I gave The Courtland an \"excellent\" rating not because it is excellent in the same way I would rate a 5-star Hilton in downtown Portland, for instance. This is an historic building, in an historic part of Ft. Scott. It is run by ordinary folks and everything in that neighborhood is, well, historic (or old). So, it doesn't have glitz but it does have charm and it is peaceful. I would stay there again if I ever return to Ft. Scott. The owners are wonderful people.

Great place but wasn’t for us!

This was an older building with great character, the couple that owned and managed it were extremely friendly, respectful, helpful, great really, but the room was the tiniest we ever stayed in! If we had been overweight we would not have fit in the bathroom! We had to watch tv on a 19 inch screen, not exactly what we’re looking for!

What an awesome place! I’m not sure if I’ll ever be back, but maybe I’ve found an excuse to visit now. Frank, the owner, text me first thing in the morning on the day of my arrival to ask if I needed anything. He greeted me upon arrival, showed me to my room and took the time to strike up conversation and talk to me about the things he thought I’d find interesting after he learned a little about my interests. The town itself is adorable, like something out of a hallmark movie. My work for the day was in Pleasanton, but I’d gladly drive the 28 minutes out of my way to stay there again!! If you’re going to visit, this is the place to stay!! Enjoy.

The location in the old downtown was great, allowing walking around on the old brick streets and getting to restaurants and saloons without needing to drive. The old 1906 building is funky and the stairway up to the rooms is long, but this elderly couple had no trouble getting suitcases and backpacks up. The room and bathroom were small, but the bed was comfortable and we slept well. For us better than a generic new place at the edge of town in an area without charm or sidewalks.

This is a beautiful turn of the century hotel built in 1902. The owner has modernized it with A/C and bathroom facilities in each room while still maintaining most of the original ambiance. We checked in early and left for an event. Late in the evening innkeeper Frank met us at the door and escorted us to our room. Room was beautifully appointed with antiques and a very comfortable bed. In the morning Frank met us at the continental breakfast area and shared with us a lot of very interesting history of the hotel and general area. This hotel does not all of the modern amenities of a newer hotel but makes up for it in olden times charm.

We enjoyed the historic building. We spent some time enjoying the large living room and looking at the antique furniture throughout the building. Our room was cosy and comfortable, and the owner was extremely friendly and helpful.

The property was authentic and antique. The property owners were genuine, interesting to speak with, friendly and helpful. The spa was relaxing and priced below industry standard. Definitely not your typical hotel experience. Loved the character of the property.

This boutique hotel sends one to another era—1906 to be exact. The Courtland hotel is simply unforgettable. Reminds me of a western movie—but with internet.

The Hotel Staff was very interested in providing a positive experience. They walked us to our room and gave some history of the place. The location relative to the main heart of the old but also now new downtown district was excellent and we did not feel unsafe at any time

Beautiful historic hotel

It was a great stay. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. We were met immediately by Frank (owner). We were in room 9 (twin beds) Room was as expected. Clean and comfortable. Enjoyed a complimentary continental breakfast (i.e. packaged muffins, donuts, great coffee, juice,etc.) Frank had great information about the places around town. This was a repeat stay and we will return again

No place better

A delightful slice of history. This great little hotel should be everyone's first choice when visiting Ft. Scott, and a reason all by itself to do so. Warm hospitality, comfortable accommodations, and walking distance to everything made it the perfect spot. We'll be back!

Great Historic Hotel!

We had a great time. The owners of this amazing historic hotel were very welcoming and personable. We enjoyed being so close to the shops and restaurants of historic downtown, as well as within walking distance of the historic Fort Scott National landmark. We will definitely be headed back in the future!

The Courtland is lovely and historic with all the modern amenities to make for a comfortable stay. We were traveling with family. Frank made us welcome at check-in and very thoughtfully upgraded one of our rooms so we could be closer to each other. He was very friendly, knowledgable and helpful. Rooms were great- comfy beds, well appointed bathrooms. Quiet, good A/C and nice easy chairs. I wish we had more than one night to enjoy all that Fort Scott has to offer. Hopefully our travels will bring us back this way one day. Thanks, Frank.

Such a unique and classy hotel built In 1906. The customer service was 5 star from start to finish! It’s located in the heart of Downtown Fort Scott and Ownership takes great pride in the property. We enjoyed our stay and when we go back we will be staying there again.

The Courtland owners clearly care about the experience of staying at a 1906 hotel as they are they to help with any need you may have. The hotel is old but the rooms are very nice and comfortable. The room was clean, the bed comfortable, and the area was spacious--very relaxing. There are not a lot of amenities but the hotel is located just off the main street of this small town, so easy access walking to anything you might want. I highly recommend the hotel.

Truly a unique place with history dating back to 1906. The owner is a friendly and helpful host, and will readily tell you about the hotel's history. It was renovated to update it to current customer expectations. Very comfortable. If a long flight of stairs is not for you, then this may not be for you. Otherwise go for it.

Loads of charm, great location

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect, the host friendly (albeit quite talkative), the breakfast was a good start in the day, and the place had loads of charm. Worth improving we found the condition of our room, which felt very small and had outdated decoration (we had one with a full-size bed) However, we saw other rooms (with larger beds) that were in much better condition.

Location is great, right downtown, walking distance to restaurants, brewery, shopping and the historic Fort Scott. Very nice old hotel built in 1906, quite a piece of history in Fort Scott. The hotel although old has been lovingly cared for and maintained to a high standard. We stayed in room #10 which was small but adequate, bathrooms have been added to the rooms which take up some space. The original hotel had a common toilet room only. The host, Frank, was very gracious, informative and attentive. He is also a great historian for the surrounding Kansas and Missouri areas as well as Fort Scott. For those travelers who like a bit of history and enjoy staying in older historic hotels this one is highly recommended.

Enjoyable

Couldn't have had a more enjoyable stay! The hotel was clean, updated, and charming, with the feel of an era gone by. We enjoyed being able to stroll around downtown without having to drive anywhere. Fort Scott is also within walking distance. Saltwater taffy in the lobby is the best! :)
