The Sherman is conveniently located within walking distance to a coffee shop, a bar/grill restaurant and some little shops. Free parking is just across the street. The friendly staff was efficient and welcoming. All guest rooms are on the second floor (staircase only, no elevator). This historic hotel has been upgraded for modern convenience. The rooms were clean and comfortable and quite cute. The bathroom had a beautiful walk-in shower. Note there is no in-room fridge or microwave so plan accordingly. The only reason I didn’t give this property a 5-star review was because it had no operating bar or restaurant. The facilities were there and quite dramatic. I was told the dining should be resumed soon. I can see how it might be difficult to run a fine dining restaurant in such a small town. Overall, I loved the quaintness and plan to return again to enjoy this fine hotel.

It met my needs-'clean, quiet and comfortable with an old wprld charm. It would've been nice to have had a list of local restaurants, grocery, etc in the room along woth a mini fridge. The clerk was friendly and explained the procedure to get in/out when no one was available

Our choices in hotels is usually hit and miss. Once we stepped inside, my husband and I were amazed by the architecture. The beautiful dark wood and the old smell was what intrigued me. The smell wasn't bad, it actually brought back great memories of my grandparents basement. They were rock hounds and had turned it into a shop to sell the items they made. The room was so comfy and inviting. The service was excellent! If you're looking for a great place to get away from life, this is it!

Quaint boutique hotel with lots of history

Boutique hotel, right in the heart of Batesville. Walkable to some restaurants, a nice coffee shop, and other businesses. Beds are new and comfortable. I enjoyed meeting the owner and one of the partners and hearing about the history of the hotel.

Clean and classy!

The hotel is spotless and well maintained. I don't look for frills and luxury when choosing a hotel. Cleanliness and comfort are what I'm interested in. The Sherman in is a no frills hofel that was immaculate and well maintained. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There is no elevator and all guest rooms are on the second floir. This didn't affect our stay but would if you were disabled. Plenty of SAFE parking is available and convenient to the hotel. This was a very enjoyable stay!

This is a very old hotel that has been renovated. You can tell because the sprinkler system pipes are seen overhead. That leads to the unique charm of it however.

Historic Sherman Inn on a Snowy December Day

Staying in the historic Sherman Inn in December was completely delightful, and a light snowfall this morning only added to the Christmas charm! Our room was sparkling clean, as was the bathroom. Simple, elegant decor, with wonderful black and white vintage photographs of Batesville throughout the inn. We enjoyed walking through the town, seeing all the beautiful old red brick architecture and twinkling lights.
