This was a fun stay. Staff were awesome. And room was one of a kind! I’ll visit again.
Jared, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Was advertised as having breakfast and there wasn’t any breakfast. We should have been told this up front. Also, there were multiple trains that went by very close to the hotel and blew their whistles as they went by.
Roberta, 1-night trip

The Town of Blackwater and Iron Horse Hotel was the end our short visit to 5 small towns in mid Missouri. The Hotel and Town exceeded our expectations. The Owner takes pride in this old Hotel and the Town. We would recommend that this is the Hotel and Town to visit in mid Missouri.

We had a good visit. There was no food service and the small town did not have much to offer in food service eirher. The accommodations were good. Beautiful antiques. The bathroom is set up with a deep old tub. Shower handle available.

Iron horse is the best!

I’ve never stayed at a bed and breakfast before. What a wonderful experience. Far cry from the big hotels. Very friendly and best breakfast by far.
Judy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a true gem of a hotel that everybody should stay at if you’re in the area! I absolutely LOVED this place! It is filled with charm and ambiance and the owners/managers are so friendly. Breakfast is included and it’s very convenient to I-70. This was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in! I wish I could have stayed a few more days! Book it…you’ll love it if you love old historic hotels!
Beverly, 1-night trip

Wonderful unique and historic property with beautifully restored woodwork and furnishings and well-kept grounds. The room was spacious and the beds were very comfortable. It feels like stepping back in time in quaint small-town America.

Friendly Nichole called the day of our stay to give us a heads up on check-in (piece-o-cake.) If you love old architecture, this is for you. This review for SOUTHERN BELLE ROOM. Outer walls brick, inner walls padded fabric. 10-ft ceilings and 18” crown molding! It was a hot day, and we expected our room to be warm with west exposure and 4 big single-pane windows. But they must have a tremendous ventilation system; it was very comfortable. The room had good blackout curtains. They do stand apart and away from the wall a bit. so if you’re a privacy freak, just bring a few clothespins. Someone did a great job cleaning the room. The clawfoot tub sports a few scuffs, but has a perfect angle for soaking, way better than modern tubs. The mattress was pretty comfortable. The 4-poster frame is beautiful; it did squeak quite loudly when I turned over. Beautiful old furniture does that. There’s a lounge upstairs with frig & microwave, chairs & magazines, coffee/tea fixings, extra towels, ironing board, and an entrance to the rooftop deck. Even flashlights to step out there after dark. They’re upgrading the patio area—a great spot for morning coffee by the flowers. You may have a visitor cat. Food isn’t served there, but if you bring microwave food, you can use tables and an ice machine in the dining room. There’s also a great room for guests to relax in. One train went around bedtime—close and loud and fun! If any more went in the night, we didn’t hear them.

Close to the Lyceum Theatre

Old quaint hotel. Very clean, full breakfast included in room price. Be reminded, NO TV in room but we had our laptop and were able to stream a movie. We stayed here in conjunction with seeing a show at The Lyceum in Arrow Rock.

QUALITY AND PEACEFUL SETTING!!

The Iron Horse Hotel/B&B is an absolute treat! The furnishings are gorgeous. The room was comfortable with nice thoughtful touches. We stayed in room 5 which had roof access to a seating area. The breakfast was served in a lovely dining room. The general manager and her staff made our stay enjoyable !! The service was above and beyond!! We found a new favorite!!
