Reviews
Whiskey Mansion has a near-perfect average of 4.5 owl eyes from eight TripAdvisors, and an Outstanding rating from six BedandBreakfast.com users:
- Absolutely gorgeous historic bed and breakfast-- beautiful decor and furnishings in the common rooms and the bedrooms. We used it as a hotel, but this would be a beautiful place to have an event. The breakfast was to die for, and included local ingredients such as honey and eggs-- the french toast was amazing!! – hungrybabies, TripAdvisor
- Just stayed here over the weekend and had a great time. St Joseph is an American Victorian architectural treasure and I stayed here without a car and walked the neighborhood instead which contains many wonderful Victorian buildings. – Moe91, TripAdvisor

About Whiskey Mansion Bed and Breakfast
Before famed architecture firm Eckel & Mann won the competition to design Saint Louis's new city hall, it drew up the plans for the building that would become Whiskey Mansion Bed and Breakfast in Saint Joseph, located in northwest Missouri. Built in 1885, the mansion has since been artfully restored, though it still maintains some of its turn-of-the-century elements. With its sitting rooms dressed in golden wallpaper and red-velvet couches, it has a distinct Gothic feel. The building’s charming Old-World vibe attracted the makers of the 2008 film Bonnie & Clyde vs. Dracula, who used the mansion as a set.
The house features a grand parlor, formal dining room, music room, and library. Victorian touches can be found throughout the house, especially in the six guest rooms. Each is individually decorated with an antique wooden bed and has a private bathroom with a pedestal sink and clawfoot soaking tub.
