About This Bed and Breakfast
Benton Park Inn is an urban-chic bed and breakfast tucked in the historic Benton Park neighborhood of St. Louis, Missouri. Guests stay in one of only three spacious upstairs guest suites within a beautifully restored 1895 home—giving a sense of boutique comfort amidst city access. Located just a short walk to excellent restaurants, craft beer, and local culture, the inn offers the rare balance of walkability and refinement.
Atmosphere
The atmosphere here is warm, personal, and distinctly neighborhood-rooted. Guests often highlight the setting across from the park, the tree-lined streets, and the calm of the house despite its proximity to lively St. Louis attractions. Hosts and their friendly dog Rosie are frequently mentioned as part of the welcoming vibe. The property feels less like a hotel and more like staying with gracious friends in a restored historic home.
Cleanliness
Visitors consistently praise the high standard of cleanliness and attention to detail. Suites are described as comfortable, stylish, and well-equipped—featuring quality beds, generous space, private bathrooms, and thoughtful amenities. The common areas, breakfast service space, and historic public rooms are also maintained to a high standard, reinforcing the sense of care.
Bathrooms
Each of the three guest suites includes a private bath and is individually styled. Some feature king or queen beds, whirlpool tubs or luxurious shower setups (for example, the “Virginia Minor” and “Thomas Hart Benton” suites) and private balconies or views overlooking the park. Rooms are designed to blend historic character (high ceilings, period architecture) with contemporary comfort.
Breakfast
Breakfast is noted as a strong highlight of the stay—home-cooked, thoughtfully prepared, and served in a personalized style. Guests note the generosity, friendly service, and the way the hosts go out of their way to make each morning feel special. Hospitality across the stay is repeatedly cited: attentive hosts, helpful local tips, and a relaxed yet polished experience.
