Check in was easy, with the gentleman waiting to assist us and show us to our. Room. Plenty of parking behind the house. The bed was very comfortable. The place was clean and tidy. Close to the ABA Shrine Center, you could easily walk it if the weather was nice. The French toast was the best I had in my life. We will be staying there again. read more

Not overly friendly and quite expensive. Cute place though. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

My daughter and I spent two nights in the Benton Room in July 2023. Very spacious and cute room, with lots of interesting corners and an awesome clawfoot bath with lots of hot water. The house was amazing, so beautifully kept and decorated, as were the grounds. The staff were extremely friendly, and the breakfasts were tasty. Thank you for making our stay so special! read more

When my hotel room was canceled before I arrived in town, I was blessed to find the Walnut Street Inn. Superb staff, excellent Chef and my wonderful room made for a relaxing time. It felt like I traveled back in time, but with all the amenities of today. Highly recommend when you are coming to Springfield, Mo. Across from the convention center and near the Downtown. read more

So, my husband and I came here for our anniversary, and the owner met us outside and walked us to our cozy room! It was super cute. My only complaint is that we paid an extra $50 for the jewel room and the tub couldn't be used, due to the plug not working. Staff is super friendly, and the breakfast is phenomenal read more

This B&B has a special place in my heart. My fiancé proposed to me here in our quaint little room with the rose petals on the floor and strewn across the bed, candles lit all around, and champagne and chocolates on the table. Walnut Street Inn definitely created an atmosphere for our unforgettable night. I've been here twice, and will return back every single time we go to Springfield. Skip the hotels and motels forever. Plus the downtown location is perfect ... Restaurants and bars are super close. read more

I love this place. The cost is just a little bit more than some of the area hotel/motels but the experience is more than worth it. After a little confusion over where to park, I found my way to the front door and was warmly welcomed by the staff. I must have arrived at just the right time because the smell of freshly baked goodies was intoxicating. I stayed in the McCann room which felt like a suite. It was spacious and comfortable - filled with unique touches. WiFi service is easy to access and very quick. Surf the Internet surrounded by 19th century furnishings! Breakfast was fantastic. I'd arranged an 8:00 service and was (as usual) running late. I sat down at 8:10 and was immediately presented with a beautiful plate of food. I'm not normally a breakfast person but I made an exception @ The Walnut and was glad I did. minimal complaints: I could have used a full sized ironing board. The shower seemed a little cramped with the old-time narrow bathtub.. That's all. On my next trip to Springfield, I will definitely be staying at The Walnut Street Inn. read more

Thank you for a wonderful stay it was our first B&B stay and would hopefully stay there next year. Breakfast was awesome and the room very comfortable we really enjoyed the conversation with the help and travelers there Blessings til next year Walnut Street Inn was a wonderful stay with their decorated rooms with a bit of period items and the great homemade cookies left every evening to the scrumptious breakfasts we couldn't have asked for more all though we very well could have with attention to detail and awesome customer service we received prior to arriving and during our stay, I would highly recommend this B&B for a stay ity takes you back when families ate to together and enjoyed good conversation read more

Absolutely fabulous! Stayed here for one night on a business trip but next time I plan on staying longer! Lisa is so inviting and kind, it felt like staying with a longtime friend. Breakfast in the morning was hearty and delicious, and the location near the expo center was perfect for work. Appreciated having a beautiful and historic place to stay-nothing like soaking in a claw foot tub after working all day! Can't wait to be back. read more

It's been a few months since I last was in Springfield, but I can't get this place off my mind. It may be because I keep referring it to all my coworkers traveling to our MO facility. Walnut Street Inn is my favorite B&B I've ever stayed in. They have customer service down to a science and are more welcoming to business travelers than one might expect! They even have a great corporate pricing and mid-week pricing scale that makes them a sensible travel option. Plus, when I mentioned I was heading into the office, they sent me to the office with some homemade cookies! Now that is a great way to start a busy workday! Situated within walking distance to the heart of downtown, this B&B offers both a convenient location and a sense of visiting your loving grandmother's cottage. The breakfasts are unbelievably delicious!! Additionally, it was so nice to be able to choose the time of my breakfast as well as if I wanted to socialize at the dining room table or nosh while I got ready in my room. The rooms are a perfectly B&B: vintage, comfortable, and full of history. Yes, my room had a tub in the middle of it, at it made it that much better! You can tell they take pride in keeping both the authenticity and the quality of the rooms. read more

