The Augusta Rose B&B


  • Inn Details

    The Augusta Rose Bed and Breakfast was built in 1891 as a single family home. It is located on a corner lot surrounded by a neighborhood of beautiful old homes. The house itself is a Queen Anne style Victorian with a turret and two small balconies. It features a large stained glass window in the staircase landing and smaller stained glass windows in the living and dining rooms. The woodwork in the main floor is ornate and well preserved. In the summertime, the wraparound front porch is the most popular "room" in the house. It reflects a slower, more gracious time, when neighbors walking by would (and still do) stop for a minute to chat. The second floor of the house is dedicated only to the Bed & Breakfast. It has four guest rooms, five bathrooms and two sitting rooms. The bedroom furnishings are primarily family heirlooms.

    Latourelle is named for a waterfall in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon. It is a small waterfall compared to many of the others and is almost hidden. But the view and the pristine splendor is worth the extra time. Like the waterfall, the room is an almost hidden treasure. The restful earth tones, queen size iron bed and wonderful old rocking chair are sure to ease the worries of the day and refresh your spirit. The attached bath has a tub/shower. Wireless internet access available.

    The antique oak dresser and queen bed and the old, white, twin iron bedstead tell of a room that has enjoyed the presence of many families. It is the largest of the rooms, with space for a rollaway as well. The white eyelet, blue roses and the black and white photos developed from glass plate negatives from a long-ago studio will remind you of Grandma's house. The beautiful hardwood floor is original to the house. The private bath for this room is a few short steps down the hall. Wireless internet access available.

    We felt like we were staying at home. So clean, and so fresh. Did not at all have that grimy feeling you sometimes get in hotels. Ed and Mary were wonderful hosts. They left us to ourselves, but chatted pleasantly during breakfast and saw that all of our needs were taken care of. The sitting room down the hall was an added bonus. It was a great little nook to play board games, read, or drink coffee in. We would definitely visit again.

    We just returned home from being on the road for two and a half weeks. Many states...many hotels...and one bed and breakfast, The Augusta Rose in Napoleon, Ohio. Our stay at The Augusta Rose Bed and Breakfast, with Ed and Mary, was by far one of the genuine highlights of our entire trip...we are still talking about it. We came away feeling like family and can't wait to stay with them again! Peter and Jenny

    Since we had never experienced a bed and breakfast before, I have to say that the stay was definitely on to remember. There were several of us from different states meeting up for a wedding and it was great to be able to enjoy this with them. The sitting areas made it perfect to get together without the distraction of the usual hotel setting. Mary and Ed were most attentive to our needs and Mary is such a excellent cook. I would highly reccomend this establishment to family and friends, just so they save me a room. HeeHee.

    I recently returned to the area to attend a high school reunion. As it turned out, one of the highlights of the trip was staying at the Augusta Rose. This is a beautiful Victorian home that is lovingly cared for by Ed and Mary Hoeffel. The location in Napoleon allows one to walk to the charming and historic downtown. We stayed in the Shore, a room at the end of the hall that has a kingsize bed and private bath. The rainy weekend we experienced allowed us to fall asleep listening to the rain on the roof and we slept wonderfully on the very comfortable bed. Our room (and the entire home) was spotlessly clean. Our hosts, Ed and Mary, are wonderful people that attend to your every need and Mary prepared outstanding food for our breakfasts. There is no question that if we return to the area, we will stay at the Augusta Rose again. I highly recommend this to anyone that is visiting the Napoleon area. I have no doubt that if you stay here, you will want to return.


    A gem in the middle of nowhere.

    I stayed in the Shore, and enjoyed a king bed, towel warmer, desk, wi-fi, bath robes. This is the closet lodging to the Campbell Plant, and for the price seems to be the nicest. The breakfast was varied every single day I was there, and my five day stay went smoothly. There's a community room with dining room table,mini fridge, microwave, water jug, and couch. The porch also looks out onto a quiet residential street.
