Verified review

6/10 Good

The staff (Kimberly and James) were wonderful, very helpful and they each cooked a delicious, unique breakfast. We liked the beautiful old mansion and the others mansions on the block were lovely to look at, especially with their lighted Halloween decorations up. We, unfortunately, were in a room in the front of the house and at night, the planes landing in the nearby airport passed by our window every two minutes making it difficult for us to sleep. They were so close, I could actually see the planes, not just the lights. I spoke to other guests and they said the rooms at the back had less noise. The guest kitchen was nice, with coffee, fresh water and fresh baked cookies, and a refrigerator to put left-overs.

I usually don’t take the time to leave reviews but this place was a gem. The house has a very cool history, and the breakfast (!) was amazing. Do not skip breakfast! It was delicious and well worth the stay. The staff were so very kind and helpful. Will definitely stay again next time we are in town.

The stay was amazing. The house/B&B is absolutely stunning inside and out. The breakfast was fantastic as well, everything felt very personal and comfortable. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anybody looking for a more personal and at-home-feeling stay rather than a typical hotel!

Ck-in was easy, we were showed around and provided info. Probably the best bed We have ever had in a BNB. For those with back issues, that means a lot.James served up a scrumptious breakfast. We were most impressed with him using an AI translator to communicate with an Asian guest that did not speak English. Well done James. He was most hospitable. Unfortunately, our trip was only overnight but we look forward to returning. Thanks to all!

The room and bathroom were spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable, the 2-person jacuzzi tub was relaxing, the house was quiet, the breakfast was delicious, and the Innkeeper, Ryan, was very accommodating and enjoyable to sit and talk with. This was our first time staying in a B&B, and we highly recommend it for anyone wanting to stay in the Old Louisville area.

The quality of the breakfasts served was an unexpected surprise. Gourmet biscuits and gravy like no other that I've ever had. It began with really good coffee and a chilled strawberry puree cup. Definitely not what the Hampton Inns or Holiday Inn Express has to offer. The well cared for Victorian era elegance, an exceptionally large room and bath made the DuPont my go to B&B in Louisville.

A lovely place to stay in Louisville. Ideal location if coming for themShakespeare festival in nearby Central Park or a morning stroll at Saint James Court. Parking was not a problem. The house is beautifully furnished but the small rooms are not well suited for reading or meeting people. My bedroom was simple but comfortable. The kitchen is convenient. The breakfasts are delicious fruit starters and one main which changes every day. Drip coffee and OJ. Overall, an excellent choice if looking for a Victorian mansion B&B.
