The perfect combination of old-world charm and modern comforts. The owners have thought of every detail to create a lovely stay, and we loved arriving to a warm welcome of tea and cookies. The rooms are precious and cared for immaculately. May, the hostess and caretaker of the space, was so delightful! So caring of guests. The breakfast was exquisite, and served with love. Thank you, DuPont Mansion!

Meg and Melody were fantastic! Fun sharing stories about the mansion, and meeting others during breakfast - also appreciated the texts from Grace ahead of our stay with instructions on accessing the mansion, etc. Grace also recommended restaurants, and we had a magical evening at Buck's - Reggie played piano, Anthony greeted us warmly, reminisced about Buck (the prior owner), and shared a mutual admiration for Prince Rogers Nelson. Natalie was a dynamite server. Food and drinks were exceptional - thank you all for being a true highlight on our vacation!

Lovely

We were upgraded to a room at Central Park Bed and Breakfast with our permission; we were notified ahead of our stay of an a/c problem at Dupont Mansion. A welcome gift for our trouble was provided, even though it was only a block from our original destination. Beautiful room, amazing shower, and the specialty breakfast (included) was unique and wonderful. The hosts were pleasant and kind. Definitely recommend! The complimentary cookies weren't bad, either.

Experience Old Louisville

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at DuPont Mansion. Our room was nicely decorated and spacious. The bathroom was extra large. We'd call the breakfasts "gourmet" - very tasty and satisfying. Meg did an excellent job of taking care of our needs and answering our questions during our stay. The location was perfect for us - a quiet neighborhood with easy parking. It was a short, direct drive down the street to downtown Louisville. Churchhill Downs - 3 miles, airport - 6 miles. One suggestion - if you don't like stairs, be sure to stay on the second floor, The old mansions have very high floor-to-floor heights. We plan to stay at DuPont Manor when we visit Louisville again.

Good room, but overall exp. needs improvement.

Nice spacious room. Helpful staff on the phone as had to request entry code. Cleanliness was average and I found the bed topper and mattress was too soft for me. Very quiet. Parking useful but rear garden needs some TLC. Breakfast was not to my taste. Would prefer choice of eggs or pancakes, not the weird cobbler? . New chef apparently, and not a good start. Left hungry .

Grand and Luxurious

It was like living a luxurious life a century ago, upscale and grand. I love most meeting the other occupants for breakfast in the same table. That was a treat to chit chat amongst them.
