Monmouth Historic Inn & Gardens was built in 1818, and is a National Historic Landmark. As a charter member of Southern Living's Hotel Collection, Monmouth is the perfect choice for travelers seeking an authentic southern travel experience. Wake up each morning to the aroma of a full Southern style breakfast, then take a tour of the magnificent mansion before exploring the grounds and all 26 beautifully landscaped acres. As the sun sets on the picturesque surroundings, relax on the veranda with a Mint Julep and complimentary hors d'oeuvres. In the evening, enjoy fine dining at the award winning "Restaurant 1818" in the antebellum home. As the end of the day draws near, retire to one of the 16 luxury suites or 14 elegantly appointed rooms, where a private bath, turned down bed, and sweet dreams await!

We had a wonderful stay. The staff were over the top nice and helpful. We ate in the 1818s restaurant which was excellent. The grounds were gorgeous and the room’s amazing. It was a nice and peaceful setting. Lynne took great care of our group.

We stayed here for 3 nights and the room or rather suite was not suitable at all. The wifi was non existent; poor water supply, no fridge; the door of the shower cubicle did not close properly; the place looked dirty and dated. We had breakfast and it was very poor and of bad quality. Worst of all the two waitresses behave as though they own the place, the talk loudly, are rude to customers and they are totally and utterly unprofessional. We decided to go to the local supermarket and buy food to eat. The food at the restaurant in the evening, although very expensive, was of good quality but the waitress looked disgusted as if she did not want us there. All in all, find another place.

Note: I sent this review to the owners a few months ago and did not receive a response. Therefore, I'm posting it here. I recently stayed at the Monmouth Historic Inn and Gardens and am writing to express my disappointment with the experience. Having read numerous reviews of your property subsequent to my visit, I have noted that you expressed annoyance at posters who did not address their dissatisfaction directly to you. Therefore, I am extending to you the courtesy of writing to you personally. Please note that my reservation was made under another name. Our meal at 1818 was the best part of our stay. Portions of my dish (blackened redfish) were excellent, although it was overly salted. The biscuits were phenomenal. The service was somewhat amateurish. Breakfast was mediocre, mainly because our food was lukewarm when served. Again, the biscuit, although not as good as the one at dinner, was quite tasty. The service was friendly and okay for the casual environment. I understand from your online comments that you are putting a lot of money and effort into the hotel's upkeep. Unfortunately, it's not enough to justify the rates you charge nor your description of “luxury lodging.” Our room was grossly overpriced and misrepresented. Here are a list of reasons: 1)Neither the door to the room nor the door to the bathroom would close unless locked. 2)The floor lamp in the room was malfunctioning. Since there were only two other sources of light in the room, other than the bathroom lighting, the room was too dark. 3)Water in the bathroom would not get hot and was only lukewarm when turned all of the way up. 4)The bathroom was almost too small to turn around in. 5)Although we left the “Clean Room” door tag on the knob, our room was not cleaned. We were given a plastic bag with bath towels and a roll of toilet paper. Note that it did not include hand towels, replacements for any of the used cups or bathroom amenities. It also did not include a replacement for the colored wash cloth which was supposed to be used for makeup removal. These things alone indicate that this is not a 4-star property. 6)Upholstery on the chairs was threadbare and dirty. 7)Floor rugs next to the bed were industrial, not at all in keeping with the historical décor. 8)I only noticed one concession to the ADA. I did not see any handicap parking, ramps, and many of the steps did not have any railings. I also found these things disappointing: 1)It was surprising that the room did not have a ceiling fan. However, the AC was quite efficient. 2)The gift shop had a mediocre selection. My husband and I stayed at your property a few years ago and thought it was excellent then. That is why we went back with another couple. However, I was embarrassed by the decline and apologized to them for recommending it to them.

By far the worst hotel in our trip across the US. The hotel is not historic it is simply old, tired and dirty. We stayed in a deluxe room in the Garden Cottages, which smelt damp on arrival. The curtains were stained and dirty, the thick dust on the material ‘swags’ over the bed was visible from the door, the lower mattress on the bed was uncovered and stained, the dirt and dust on the skirting boards, dado rails, blinds and window was awful. I don’t even want to think about the blanket or bedspread. On the plus side, the cocktails in the bar were fantastic and the host was lovely. Dinner in the restaurant was fun, the steak was excellent. Breakfast was terrible. We spent as little time as we could in the room, never felt particularly welcome, and left the following morning.

The hotel is impressive at first sight. Historic and in pleasant landscaped grounds. Our arrival at reception appeared to be an inconvenience. Southern hospitality appeared to have evaporated. We were only staying one night by way of a stop over but would have asked to change room or indeed moved hotel had our stay had been for longer. The room was tired and in need of refreshing or at the very least a deep clean. There were no coffee making facilities. Coffee was available at Reception in the words of the receptionist “if there’s any left”. We discovered there was a bar on site - we were not told. The restaurant 1881 is ok - not anywhere near the quality or class that some reviews make out. The food isn’t anything much to write home about. Breakfast was appalling. The food was awful. The service and attitude of the server even worse - rude beyond compare. Overall my advice would be if this is the best Natchez has to offer I would stay in one of the many other towns along the trace.

This is our 4th visit to Monmouth and we’re never disappointed. Although some of the rooms need some refreshing, it’s just a wonderful spot to stay in Natchez. The grounds are gorgeous and the breakfast each morning is fantastic. Wonderful and helpful staff.

Have to say was a little disappointed. Had expected a bit of classic, historic, luxury here but needs some investment - becoming a little tired. When we arrived there was a power cut - it was disappointing but that's life! What we could have done with, however, was a little more information - no-one seemed to know what was going on and, in the absence of air con, it would have been nice to have been offered a drink/glass of water - even if it wasn't icy cold! We were just left to our own devices. Thankfully, the issue was resolved later on and when we returned from town the air con was back on and we had dinner in the restaurant in the evening. The meal was good but not exceptional (which I was hoping for)! We took up the offer of the free tour of the house the next day and that was enjoyable and we then learned there was a bar in the house! Why did nobody tell us about this?! Some lost revenue there for sure... The other thing I have to mention - albeit reluctantly - was the service at breakfast. There were two ladies on duty. One of them advised us to read the menu "and make sure you read the bottom line - that's the most important one"! This was the sentence that advised guests that gratuities were not included. If that wasn't rude enough, the waitress then went on to have a "giggle" with a couple of other guests about what the English were like in this regard! Looking back, I don't know why my husband and I didn't get up and walk out at that point and make a complaint. Perhaps because that's not the British way...needless to say, for this reason alone, we would not return.
