Garden Manor Bed & Breakfast Inn

This is a lovely old home. There are four nicely appointed rooms upstairs with a very attractive dining room for a group breakfast. There is also a totally private room on the back of the house that over looks the garden. A whirlpool tub completes the tile and tumbled marble bathroom.Your breakfast is brought to you in this room. A very romatic getaway. Judy Barnett is not only a very gracious hostess but also a terric cook. Breakfast is absolutely delicious. Downtown Grapevine offers many walkable activities such as shopping, dining, train excursions and wineries. Check out Judy's special packages on her web site. We have taken her wine tasting package. The winery is down the street from her B&B. You will receive a choice of a appetizer tray and four wines and live music. The courtyard is lovely with its tile work and fountains. We plan to take more of her packages. A stay here will not dissapoint!

The stay at Garden Manor was a splendid one. We chose the Carriage House because it was newly constructed therefore we were one of the first guest in that house. It was so clean, beautiful and the bed so extremely wonderful. We stayed there on New Year's Eve 2011 so a cold wind blew in for New Year's Day 2012 and the bed had a mattress warmer so we were nice and toasty. The service was great. We could not have asked for more.

Celebrated our 25th anniversary through the Garden Manor Dinner and Wine tour special. This was truly a wonderful experience. Judy was very accommodating in arranging to have flowers and double dipped strawberries in the room upon our arrival. The following Wine tour and Dinner for two was a great experience that we would recommend highly. The room was lovely and breakfast the next morning was exceptional. This is definitely a place we would stay again and recommend to friends and relatives.

Found this precious B&B on the internet and reading the reviews was simply my only guide to picking this B&B. Our expectations were far exceeded. Ms. Judy was such the gracious host and the location simply could not have been any better. We were very pleased with our stay and certainly will stay again if our travels take us there.

Went on a business trip and stayed there and loved it so much I took my hubby there a month later to take on a honey trip.Everything about this B and B was wonderful.Loved the breakfast and slept really well.Judy was just wonderful.We will return for sure:)

I had three wonderful nights staying in this inn. The room, the food and Judy hospitality are excellent.

We thoroughly enjoyed our "babymoon" at the Garden Manor B & B. It was fun being walking distance from the cute shops of Grapevine. The food was great, and the inn was so beautiful!

My trip to Grapevine was for business. Unfortunately I did not spend a lot of time at the Inn however the time I did spend there was nice. Judy was a great Inn Keeper. I would recommend that if you are traveling to the area that you stay here.

Judy was very warm and friendly. She made us feel right at home. We loved being able to walk to all of the restaraunts and shops on nearby Main St. The beds were so comfortable that the next morning at breakfast everyone wanted to know what kind of sheets and mattresses she uses.

My wife and I stayed at the Garden Manor Inn for a romantic weekend getaway and had a wonderful time. The Inn is lovely and well-kept, the nearby shopping and dining were excellent, and Judy is a wonderful host (and a terrific cook, too!). The grounds around the Inn are quite nice as well, making it a great place to relax, unwind, and spend time with your significant other. All in all, we were very pleased with our stay and will visit again.

We had a lovely midweek stay at the Garden Manor Bed & Breakfast. The room was lovely (French Country room) with a nice ball in claw bathtub. The bath amenities were of good quality, and the extra bottles of water & coffee/tea making facilities were a plus. Only one block from historic downtown, we were able to walk everywhere. I highly recommend "Cork it" for food and wine. Judy was a peach, and breakfast was delicious. She booked our wine tour for us, and gave us information about the area. Her backyard was gorgeous, and would be fabulous for a wedding or event. There is even a spa across the street. I would return to the B & B anytime!

The location was excellent and was easily accessible. The grounds were very well kept and created a beautiful outdoor atmosphere. It was a little hot that weekend in July but sitting out under the ceiling fans on the porches in the evening was pleasant. The English Rose Suite was very nice, the service was excellent and the breakfast was very good. It was an enjoyable experience and we would certainly go there again.

This is the 2nd time my husband and I have stayed at Garden Manor. We married May 15th of last year and spent our honeymoon weekend here. We absolutely loved it and decided to make it a yearly trip on our anniversary. The Bed & Breakfast is quiet, homey, and extremely comfortable. Judy is fantastic! Aside from being an awesome cook, she helped my husband surprise me with flowers waiting in our room upon our arrival. Grapevine itself is full of things to do. The historic district has lots of cute shops for those that love shopping. It also has dining to satisfy just about anyone. For those looking for a winery, search no more. Garden Manor is centrally located to multiple places to tantalize your pallet.

Perfect location - 5 minute drive from the DFW airport, walking distance from the historical district, restaurants, shops, and wineries. Great rooms, yummy breakfast, incredible porch for sitting outside, relaxing and having a glass of wine.

Top of the line amenities, hospitality, and location. Whenever I go anywhere near the Dallas metroplex, I will be staying at Garden Manor !!!