Gary and his wife were so welcoming to my wife and I who had accidentally booked the wrong weekend when we arrived. He gave us a room at a discounted price so that we would still be able to stay with them for the weekend. The house was conveniently located close to MSU, downtown, and the ball field. Although we only stayed one night it was so relaxing and refreshing. Breakfast was wonderful and the people we met were so nice and interesting. We will definitely stay here again. It is completely worth the little bit extra! Thank you for such an amazing weekend! read more

I have been staying at Walnut Street Inn Bed and Breakfast for many, many years. It has been my family's favorite "home away from home" on many occasions including business conference to sporting events and festivals. Gary and the staff have a gift of hospitality. The Inn is comfortable and welcoming and the food is always delicious. You can count on Gary and the staff for excellent recommendations on dining, shopping and special events. I have stayed in many of the rooms (if not all) over the years. They are all well appointed and each is unique. There is a room for everyone at Walnut Street. read more

This was my first time staying at a B&B and I can't be happier! The staff was very friendly, the breakfast was amazing and it's close to both MSU and downtown. I would definitely want to go back and stay there again next time I go to Springfield. Lisa and Gary were just perfect in every way! read more

The Walnut Street Inn is excellent. I can't wait to go back in warm weather and enjoy the gardens and patio. Excellent breakfast, "Not food, art!" Convenient to everything. Quiet and clean with all of the nice touches. I would recommend The Walnut Street Inn to everyone! read more

Rooms are very well kept and decorated. Comfy and luxurious. Breakfast is wonderful, how can you miss when serving bacon sausage! If you desire to stay at the best B&B in southwest Missouri this is your stop. Location is perfect, close to downtown area, next door neighbor to Missouri State University (go Bears) short drive to bass pro world headquarters and battlefield mall. When in Springfield this is our go to place to stay and it never ever disappoints. Just make the reservation, you know you want to. read more

Walnut Street Inn - Special attention to the details - Hotels Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

Second stay here. The first was exponentially better. Left the Walnut Inn this time after a very small, very cheap breakfast that must have cost them all of a dollar to serve. A Bed & Breakfast should know that their guests expect a fabulous breakfast. We were served 3 dollar sized pancakes and a tiny fruit cup- and I mean tiny. Bacon on the side for the guests who could have meat. I could not, and was offered nothing extra to make up for it. Breakfast was absolutely pitiful. Touched base with the Innkeeper and all he could say was sorry. We'll try to do better next time. When I stay at a B&B, I expect the breakfast portion to make up for a large portion of the cost of my stay. I expect it to be nothing short of sensational. After all, that's what I'm paying for. We paid over $320 for two rooms and feel we were very, very much overcharged for what we experienced here. Note to the innkeeper, Gary: When a guest tells you they were less than satisfied with their experience, DO SOMETHING for them. Offer to make things right. Invite them back with a discount. Say something that feels genuine. In a small city like Springfield, word of mouth goes far. A simple gesture on the part of the innkeeper would have changed our opinion of our experience. I have nothing good to tell others at this point. Unfortunately, we'll never come back. read more

Gary and Lisa are a great team. The both are friendly and really worked with us to make our stay a great memory. We stayed in the McCann room. It was spacious and had a very nice bed and a neat claw foot tub. Our breakfast was nicely presented, tasted great, and had ample portions. It's located within walking distance of a GREAT restaurant called The Avairy. This will be our go to spot when we are in Springfield. I hope that you do also. read more

This was my first time being at a B&B and I gotta say it was a great experience. The staff was friendly & helpful, the food was great, and they provided complimentary soda & water to the guests. I gotta say that I will be back and I recommend this B&B to anyone that is planning on taking a trip to Springfield Missouri. read more

We were guests at Walnut Street Inn for a lovely autumn weekend for a wedding held in the rear yard. The Inn couldn't have been more accomodating! They made an effort to meet the needs and wishes of all guests, and I know the bridal couple were right at home! Breakfasts were delicious. The Inn was very quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the porch to chat with friends, and a kitten who visited from next door! Parking was not a problem. Restaurants were easily accessible. Who knew there were so many good restaurants to try in the area? And Bass Pro has a great way to spend a day! read more

