An absolute score for Bourbon Fest

So pleasantly surprised by the Inn. Super easy check-in, very friendly front desk clerk, really cute, nicely decorated room, spacious bathroom, windows that opened to let in fresh air. Mattress was a little softer than I'm used to, but still super comfortable. The pillows are only polyester (I'm a real princess about pillows), and we were next to a stairwell, so could hear people coming in and out all night, but not loudly enough to disrupt our sleep. Amazing location walking distance from all the restaurants and bars downtown, and to Bourbon Fest. We talked all weekend about how lucky we were to be able to get a room here!

Room for improvement

It’s a very unique place with charm but there were food crumbs all over the floor in my room near the couch. I requested a box of tissues from the staff as the one in my room was empty and was told no. I came down to the breakfast room in the morning and seated myself as the sign advised; however, I sat for 40 minutes and was never greeted or served by the overwhelmed waitstaff. I made eye contact with the server and smiled but was ignored, maybe because I didn’t fit in the with the rest of the hotel guests which are overwhelmingly elderly.

This place is just cool. Like it’s just great in every aspect. Bed, room, lobby, restaurant, bar, area - it’s perfect. Oh, and if you get room 4, you’ll know where all the talk about the place being haunted comes from…seriously.

Staying at The Old Talbott Tavern is a special treat. The building is very historic, especially the dining room in the 1799 part of the building with the ancient timbers and two gorgeous stone fire places. We split an order of the beef stew. The rooms are very nice, big, and quite comfortable. We stayed in a room in the newer section (only about 100 years old) with windows looking out on the main street and town square. In addition to the nice restaurant, they have the obligatory gift shop and a great old bar with live music and, you guessed it, lots of whiskey.

I love the Talbott Inn, especially the rooms in the Old Talbott Tavern building. It is an historic property with all the charm of a building that dates back centuries. The rooms are a bit dated but, in my opinion, it just adds to the charm. The breakfast that comes with the room is not your run of the mill continental spread that many hotels provide these days, but a cooked to order traditional breakfast. Delicious!! Will be back.
