The host, Richard, is knowledgeable about the area and the Alexander Mansion. He is a gracious host and shares all that knowledge with the guests. The 4 course breakfast is to die for, and you wonât need to eat lunch!
Una experiencia inmejorable, Richard es un host increĂble, su atenciĂłn es excelente, el hospedaje es iimpactante, ubicaciĂłn todo, lo sĂșper recomiendo!!!!
Staying at the Alexander Mansion felt like stepping back in time to an era of elegance and warmth. Every piece of furniture and every lamp tells a storyâbut what truly made this stay unforgettable was the hospitality of the 80-something host, a former chef, who graciously prepared a beautiful and heartfelt breakfast ceremony for us.
His kindness and attention to detail gave our journey a sense of home and heartfelt care. Thank you for not only providing a charming place to stay, but for making every guest feel seen, welcomed, and cherished.
This will remain one of the warmest memories of my travels. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone seeking quiet, history, and genuine hospitality. Itâs more than just a B&Bâitâs a soul-soothing experience.
Went on a motorcycle run. With the Wife the flood run absolutely beautiful place a true gem very authentic Alexandria mansion. Very positive experiences made us a breakfast for all the guests. We all sat on together and had a four course breakfast each day. Nicest old man that ran the place. He had regular traditions that he performed for all the guests canât tell you the secrets.
Our experience was absolutely perfect. Richard, the Innkeeper, was an amazing host. He gave us great recommendations around town for dinner and there were many wonderful touches included in the stay. We also got to learn a lot about the house. The breakfast was phenomenal. Richard goes above and beyond for everyone who stays at the mansion. I cannot emphasize enough what a pleasure it was to stay here.
My wife and I decided on a weekend getaway on short notice. We enjoy touring old mansions and so we were delighted when we came across the Alexander Mansion while doing a google search of nearby bed and breakfasts (We live in Minneapolis). The check-in with Richard was fun and easy. Richard provided several dinner recommendations and made our reservation once we decided where we wanted to go. Our accommodations were clean, comfortable, and well designed. The mansion was a step back in time. Richard provided an excellent four course breakfast. We are excited to return as soon as possible. We plan on bringing friends next time to enjoy the space.
It eas amazing. The bed and breakfast is beautiful. The room is gorgeous. It truly is a mansion . Richard is a wonderful host. He makes the best breakfast. Meeting the other guests and joining them for breakfast is very special too. Richard serves the home made fresh breakfast and it is like stepping into another era. I will definitely come back.
Spent 12 nights here whilst visiting family in the area. We agree with other guests that the Alexander Mansion House offers an âexperienceâ in an historic building. We had the Alexander Durante room which was beautiful. Every night we would have a ânight capâ and the room would be waiting for us with lamps turned on and the radio on. Breakfast is very much a part of the experience here. We got to meet and talk to / have breakfast with so many other guests over our time here which really added to the experience. Cannot rate this property highly enough. It made for a much needed break and a wonderful Christmas. We will be returning very soon! Thank you to our wonderful hosts x
This is a must see for anyone who wants a cozy place with much history. The home is beautisul, and Richard provides service that is unmatched in my experience. The breakfast that is provided in the morning is massive and enjoyable. If you are planning a trip to Winona and want to have an experience as opposed to just lodging, I think you will be very pleased to stay here.
We stayed in Maryâs Room (as my wife is named Mary!). It was perfect! Richard and David were excellent hosts. Very accommodating and gave us a warm welcome and send off. Wine when we arrived (welcome after a long days driving!) and sherry at bed time! Very relaxing and the house is magnificent. Highly recommend!
This is a wonderful property! But what makes it even better is the host, Richard! He was so friendly, helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was amazing! Do yourself a favor and allow yourself plenary of time to enjoy the experience.
