Wood and Bob Elion, respectively.

Gloria is a Penn State grad. She sets the table and plants flowers. Jim is an MIT grad. He cooks great breakfasts on the weekend.

Marcia is a Brown grad. She cooks and makes menus. Marcia wrote the recipes for Dr. Richard K Bernstein’s book “The Diabetes Diet.” She and Gloria run the restaurant. Bob is a lawyer who graduated from the University of Iowa. His real love is stonework.

We enjoy cooking, biking, winetasting, historic preservation, architecture, crosscountry skiing, traveling — especially to Italy — organic gardening, and hospitality.

Gloria and Jim’s daughter, Liz Miele, also a Brown grad, cooks at the restaurant and helps out at the Inn. If you call the Inn, you’ll probably speak to Liz. Wes Breen, a grad of Penn College, is our longtime bar manager and friend. He also greets guests at the Inn.

The innkeepers speak English, a little Italian and French.
