The Barrister Bed and Breakfast is your home away from home in historic downtown Helena. Located across the street from the awe-inspiring double spire Cathedral of St. Helena (the seventh largest Gothic Cathedral in the U.S.A.), this Victorian mansion has been heartfully restored to perfection. Your hosts Nick and Liane Jacques ensure your stay with them provides the friendliness and... More

This is a great inn and our stay was great. Our room was comfortable and well appointed, and the total atmosphere of this wonderful mansion is warm, inviting, and interesting. The innkeeper is extremely hospitable and we enjoyed the location. More

Well appointed, comfortable rooms, historical yet with all the conveniences. The owner Nick and sister Lara very welcoming, accomodating, full of information about Helena as they grew up there. Walking distance from historic downtown"Last Chance Gulch" and across the street from a beautiful cathedral, yet very quiet. A good strolling area. Added bonus of wine in the evening and a... More

My husband and I stayed two nights in July 2011. We found the accomodations to be relaxing and comfortable. We do not like pretentious or overly formal environments. We found the Barrister to be exactly what we wanted. We felt as if we were staying with friends. Liane and Nick are great host and do their best to accomodate any... More

We stayed here twice for a night each time, booking two rooms, one with ensuite bathroom, one with a bathroom opposite the corridor. The rooms were full of interesting (in the positive sense) touches and, while the architecture of the house makes for small bathrooms (but allows for lovely, spacious bedrooms). That's the nature of older houses. It was the... More

This was my first time staying in a B&B. Until now, I thought I was more of a Hilton or Hyatt type. We stayed here in part because of a family wedding reception that was to be held on premisis. After about 24 hours of relaxed comfort, I would say that I might have to re-think being a Hilton or... More

I have travelled several times to Helena to visit with family, and have allowed myself the luxury of getting away to this wonderful Bed & Breakfast to rest and relax while there. This is a beautifully decorated Victorian home with large, comfortable bedrooms (I have tried several of them) including excellent beds, well-equipped bathrooms (thirsty towels, powerful blowdryer, excellent water...

An old Victoria home decorated in the style of the period. Comfortable, convenient and a good breakfast. The host, Nick, was helpful and friendly without being intrusive. We were a group of 8 that fully booked the place. More

I stayed at the Barrister just one night on a driving trip east and of the 5 b&b's that I stayed in, this was my favorite. Nick is a wonderful host and interesting to talk to. The b&b was within walking distance of places to eat. The room was lovely, quiet and comfortable, and breakfast was great. I arrived in... More

I'll start by saying that I'm not really a B&B'er. And we stayed just one night so maybe I didn't get the full experience. The room was cold and hard to get up to temperature, the bathroom was cramped and the pillowcases were clean but definitely old. It is across the street from the cathedral which is brighly lit all...
