Rose Red Inn B&B

Rose Red Inn B&B was a wonderful stay. Rooms are clean, and owners are hospitable and eager to make sure everyone is comfortable and have what they need. They serve a delicious breakfast with ample servings. They also have snacks and drinks available at any time. A charcuterie board for afternoon snacking. It is walking distance from downtown Bardstown. Will definitely stay again!!!

The Red Rose Inn is a lovely bed and breakfast located in the center of Bardstown. Great location for exploring Abraham Lincoln's birthplace, Churchill Downs, and the beautiful countryside. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was delicious both mornings of our stay. We enjoyed our stay at the Red Rose Inn, and hope to return in the future.

Wonderful stay at a historic home circa 1817!

David & Susan we’re very welcoming and made every effort to ensure our stay was enjoyable and memorable. David helped us with our luggage which was unexpected but greatly appreciated. Breakfast was wonderful…not just because of the wonderful home cooked meal, big because it allowed time for talking with other guests as well as David and Susan. We heard many stories about Bardstown and about the bourbon trail experiences! Just wonderful!!

Great B & B

We had a nice stay at the Red Rose Inn, bed and breakfast, located within walking distance to the 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. I didn't find the king bed comfortable, springs seemed a little worn. Bedding and towels were soft and fresh. The whole house was spotlessly clean!
