We stayed in the Magnolia Room. Accessibility into the house and our room was seamless. The only downside is that it is on the main drag and there was so much traffic noise. It was too loud to enjoy sitting on the porch. The upside though is that it is walking distance to dining, shopping and taverns.

We had a very nice stay at the Red Rose Inn, bed and breakfast, located within walking distance to…read morethe historic Bardstown downtown area. The Inn was built in the early 1800's featuring 4 bedrooms all with private baths ( 1 on the 1st floor and 3 on the 2nd floor), a sitting area and dining room on the main floor and a large deck out back. The deck had 3 separate umbrella tables and chairs! The bedrooms were very spacious. Bathroom was a little tight, though I appreciated more space in the bedroom. Charming antique decor throughout. Hosts, Susan and David were very friendly. Hot breakfast was at 9 in the dining room with all the guests together. Coffee was available at ~7am There is street parking in front and a small parking area behind the house through the alley. The alley was very tight! The street the house is on is a pretty busy road so you do hear the street noise at bedtime but slowed down after 10pm. I didn't find the king bed very comfortable, springs seemed a little worn. Bedding and towels were lovely very soft and fresh. The whole house was spotlessly clean! We highly recommend and would stay again +1 Service +1 Food~Taste/flavor/quality +1 Presentation +1 Atmosphere/vibe +1 Value

The Veranda Bed and Breakfast is tucked in the middle of downtown Bardstown in a lovely…read moreneighborhood. The house itself looks little run down from the outside, but still appears clean and operational. Ann, the housekeeper/owner, has decorated the home with more trinkets from travels than I have ever seen in my life. If you stay here she will give you an elaborate tour describing every detail of nearly every piece of furniture and artwork in the house (so be prepared for a lengthy tour). She is incredibly friendly and kind, however quite talkative, so be prepared to be stealthy if you want to come and go without being caught in a lengthy conversation. The home is very historic and elegant, but not luxurious. The beds are old and somewhat uncomfortable. The bathrooms are ornate, but are equipped with old, lacy towels and large bottles of shampoo that I imagine have been there for ages. Both mornings that we were there, Ann prepared us hearty breakfasts including baked apples, pecan french toast with bourbon syrup and fried green tomatoes. If you're a person in need of wi-fi for business or pleasure you won't get any here and there isn't anywhere close to go and find it. Furthermore most of the outlets in the house are older and will not accommodate the power supply for your laptop. Simply put, be prepared to live essentially as a minimalist during your stay. A big perk to this bed and breakfast (or any of them in this area) is that it's located very close to the Bourbon Trail. We toured Maker's Mark and Heaven Hill distilleries, but I can talk about those later. While the home looks beautiful and the local area is gorgeous, the price per night here is far too high for what you get. We've stayed in better homes with more amenities for far cheaper. I've read the other Yelp user have reported this location as closed, but we stayed here earlier this week and can assure you it's open. Ann did mention that it may close during the winter because she does not heat the house.

I believe this is the B & B my family and I stayed in about 18 years ago. The place was nice…read moreenough but rather cluttered. The main complaint I had about this place is how horribly haunted it is/was! I barely slept at night due to the bed shaking, the foot steps in the hallway and the general feelings of malevolence in the place. I will never stay here again!

Fantastic. The basic…read morerequirements of a bed and breakfast is to give you somewhere to sleep and some food in the morning. You're Invited Inn was so much more, and so fantastic, that it's the perfect spot to stay when you're touring the Bourbon Trail. Easter and Alvin are fantastic hosts, and their house sits not far from the highway. Their directions are easy to follow, and GPS easily finds the address which is even more important when your flight's delayed and you don't get to the area until after midnight. They left us a note on the door, made sure we could get in, and the room was beautiful and even included some homemade brownies as a "sorry for the airlines being lame!" goodnight snack. The bed, at least in the red room we stayed in, was a king size and included a couch, supple carpet and a bathroom with a soaking tub. But we weren't interested, just interested in sleeping, which we did forthwith. Breakfast, similarly, was as fantastic as you'd expect it to be. It's the first three-course breakfast I'd ever had, and included an appetizer (coffee cake), a main course (potatoes, eggs and bacon and/or sausage) as well as a dessert. More coffee than you can shake a stick at, and flexible timing so if you want breakfast a little earlier or later, Easter would work with you to make that happen. For Bourbon Fest, and a lot of other prime leaf-viewing weekends, people make reservations a long time in advance, so get your request in early. It's one of the best spots to stay.

Stayed here for one night's lodging after attending an event in the area. The room was fantastic…read morewith comfortable accommodations and I slept well after an initial adjustment period to the street noise below my window. I was in the upstairs corner Lincoln Suite and the stone walls are thick and several layers of draperies contribute to the quietude. Although the building is old, many modernized remodels have been completed. However, do not expect an up-to-date type space. For example, there is a slight step up into the bathroom. The door to the room also rattled whenever someone else closed a door elsewhere .... Or maybe that was Lincoln's ghost? I was too tired to fret about it and slept well. Would recommend staying here at least once for a unique experience. Breakfast was included in the room rate. Menu is in the room to contemplate ahead of time. Went down to the dining area prior to my check out and had a nice dining experience. Ordered the Traditional Breakfast option and it was well prepared and satisfying, so overall also a great value. There is also a Keurig coffeemaker in the room. Staff are all very welcoming and proficient. Parking was free next to the property.

4.5 What a pleasant and enjoyable stay! We were completely…read moresurprised by the comfort and conveniences provided at the Talbott Inn. We had looked at the historic rooms at the nearby Tavern (our reason for visiting), but decided not to take our chance on stairs we'd have to negotiate to get to a room. However, the Inn has a very large and convenient elevator, so that's the place we chose. (Note: the elevator is very slow...but what's the rush?) The reception desk and area is small but adequate with odds and ends of tchotchkes for sale. Receptionist was very polite. Our room was spacious! And...I mean bigger than the photos represent and much larger than we imagined. Large comfy bed, plenty of soft and medium pillows, fridge, microwave, chairs to lounge, relax, or read. Complementary bottles of water, coffee and coffee maker. All nice touches. And thermostat was easy to adjust. Bathroom was fine, clean, well-stocked with one notable exception, which we find in nearly every hotel we stay in these days: No towel rods to hang wet towels or wash cloths. That is, except one hook high up on the back of the bathroom door. (Virtually out of reach for my wife. We find this an unreasonable inconvenience in all our travels....(so only a half point deduction here.) Windows provided beautiful views of the square and were seemingly well-insulated....so no terrible traffic noises to keep us awake during the night. (OK...A few trucks in the morning, but not too early.) All-in-all we give this lodging very high marks and our solid recommendation. Oh, and very reasonably priced to boot!
