Found this place on road trip when tired of driving. Small quaint town. Place has lots of spaces for renting out for parties. There were 3 or 4 parties there when we checked into a room. Rooms include breakfast. Rooms had decent bathroom and bedding. Old flowery wallpaper and old TV set. Did have fridge and wi-fi. Our room smelled... More

All the rooms are up the stairs on the second floor. The rooms are older with older furnishings and flowery wallpaper. Pretty and cozy. The steam radiator was putting out the heat so we cranked on the air conditioner and evened things out. Nice bed and good bathroom. Wi-fi and a refrigerator. Not a modern hotel by any means but...

We stop at the Sherman House Restaurant en route back to Indianapolis after a day of skiing at Perfect North Slopes. The restaurant is just a few minutes off of I-65 in downtown Batesville so very easy to reach and a nice alternative to the usual fast food and chain choices. They serve very hearty (consider splitting dishes if you're... More

We recently had lunch there and enjoyed a delightful meal. My husbnad ate the Sherman House Special Rueben which was outstanding and I had the Sauerbratten with Red Cabbage.. we... More

Didn't plan to stop in this town, yet as we pulled off HWY 74 we saw the church steeple and drove into town. A LOVELY place. We decided to stay overnight, found Bernie at the front desk and she set us up with three very different rooms. An extremely old place, yet the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the... More

Named after General Sherman, this historic building is now in the hands of Doug Bessler, a native of Batesville, Indiana. Mr. Bessler has done a remarkable job of renovating and providing guests with a 5 star restaurant. After a very dismal experience on American Eagle, we made it to the restaurant in time for dinner. What Bliss! I had the... More

The Sherman House is interesting if you are the type that likes old world charm. We had a suite that was large and clean. The king size bed was comfortable. We were on the 2nd floor and no elevator so pack lightly. Hallways are narrow compared to more modern lodgings. The next room had smokers which was a negative for... More

We stopped at Sherman House on our way to Cincinnati. I had been eyeing the billboard for a long time, but this was the first time we had the leisure time to stop for a longer lunch. It's a beautiful old building, full of charm and character. There was a really nice variety on the menu - traditional German foods,... More

Our room was comfortable and clean. We had adjoining rooms as we had 2 of our granddaughters with us. The hotel is older and it was interesting for the girls to see the difference in this inn versus the modern hotels we had also visited. While there wasn't a pool there was a game room, however, it had a musty... More
