Guest Reviews
This is the nicest and most accommodating B&B I’ve ever stayed in. Breakfast every morning was delicious and all homemade. Elise, the owner, is so friendly and such a delight to talk to and she knows all the history about the inn. I throughly enjoyed my stay there.

Absolutely beautiful accommodations and a great Versailles location. Everything is curated with such great care to detail, from the beautiful rooms to the amazing breakfast (complete with careful attention to dietary restrictions and use of top quality ingredients!). We highly recommend A Storybook Inn for your next visit to the Bluegrass!

Beautiful, relaxing place with spectacular breakfasts! We stayed in the master suite in the Huntsman Chase Guesthouse and it was amazing. We had access to a lovely kitchen/dining/living room area with fireplace, back porch with a grill, front porch with a swing and rocking chairs and a cute outdoor cat! We loved sitting on the front porch each afternoon to read!

We have been privileged to stay at Storybook Inn for 15 years. Elise is the most caring, intelligent and amazing innkeeper and person. Everything shows how much she truly loves all she and her staff do. If you ever have the chance to stay in her inn you will feel the same way we always do. A little bit of heaven on Earth