A wonderful place for a getaway with my girlfriends. The rooms were beautifully decorated and we all enjoyed our experience at Garden Manor. There are porches to sit out on and enjoy the grounds, or to sit and visit, have wine and just relax. I would definitely recommend Garden Manor to anyone that would like a beautiful, quiet and peaceful place to stay!

Our first stay at a b&b. Very beautiful and quiet. Judy was so friendly and personable. I felt as if I was staying at a friends house. So clean! Food was excellent. It was close everything: shops, golf courses, resturants, the lake, and the spa. We will never stay at a hotel again. Will always remember our birthdays here. Rob and Tanya Sikes

perfect location for Gaylord Convention Center - MUCH better value - like being at home. Perfect for stroll to downtown Grapevine and all the shops and restaurants. Rooms large, wonderful balconies, GREAT internet WiFi, Super people - easy to work with - just a totally great time and experience. Will bring my wife next year when we return for same conference.

Garden Manor was very nice, very peaceful and relaxing. We loved the garden. Breakfast was great and we enjoyed visiting with the other guests. I wanted to steal the "white noise machine" next to the bed; the check-in packet we got said it was addicting, and it was! Judy did a great job of balancing meeting our needs with respecting our privacy. I really liked the fact that in many of the reviews I read of Garden Manor, whenever there was a negative issue, Judy personally responded to it and tried to adjust the way she does things to make it better. That's the personal touch you can expect at Garden Manor. If you want to stay in this area, don't think twice about it, just book it. You won't be disappointed.

It is like visiting Grandma's home -the ambience, the coziness and the kind hospitality of Judy and of course, the breakfast esp made for me!The floors do squeak and I was worried I was making a lot of noise but I figured I didn't hear anything from the other rooms so they should not hear me either.It took me time to open the front door but after rereading the detailed instructions, it was a matter of getting the 'trick' to open it. Very nice first time B&B experience.

I truly enjoyed my stay. The Inn is so charming. I have nothing but great things to say about it. The innkeeper is a delight and I enjoyed my conversation with her during breakfast, which was very enjoyable and tasty. I fully intend to go back for another stay.

Several months in advance of our son's rehearsal dinner, wedding and reception in historic downtown Grapevine, I went searching for a B&B that would accommodate our whole family and which we could "take over" for the weekend. Garden Manor B&B in historic Grapevine came as close as I could find. Although there were not quite enough rooms to accommodate the entire extended family, they do have four beautiful double rooms, with period furnishings and each bedroom has its own bathroom; some even have outdoor terraces. My family members who were the LUCKY ones and DID get to stay at Garden Manor had a wonderful weekend. They were especially appreciative of the cleanliness of their rooms and the outstanding, fresh breakfasts provided each morning of their stay. My hope is that my husband and I can get back sone day soon (after my broken leg heals, which kept me from climbing the stairs to the bedroom suites) and take advantage of Judy and Gunther's hospitality. The weekend went wonderfully well for all who stayed at the Inn and thefamily reports I received were all positive. PS: Check to see if other meals besides breakfast, or if any early evening cocktail hour is provided. I am not sure if it is or not.

Garden Manor is a great little gem that is run by Judy, who is warm and friendly, and makes you feel welcome. She also serves a great breakfast, with eggs and bacon and breads and jams and fresh fruit. I felt like a queen. Judy rescued me when I locked myself out of the room at 10 pm, and she did it with a great sense of humor. The location is perfect, a short walk to town, and easy access to the highways and the airport. The rooms were well appointed, charming and comfortable.

The home and grounds were beautiful. Downtown Grapevine is a short walk to a full day of shopping and eating pleasure. The hosts were professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Having a fire in the parlor fireplace on a cool morning made us wish we could stay longer.

We were in Grapevine for a wedding. We almost felt as if we were at home except without chores or responsibilities. We loved the location and were able to walk to the wedding (about 2 blocks at a lovely winery) and all over the charming little town. Lots of interesting shops, restaurants, train ride, old cabin,art, and more. And there is a huge mall just a couple of miles away. The breakfasts at the Garden Manor were wonderful and scheduled when we wanted them. The room was clean and comfortable with a mini fridge stocked with our choices and fabulous free wifii. We would definitely recommend a stay at the Garden Manor Inn.

The Garden Manor Inn - Grapevine was eloquent, easy going, and had an impecable cleanliness to each room! The check in processs was detailed yet self-directed down to the simple step of unlocking the front door. We love the way we were free of the "hustle and bustle" a hotel environment sometimes accompanies. When you arrive you write your desired breakfast time on a board- and the next morning without any cues, you are prepared a scrumptious homemade breakfast. The enitre stay was magical and very well presented. I requested homemade bownies, chocolate dipped starwberries, and roses to be dlevered to our room upon return from our Wine Tour (which was also AWESOME), and "POOF", like magic there was not a sole in sight; howerver, everything was flawless, extremely tasty, and gourmet at an extremely reasonable price. We went on the Shuttle Wine Tour that was a GREAT delight. The upstairs balcony was so peaceful, clean, and accommadating to mental fitness, debriefing, romantic, and so SERENE. relaxation. The room was so clean and historic! The breakfast is the morning is enhanced by a great greeting, homemade vittles, coffee, and fresh orange j The only set back that I encountered were the stairs, I recently had knee surgery and the steep stairs flared up my knee and I had really dismissed that, until my wife ("able knee") encountered the same discomfort. The only other con is that we wished there would have been an "on call" bell hop or concerige to help with our travel bags , provide an option for afternoon lite 0'douvers, or an evening "night cap" service; nothing fancy-but I think it would have brought a very nice touch. The patios were great! We loved the entire experience and we have been reccommending the experience to all of our friends. If it wasn't for the stairs structure, we would have been back already!! Thank you J and Gunther

