My most recent stay was May 26, 2008 on my way back to California after having a one-man photo show in Seymour, Indiana. I traveled on to Iowa to photograph Quilt Barns, and on to Mt. Rushmore. Previous to our stay at the Depot Inn and Suites, we toured and stayed one night in nearby Hannibal, MO. My wife liked... more

The Depot Inn is one of those rare experiences where everything is perfect. The rooms are both unique and comfortable. The staff pleasant and accommodating and the price is definitely right. I would recommend the Depot Inn to anyone looking for hotel space in the area. more

As an outside sales person I have traveled throughout Missouri, Kansas and Arkansas. As a guest having a soft bed, computer access and quiet surrounding are of the most importance. I love staying there, its my favoite place to stay away from home. I would even rate this room twice as nice as the room I stayed in at the... more

I came out to take care of some business in La Plata and I must say, if there is a hotel that would be considered top class...this is it! The rooms and woodwork are absolutely beautiful! It has a nice indoor heated pool, and best of all if you are a train enthusiast , there is a building that faces... more

I am a speaker and frequent traveler. I first learned of The Depot Inn from a trusted friend who lives near it. I “checked it out” on a driving trip to see fall colors, loved it and have gone back two more times. I know “good” when I experience it, and this place is OUTSTANDING! Each time I return I... more

Great place to stay. Located in rural town but minutes from Kirksville and Macon. The rooms are very nice and are a great value compared to hotels in the surrounding towns, and Depot Inn's rooms are larger and cleaner. The history in the hotel is interesting and fun to learn. Great place to take children if they are interested in... more

We stay at this hotel when we visit our daughter at college in nearby Kirksville. It is actually about 10 miles away, and we could stay closer, but it is worth the short drive to stay at this hotel. We honestly sleep better there than at home! The beds are just about the most comfortable I've ever slept in, including... more

I have stayed now twice at Depot Inn & Suites, for a small convention that gathers each year in La Plata, Missouri to honor author Lester Dent (writer of the "Doc Savage" stories) who lived there much of his life. Rarely have I had such wonderful accomodations, interesting surroundings in the facility (the place is a train memorabilia museum!) and... more

The owners of La Plata's Depot Inn are Tom and Kelly Marshall. In the few days I stayed there, I came to think of them and their staff as friends. If you come in by Amtrak train as I did, someone will meet the train at the station and drive you the short distance to the Inn. Walking into the... more
