    This is truly a gem of Louisville-- if you're looking for a place to stay, stop your search and just book it! The property is a treasure, lovingly cared for and located centrally to all Louisville has to offer. You can tell that Jason is proud of both Louisville and the home, making what could feel like an immense mansion feel like your home away from home. We had fun exploring not just the neighborhood but the house itself, which is full of fun treasures from days gone by. The room was clean, the bed comfortable, and the food delicious. We would not hesitate to stay here again on future visits to Louisville!

    We needed a place for a Saturday overnight in Louisville and were tired of the hit and miss with hotel/motel quality. So glad we tried out this mansion. Jason was a great host, and answered all our questions and provided suggestions for places to eat and visit. He even let us park in the driveway if the street was full, even though it would block him in. As others have noted, the interior of the mansion is historic, with a wide variety of architectural features. In addition, the owners have spent years in filling the place with period pieces and antiques. There was so much to look at in every room. We enjoyed the neighborhood, and did a walking tour of many of the streets nearby, taking tons of photos. Jason recommended St. James Court, a few blocks away, and that was just amazing. We used the "Louisville Room" located on the 3rd floor, with an en-suite bathroom. It was spacious and comfortable for the two of us for the night. We enjoyed the magnificent dining room setting and having our breakfast cooked for us in the morning. It is not often a person gets treated like the rich and famous and gets served!! That was a treat. If we find ourselves in Louisville again, we would see if there is a room available. I regret there was not enough time for a more thorough tour of the interior. Perhaps next time.

    Clean, comfortable and located in the heart of historic Old Louisville. Courteous hosts provide the experience of mansion-guest living. The daily breakfasts to start off your site seeing day are delicious and incorporate local fare. Don’t miss the Kentucky ham!

    The perfect place to stay in Louisville while visiting the many distilleries on the Bourbon Trail or other venues in town. Comfortable rooms, very well appointed in historical decor. The innkeeper Jason will meet your every need, while the owner Rudy will invite you to his onsite bar in the lower level. You must see this mansion!

    Such beautiful surroundings and such a considerate host (Jason), pertaining to little thoughtful things and big thoughtful things. I appreciated the nightlight in the bathroom drawer, to light the way. I appreciated the USB port as well as the outlets on the nightstand, to help me charge all those devices I travel with. And I most appreciated that Jason moved me to a bigger, classier room ("the President") than the one I'd originally booked, without any charge. He was concerned about heightened airplane noise, with the low-hanging clouds on a rainy night. This gleaming mansion and its furnishings and big windows truly create a palatial effect. Marble even in the bathrooms. The next morning, assume that there will be a lavish breakfast in an astonishingly gracious dining room. I beheld a fruit cup, 7Up pound cake that made me want to look up recipes, and home cooked French toast with bacon. I had landed in a land of Oz.

    I cannot express how wonderful our stay at the mansion was. The food was out of this world and the hospitality could not have been better. My party stayed here for the 2013 Kentucky Derby and it felt like we were living in the mansion, not just guests. The mansion is beautiful inside and we enjoyed lounging in the main rooms and having a cocktail on the front porch. Each morning the table was set beautifully for breakfast. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our stay was the best it could be. I will stay here again, no doubt. Many warm thanks to Rudy, Jason and Beverly for a wonderful experience.

    This is a wonderful alternative to the pricey hotels a few blocks away - please try this place for comfort and privacy. Plus, it is beautifully decorated to preserve the past while offering all of the modern conveniences. The owner was very gracious when we had to leave a day early because of a family emergency. We got a great recommendation from Jason for places to eat supper within walking distance. If we are ever in Louisville again, we will stay here - might not wait for a reason!
