Partner and I stayed here recently, and were very happy with our stay. The customer service was excellent (1 star less for the limited breakfast for non-pork eaters), and the rooms and interior decor were beautifully warm and quaint: A true slice of time, captured. Nichole was incredibly helpful and welcoming. I had been to the small town of Blackwater before, but during the summer; 1 star less on "location" for the very limited stores open on Dec 20th (only the coffee shop and the diner open. All museums/stores were closed for the winter, FYI). Surprisingly pricey for the night stay, but the interior design and the rooms are one-of-a-kind, and the customer service was spot-on, making the price worth it.

My family and our neighbors stayed here while visiting the Missouri State Fair last weekend and enjoyed this place so much! It has been beautifully renovated to its former glory and is like taking a step back in time! The breakfast was wonderful too! We will definitely be staying here again and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to stay here!

Best kept secret in a small MO historic town. This little boutique hotel is so sweet. Nichole is such a wonderful friendly host. She runs a fine establishment and exceeds all expectations. Home cooked breakfast with biscuits a real treat. Can’t beat this little charmer! Thank you so much Nicole we will be back! ❤️Room #7 is wonderful and cozy. Everything clean and orderly. Nice small table with two chairs and a lovely queen size bed.

Beautiful, pristine historic Inn. Accommodating and friendly staff. Very cute old Town. Right next to railroad track makes the old hotel seem even more time period appropriate.Each room has its own bathroom and historic furnishings. Definitely recommend! We want to visit and stay again!

We enjoyed our second stay at the Iron Horse Hotel. It's rich history is nestled in an idyllic setting. From the welcoming front porch to the opulent parlor, you feel you've stepped back in time when craftsmanship was truly showcased in every detail. The beautiful staircase, archways, unique antiques, brick & stone walls, clawfoot tubs, intricate crown molding and courtyard are perfectly balanced with luxury, artistry and comfort. We met a lovely couple staying on their way to Colorado who seemed to enjoy their stay as much as we did. They, too, were taking in all the amenities of it's quint uniqueness. We also enjoyed chatting with the general manager, Nichole, she was beyond gracious and accommodating to each of us. On Saturday morning we had to hurry to MU, otherwise, we would have enjoyed satisfying our tastebuds with the complimentary breakfast. The aroma was definitely tempting. Our stay was perfect and we hope to enjoy the picturesque peacefulness again.

Stayed here the night that we went to see a production at The Lyceum in Arrow Rock A wonderful hotel....full of history. Very clean. The owner was super nice. Breakfast the next morning was included and consisted of eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, juice, and coffee...delicious. There were several trains in the night that passed very close...the hotel provides ear plugs to sleep, but it really didn't bother us at all. We selected room #7...ground floor and the only room on that level. We had a door that led to a very nice patio area. Overall, a very pleasant stay... we'd do it again.

My family stayed at this lovely, railroad-themed hotel and enjoyed the warm hospitality of the manager, Nichole. She was accommodating of our pet dog, well versed in the nearby attractions, and offered around-the-clock contact and support as needed. The hotel itself is beautifully preserved and renovated, and is certainly a jewel of Blackwater.

Didnt stay at the hotel but the town is a delight, its not far off the interstate so you should stop in and soak up some small town mid america charm.

A beautiful, peaceful and interesting place to stay. Nicole is an amazing cook. Definitely worth driving a little out of the way for.