My wife and I spent our anniversary here. It was a fantastic experience. The room was stocked and very clean. Everything from the hot tub to the location made this special. Than breakfast was amazing! Great experience for any couple looking for a getaway without leaving town. read more

Stopped here for the night on a cross country trip from MI to TX. The house was beautiful, our room (the Rosen) was comfortable and spacious, and breakfast was delicious! Definitely a great find! read more

Rosen room cozy, plenty of space, very clean and inviting. Nikki very warm, knowledgable, welcoming. Near decent restaurants was well. Perfect location. read more

Pros:the rooms were clean and the sheets were clean. The place is great if you love old houses. Great location to MO State and the food was good. Quiet and the guest were the best part. Cons: internet was very slow but at least they had it tv's cheap but we did have cable. maybe the tv on wall stand would be more professional, fireplaces are not operation or they do allow you to use them-I guess the owner would have to do some work and maybe it is a fire hazard too. reservations-they made me stay two nights when I booked but in fact, I could of booked the day of the event and maybe got a better rate. Oh that's rights you can't cancel unless it is like least two weeks out. overpriced a little but they could of move me to a better room to be nice but no communication and when we did inquire about upgrade. It was about the future not the present. I asked but she never seem to be a sincere about it. Why would I come back on promises if they don't work with me now! Confused. The house is in serious need of repair esp. on the outside and the deck needs to be worked on. the siding and the gutter are separating and the animals are living in there. The worst thing I was accused by the owner of "seriously messing up a room and making a mess" of course Lisa the manager forgot to tell him that someone used it at the last minute, she apologized but of course he never did. I see a owner who is absent for the most part and does no work around the house, the manager Lisa works a lot of hours. I was confused on the pecking order of management. The house inside does needs a make over. The carpet going outside was black from the dirt and the house itself was need of spending some money and lots of time. At least on paint, cleaning up the yard, caulking, power washing etc...My faucet was in need of repair and the water was not then cold (I understand that). Oh, the windows in my room where sealed shut and maybe nailed. I don't know if this is a fire hazard but I wanted a little air because it is stuffy. No way. Maybe replace the windows it would save thousand in heating and cooling or least sand and repair when you paint them. I love to stay and help out the local establishments but the owner needs to get going on spending more time at this business. I felt like he lived somewhere else and left everything to Lisa and others to do. Great place and look forward to going back but it could use TLC. By the way the birds crap on your cars. The wall in parking lot needs to be rebuilt, what a shame to let it fall apart. read more

The Inn is very cozy and convenient for downtown or university business. Good alternative to University Plaza or Holiday Inn Express and MUCH cheaper. Breakfast was very good and so was the company. Two drawbacks: lots of cable channels but itty bitty tv. Also after a few minutes I was dancing around the shower to hot cold hot cold. That was annoying. Overall very good for atmosphere. read more

We were very pleased with our stay at the Walnut Street Inn over the weekend. We stayed in the McCann room which was very spacious and has lots of windows. The B&B has lovely Victorian era decorations and the staff is very accommodating. Our room had delicious cookies on the nightstand and there were complimentary sodas in the fridge. May in Missouri means tornadoes are possible, so we were woken up by tornado sirens at 2 AM and the innkeeper showed everyone the way to the basement. He was very patient and kind with sleepy, nervous guests. :) The next morning we were served a yummy breakfast of fluffy banana pancakes, fruit and bacon. We'll be staying again the next time we pass through Springfield and we highly recommend it to others. read more

Easy to make reservations. Great communication from owner. Easy to find. Off street parking. Quick check in with gracious, welcoming host. Lovely room. Comfortable bed. Loved the steam shower in the Jordan Room ( now I want one!! ). Delicious cookies. Wonderful large breakfast (veggie omelette topped with delicious chocolate tomato slice, bacon, fresh fruit, toast, fried seasoned potatoes, juice, coffee). Lovely conversation with our host. Gary referred us to dinner 3 doors down- Gilardi's - which was excellent. Great experience!!!!! Stayed September 2016, traveled as a couple read more

I wish there were more stars to give. What a wonderful surprise to find such a charming welcoming place to enjoy an evening and morning. Sure does beat the roadside hotels. The owners were helpful and passionate about sharing the history of their Victorian beauty. The historic district was interesting and inviting. There were literally 50 places to eat within walking distance. The morning homemade breakfast and casual conversations were enjoyed around a large family table. GREAT stop. Worth every penny. read more
