Between the enormous jacuzzi, the luxurious bedding and the in-room fireplace, you may be so relaxed upon leaving the Wharf Street in that you leave your purse behind and don’t realise until you’re three hours away! Fortunately manager Donna (and the USPS) saved the day as surely as she kept us stocked with fresh towels, welcome sweets and Keurig capsules. ||The Inn is more of an AirB&B style place than a B&B; Donna is on hand to get you settled but there is no reception and no services. This isn’t a problem as there are several good places for breakfast in town and Donna is just a text message away if you need any. The building is exquisite and the quality of the renovation is excellent; old world charm plus modern conveniences. We loved our enormous bed … so high it had steps to clamber into … facing an enormous fireplace you could flip on to send the gas licking over the fake logs. Dozing in front of the fire was a rare treat. The bathroom is just as luxurious, with an enormous shower fitted with a big bench area and a jacuzzi big enough for for two. Hermann is a lovely place to visit but, to be honest, hire Room 201, get some food delivered and you could call it a second honeymoon anywhere in the world!||The views across this enormous room … three windows in the bedroom and another three in the bath … all look over the riverfront. The lazy Missouri and its tree-lined shores are lovely to wake up to. The location does come with the Inn’s only drawback, however. With the river comes the train tracks and steady freight traffic. If you’re a light sleeper, these trains can be loud, especially when the location is otherwise blissfully silent. If you think the noise will bother you, bring ear plugs. It’s a small hack to enjoy an otherwise...

Read moreWe visited Hermann at the end of October, wanting to spend a weekend enjoying some Oktoberfest activities, food, and the perfect weather. Looking at places to stay, we saw Wharf Street Inn had just opened and decided to stay a couple nights. Wharf Street Inn is amazing.
Donna talked with us numerous times before our visit and everything was squared away long before the vacation. When we arrived, she was more than accomodating, allowing us to check in early to get our weekend started. She also gave us lots of information about the area, maps, and even gave us coupons to use at some local restaurants.
Wharf Street Inn is in the perfect location, with a great view of the river right out front. Being right next to the business district and the local wineries and breweries made walking anywhere extremely convenient, and the shuttle stop is right around the corner.
The room itself was incredible. It was basically an apartment, with a kitchenette (including microwave and mini-fridge), a huge bed, and a huge bathroom (with a jacuzzi tub), and everything was modern and in pristine condition.
If you have a chance to visit Hermann, you can't ask for a better place to stay than Wharf Street Inn. Thanks to Wharf Street Inn, and especially Donna, for an...
