I stayed at Dupont Mansion this past weekend in Louisville. When I walked in, I was instantly impressed with the decor- very old fashioned and classy. The owner, Herb, gave us a tour of the entire property and then took us up to our room. Nice, smaller rooms but comfortable enough for two. He asked us what our plans were... More

We usually stay with family when in town, up for a wedding so we were on our own and had never stayed at a Louisville B&B. This is a perfect choice, Old Louisville is a fantastic place, easy to stroll around Central Park and very convenient to downtown, University of Louisville and Churchill Downs. The inn is in great shape,... More

Our stay at the Dupont Mansion was just great. Beautiful mansion and room, spotless, comfy bed, and great breakfast! The Inn keeper was out and Herb (owner) was just so friendly and feel us feel right at home. Sooo much better than staying in a hotel while in Louisville. The neighborhood where the mansion located was full of beautiful, historic... More

We recently stayed at the Dupont Mansion B&B during our 50th wedding anniversary. We were entirely enthralled with both the service and the place! Gayle (owner) and Genny (Inn Keeper) were excellent hosts, making every effort to ensure that we had a most wonderful and memorable experience. Their graciousness cannot be overstated. Upon discovering that it was our 50th anniversary... More

I'm a business traveler and for very close to what I pay at chains, the Dupont Mansion is an amazing experience and value. The owners spared no expense to restore this gorgeous estate to it's original beauty. The service, room, and overall experience truly was outstanding. I have no excuse to stay at a chain in or around Louisville ever... More

We stayed in the Carnegie Suite over the MLK holiday weekend and had a lovely time. The room was spotless and well appointed and the breakfast was outstanding both mornings. Our host Herb was helpful with suggestions (try Bucks for dinner just around the corner) and gave us a tour of the sister property across the street. We can't wait... More

We spent 2 nights in the Thomas Edison room and could not have been happier with our choice. Our room was comfortable and inviting. The house itself provides many extra amenities that we've never encountered before, such as a kitchen on every floor with a coffee bar, snacks and a fridge full of drinks. The breakfasts were spectacular and our... More

My wife and I were looking for a relaxing weekend, and in a beautiful setting. I found the Dupont Mansion's web site, and from the description of the B & B I knew we had discovered our destination, and we were not disappointed. We enjoyed all the amenities, the friendly staff, and we enjoyed Herb joining us for breakfasts on... More

I almost hate to leave a negative review but I really want to let people know this was not all it's cracked up to be. To be fair the home is beautiful and well decorated, the innkeeper Jane and the owner were very pleasant and our breakfast was far and away the best part of our stay. The neighborhood had... More

The home is beautiful, the room was very comfortable, the food was outstanding, but Genny, the Innkeeper, is worth the visit. She greeted me at the door, answered all my questions about Louisville, shared stories of her ventures with me, made me feel right at home. I came to Louisville for the Christmas Tour of Homes and my stay at... More
