We'd love to keep it a secret, but this is the best place to stay in the city. Period. We have stayed all over town and nobody has a more wonderful space and location. So well done you'll want to stay an extra day... Or ten.

Words truly cannot describe how unique the experience is to stay at Elves Manor. I have always wanted to stay at a bed and breakfast type of place but my husband has nixed the idea for 28 years! ( that's how many anniversaries I have tried the idea on him with NO luck). He has never liked the idea of... More

My husband and I booked a stay at Elves Manor when we were in St. Louis for a concert. We could not have chosen a more perfect place to stay. We were allowed to check in early, Karen (the innkeeper) was so friendly and accommodating! Everyone who visits her leaves gifts for her or the inn. She gives you the... More

From the homemade goodies in the fridge, such as organic homemade yogurt, granola, organic boiled eggs, fresh fruit bowl, freshly baked bread, to the softness of the sheets on the bed, to the fluffy towels in the bathroom, it was truly an enchanting place. The decor is wonderous, unique, and whimsical. We kept finding all kinds of interesting things every... More

I had a great visit planned in late September and had never been to St Louis before. I had heard this was a wonderful B&B but never imagined I would be staying in such a fantastic guest house. Twhile keeping the environment in mind at all times. It seemed to be centrally located to almost anything you would want to... More

The innkeeper here is a charming woman who seems to truly love running Elves Manor. The proof is in the numerous rave reviews on multiple travel sites and her booked calendar. My family booked two nights here as a surprise for my father, who was visiting St. Louis with his girlfriend on his birthday. After booking, we wanted to send... More

My son, grandson and I stayed here for 2 nights because we were in St. Louis for a U2 concert at Bush Stadium. The hosts, cottage, surroundings, etc were all excellent as described in other reviews. We needed three separate beds, so would have had to book a hotel suite or two standard hotel rooms; this was a much better... More

I loved staying at Elves Manor. For around the same price as a suite at a hotel, you get the entire house to yourself, and it's a beautiful house. The innkeeper, Karen, is so friendly. Plus, there's all sort of food in the fridge, and a hot tub outside. We had a great vacation.

we stayed only one night in elves manor, but wish we could have been there for days. the small house was PERFECT for me, my husband, our 2 children and another couple and their new baby. the hostess thought of everything - high chair, pack-n-play, milk, freshly roasted coffee, homemade yogurt, amazing homemade bread, movies, CDs, soaps... nothing was forgotten....
