We were quite pleased with our stay here. The room was nice with a comfortable king size bed. Decorated in a nice style. the employes were very nice as well. Breakfast was good as well served in a spacious room that used to be the Principal's Office. They have a little reading room stocked with books. We wandered around the... More

My husband and I stayed at Benham Schoolhouse Inn mid September. We spent a night in the Honeymoon Suite (room number 1960.). It has a king size bed and large jacuzzi tub. It is a very small and quite town but we loved the stay. We loved the mountains although we didn't see any bear. We also loved Portal 31... More

Located in the old coal town of Benham, Kentucky, the School House Inn functioned as a school from 1926 to 1961. In 1992, it was turned into a hotel. The setting of the Inn helps you to visualize of the early 1900's Hollywood’s movies. Both the aspects of old school and residence hall are brought together to offer you one... More

We love quirky places! Our stay was a step down memory lane even though we didn't go to school here. The blocks in the building were the same as my childhood school. Check in was the office. The hallways looked like school hallways lined with lockers. However, the rooms were very up to date and like any hotel. Bed was... More

I don't know how things are now but I stayed at the Inn some years ago. I had the first room on the right after making the left turn in to the main hallway. It was the size of the original classroom. It was a somewhat hot day and the classroom was so cool and the entire place so quiet... More

I was stunned by the number of positive comments in the log book, as well as the number of thank you cards pinned to the wall. If all of those reviews were here online, it would probably be at least a 4.8 star hotel. There is something slightly weird in the rows of dark-green lockers, hollow corridors and the thought...

Stayed at the Schoolhouse Inn and enjoyed it immensely. Benham, in the mountains of Southeast KY near to its sister cities of Cumberland and Lynch, is sort of a place out of time. The "Schoolhouse" was indeed built as a school in the heyday of coal mining in this area although nearby that has ceased (the railroad tracks are even... More

The Benham School House Inn allows you to experince something different than you average stay at any old hotel. I definitely have never stayed in any place like this before but I would say I was pleasantly surprised by my stay here. The inn keeps this old schoolhouse's fascinating history alive very well, with the room setup and layout of... More

The Benham School House Inn is a wonderful attraction. The Old School House has been converted into an inn. When you walk down the hall it still smells like a school house. The gym serves as a meeting room and informal dining area. The rooms are large and the furnishing are lovely. Chairs line the old hallways and are positioned... More
