My husband and I were one of six couples that had the pleasure of staying at the Rose Hill Inn bed and breakfast for a long weekend on February 18 and 19. We had never stayed at a B&B before and did not know what to expect. Well, we were blown away by the lovely accommodations and the wonderful Southern hospitality we were shown at the Rose Hill Inn!
We had the pleasure of staying in Miss Lucie's room and it featured a lovely four-poster bed and a bathroom so wonderful we never wanted to leave! Throughout the weekend, everyone in our group continued to comment on the loveliness of the accommodations and how we could not believe how they had thought of every little detail to make things perfect! Our group of 12 can be quite boisterous, and we kept apologizing, but the Innkeepers, Sharon and Emiel, were very gracious and said they loved to have the house filled with our laughter. It was wonderful that they were so accommodating!
The last item I must mention is the tantalizing breakfasts we were served each morning. Oh my goodness, Sharon really knows how to cook! On Sunday morning we were served a feast of fresh fruit, banana stuffed French toast, ham, and chili relleno eggs. Everything was delicious! The second morning we dined on fresh fruit, homemade muffins, bacon, and a wonderful egg and spinach casserole served in a heart shaped dish! Did I mention the attention to every detail?! There were also freshly baked goodies in our room each day so the house was always filled with delicious aromas!
In conclusion, I cannot give high enough praises for the Rose Hill Inn bed and breakfast! The historic home and the rooms are beautiful and well preserved with gorgeous antiques. The Innkeepers make you feel so welcome, like you are visiting with relatives. I would HIGHLY recommend the Rose Hill Inn as your first choice for a bed and breakfast if you are visiting the Lexington area. In fact, we were so impressed that our group has already booked President's Day weekend again in 2007!
