Paducah gem

Lovely B&B ideally situated near downtown Paducah. Very close to the National Quilt Museum and the sewing needle sculpture. Key code entry. Breakfast was delicious. Enjoyed chatting with the hostess Andrea and other guests at the communal table. Room was very clean and comfortable, and enjoyed sitting outside on the balcony for my morning coffee. Hope to stay here again the next time I visit Paducah.

Wonderful place to stay in Paducah

The Respite B &B is located in a beautiful part of town near historical downtown. The room was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. We used breakfast vouchers and enjoyed a delicious breakfast at The Gold Rush Cafe.

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!

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.
