“Very relaxing, very clean, very comfortable!”

My first experience at The White Rose Inn. I stayed in the Romantic Suite.
I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the whole property. Breakfast was fresh fruit with yogurt, ham and cheese omelet and strawberry bread.
The bed was comfortable, with down pillows (6!) and comforter. I toured all of the rooms and all were clean and decorated like the past. (with modern conveniences!) Emporia is a quaint, friendly town as is lucky to be the home of this beautiful Bed and Breakfast. Thanks Lisa! We'll be back!

“The best hotel in Emporia”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2004

people found this review helpful

It is the best hotel in Emporia Kansas. I grew up visiting my grandmother in Emporia and it is by far the best choice. So if you are going to Emporia for whatever reason that maybe (there is nothing to do there) then you might as well go with the White Rose. Unless you like to stay in old moldy Holiday Inn's or other weird hotels i have never even heard of.

“A refuge of calm”

I stayed at White Rose during my interview for a position at ESU. Academic interviews are long multi-day affairs and the White Rose was a perfect refuge from the rigors of interviewing.
It was a perfect place for a calming break. I would highly recommend White Rose to anyone visiting Emporia.

“An Oasis”

I simply love this B&B. Each time I stay here, I discover another wonderful room refreshingly full of character. It is evident that the hosts, Sam and Lisa, have lovingly cared for and furnished this place.
They are so accommodating and never intrusive. Every time I take a trip through Emporia, I plan my driving and route so that I can stay overnight at White Rose Inn again.

“White Rose, We Love You”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 August 2003

people found this review helpful

This is a wonderful bed and breakfast place! I am here to defend it.
The thing I love about bed and breakfast places is how much quieter they are and the old fashioned flavor of these houses. One cannot here the people or t.v. in the next room like at a motel. I, for one, will never stay at a regular hotel any more. B &B's are so much better and the ambience at this place is great. White Rose Inn made me fall in love with the B & B concept. I'll never be the same again! We stayed in a kitchenette and they have coffee, popcorn, even dishes and utensils to use. It is great! Beautiful antique furnishingsand even a porch swing!
