Enjoyed our stay! Room was clean, comfortable, quiet and spacious.
A nice supply of bath, hand towels and wash cloths. Plenty of K cup coffee choices for the keurig. Would be nice to have a tea selection also.
The grounds and house are well maintained. Loved the different sitting areas/rooms, beautifully decorated. Breakfast was decent every morning with a few choices (scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, toast, yogurt, blueberries, granola). Would be nice if it was changed up at least every other day, maybe alternate the eggs with pancakes or waffles and sausage with bacon and different fruit options. It was nice to have the choice of a voucher to use for breakfast also. Had some delish pastries at Kirchhoff's.
We look forward to another stay next time in town.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bed & Breakfast (B&B) in Paducah, Kentucky. The atmosphere was incredibly cozy—truly a home away from home. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and the property offered wonderful amenities such as a relaxing lounge, a pool table, and an inviting living room. Downtown Paducah was just a short walk away, with plenty of restaurants, unique riverfront shops, and a scenic area ideal for strolling and discovering the history displayed on the levee wall. The owner of the Respite B&B was exceptionally welcoming and shared fascinating stories about the home and the local area. We look forward to returning soon and highly recommend this B&B to anyone seeking a cozy, peaceful retreat in downtown Paducah.

Really nice staff, allowed for early check-in when traveling with a 1-year old. Close to downtown galleries etc., but only on-street parking available (expected) and our car was covered in sap in the morning (unexpected). The real deal-breaker for me was the bed in the room we stayed in. It literally was so high it had a step-stool but not only that it was a level of firm that to me was painful to sleep on (and the lack of any give made me more concerned I would roll off the extremely high bed). My husband said it was hard but okay, I found it literally unsleepable and added a blanket to the couch and slept there.

We loved the Respite Bed and Breakfast. It was charming but up to date. It is beautifully decorated and has all the modern conveniences. We loved that it has a self check in. Our host let us know that our room was ready early and we appreciated that. Our reservation through Expedia included either breakfast at the Respite or a voucher for a restaurant in the town. We chose the breakfast in the Respite and we're so glad we did. The food was delicious we so enjoyed meeting our host and the other guests.
The Respite is within walking distance to shops and restaurants. And Paducah is a very friendly town! We will definitely go back.

My New Favorite Inn

The Respite B&B is absolutely gorgeous. This may be the most comfortable, clean, roomy, and beautiful room we’ve ever stayed in. The owner/operators have created an elegant yet inviting inn. Breakfast was freshly cooked and yummy, and Shelly was generous with her time and info about the Inn and the town. Stay here in Paducah, you won’t be sorry!

Could not control air in our room. We stayed during the first week of August. It was hot and wish we had a thermostat in room to turn air conditioning temperature down.

We stayed at the Respite for two nights while in town visiting family. The Inn is beautifully maintained and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. We had breakfast on one of our mornings there and it was very good. We would happily stay here again.

Honestly, because of multiple festivals and events that weekend, my first choice was sold out, but the Respite ad looked comparable and I got their last room…and that them made them sold out, too. The facility is nicely appointed in traditional art, antiques and decor. The room seemed much nicer than its pictures, so that was a pleasant surprise. Perhaps the spacious balcony porch with its padded rocking chairs was my favorite spot. The staff person person onsite was quite cordial, hospitable and competent, including their breakfast cooking. The Respite is also extremely convenient to the Convention and Expo Center. Now that a day has passed, I believe “Respite” is a perfect name for this jewel in Paducah.
