We celebrated my husband's birthday at the Beall Mansion. He said he felt like an ambassador after the royal treatment we received at the breakfast table in the dining room. The ambiance was just impecable. The food was delicious and fulfilling after 5 courses. We truly enjoyed our conversation with the proprietor "Jim." This experience was worthwhile. Will be returning.

This place is awesome. My fiance and I could not have been happier with the service. I have been to a few five star hotels and they could not hold a candle to the grandeur and artistry of this place. The architecture and the antiques inside of this victorian mansion are reason enough to visit. We got a great deal... More

I had booked a romantic getaway for myself and my wife. We were overwhelmed with the elegance of this beautifully restored historical mansion. We were treated like royalty form the moment we arrived and enjoyed a glass of champagne as we were given a tour. The decor is beautiful and the room was exactly as I had booked online. It... More

Somehow in the booking process they booked me... More

This is not a review of the property as I did not end up staying there or having my wedding there. Essentially, the Beall booked the rooms I was trying to reserve for my wedding weekend while I was waiting for them to send me the special events agreement and never told me. I called Jim and Sandy to book... More

Only a few minutes outside of St. Louis and yet another world entirely. A lovely place to rest and be pampered for any occasion. Jim and his wife truly treat you like a guest.

Four of us who work together chose the Beall Mansion for our getaway weekend. 3 of us had never stayed at a B and B. The home is beautiful inside and out, impeccably clean and decorated to reflect its rich history. There are 5 guest rooms and we chose two that adjoin so we could all congregate. The rooms are... More
