Wonderful accommodations

Beautiful Bed-and-breakfast facility. Amazing room with lots of space and comfortable beds. It would’ve been nice to stay a little longer to enjoy how quaint this home was. If I ever come back to Paducah, this will definitely be the place to stay.

good place to stay

The breakfast was very delicious. I enjoyed talking with the owner my first day there since I was the only guest that day. The second day we had more guests, so the other guests were talking with the owner. Although I had problems with the tv, she did her best to solve the problem. The bed and especially the pillows were very comfortable. I enjoyed the balcony and the close proximity to the downtown.

Perfect gem!

We are so glad we found The Respite. The rooms were large, clean and comfortable. The bed was excellent. Not realizing breakfast was included, they texted us to let us know they had breakfast in the kitchen for us. It was a wondeful stay.

We only stayed one night while passing through Paducah and I wanted something in the historic downtown district. This property was beautiful and check in was easy and convenient. We were sent the codes to get into the B&B and the room prior to arriving and everything worked perfectly. The room (#4) is very roomy and beautifully decorated. The billiards room was very cool. We met the hostess, Shelley, at breakfast and she was very friendly, and we enjoyed talking with her. It was only a couple blocks walk to get to the downtown area where we enjoyed sampling some local brews at Paducah Beer Werks and supper at Broussard's for some delicious Cajun food. I wish we had planned on staying another night or two!

I want to go back!

Absolutely loved this place. The outside of the building does not do justice to the clean, beautiful decor of the interior. It was quiet and comfortable. The owner was up in the morning making breakfast for all the guests that were staying there the night previously. She was kind, sociable and a great hostess.

Although this looks like an historic house and it’s nestled in the historic district, it’s actually, relatively new. It has all the modern conveniences. I do wish there was a full length mirror. Otherwise it was perfect.

The b&b is beautiful. We are disappointed that there isn't a thermostat for the room so we could control the temp of our room. Also disappointed in the comfort of the mattress. It is very hard and uncomfortable.