The Garden Manor is very pretty. The rooms are well furnished. The garden area is quite spectacular. The location is perfect for shopping and dining in historic Grapevine. Although, it is within walking distance of main street Grapevine, the inn has a quiet and secluded ambiance. The innkeeper Judy is very nice and knowledgeable about the Grapevine area. She prepares and serves an excellent breakfast. My sister-in-law and I hope to make this annual visit.

Reconnected with the love of my life, after 20 years apart. It was all very serendipitous, as I blundered upon Judy's wonderful bed and breakfast while surfing the web on my BlackBerry on the way down to Texas from North Carolina. My Darling Scarlett was overwhelmed with my choice of accomodations and we are soon to be married, after too many years apart. Thanks Judy!

What an excellent & relaxing place to stay! It is quiet and private. The breakfast was wonderful. This was our second time staying here. It is conveniently located within walking distance to many restuarants & shopping.

I can't recommend Garden Manor enough! I unexpectedly had to travel over 2,00 miles to Texas because my father had a heart attack while traveling. I found Garden Manor even though the Super Bowl was the next weekend. The owner, Judy, was caring, kind, and so very helpful. My room gave me comfort because it felt like I was home (which I REALLY needed at the time) and the food- WOW. If I ever come to Grapevine for a vacation- I'd stay there for sure! Nancy- Maine

We stayed at Garden Manor for a get away weekend. The room was wonderful. Very quite and relaxing atmosphere. It is within walking distance of historic downtown Grapevine where there is shopping and restuarants. The breakfast each morning was wonderful. I would recommend the Garden Manor B&B to anyone wanting a nice relaxing weekend.

So glad we found you on the internet - we really enjoyed our stay in your B&B. We've stayed in similar places in other cities, but none any better than Garden Manor! Thanks for your hospitality.

Enjoyed a 10th anniversary stay at this beautiful B&B - one of the finest we've ever stayed in (and we've been B&B-ing for 10 years!) Loved the roses in the room and the wine tour package that accompanied our stay. Beautiful home and gorgeous grounds. Walking distance to Grapevine historic district. Book today! Perfect for girlfriend getaway, romantic retreat and more!

My wife and I recently stayed at the Garden Manor, and having never stayed at a bed and breakfast, I had no idea what to expect. We had a wonderful time. Judy and Gunther made us, and the others staying there feel like family. The rooms and beds are great, and we got some of the best nights of sleep in a while. The relaxing atmosphere and old house charms made for a wonderful weekend. We plan to go back and would recommend the Grand Manor to anyone wanting a great time. Donn and Cheryl Sloan

By far and away the best bed and breakfast in Texas. It's a beautiful establishment that feels private even when filled. Extremely clean. It's a convenient walk to all the sites in downtown Grapevine. And the breakfast is always outstanding.

I had a wonderful stay. After traveling for 17 years for business I have decided that Judy and Gunther need to adopt me. What a terrific peaceful, comfortable place to hang your hat. Never wanted to leave.... You must stay here max

Such a wonderful place to spend the night :) We loved the peace and quiet. Judy was so friendly and accommodating. Very clean and beautiful! We had coffee in the garden which was sooo nice and relaxing. Walking distance to downtown was very convenient. We stayed the next night at the Gaylord Texan, and wished we had stayed here instead!

we had two wonderful nights at garden manor in grapevine. thanks to mother nature, we were not able to take our dinner cruise on the black watch sailboat the first night, but did enjoy a sail the following morning. as part of another package the b&b offered we took a winery tour the second evening. judy made all the arrangements and the breakfasts she provided were fantastic. it was like being home, but much more private! the country french room was cozy and inviting and the bed was very comfortable. we walked throughout downtown numerous times and our favorite place was the bakery on main street....real italian coffee and awesome sandwiches! we even took in a movie at the historic palace theater! we will be back!

Very nice accommodations. Beautifule grounds and rooms were well appointed. Convenient to the DFW airport and walking distance to everything in Grapevine, which is filled with wonderful restuarants, fun bars and wineries, as well as terrific live music.

we stayed there on 7/17/10. we would go back. no complaints at all. room-clean and comfy. grounds- beautiful. breakfast- great. innkeepers- wonderful. price- great. nice to have your own bathroom in the room too.

Enjoyable evening away and very close to historic downtown and the Gaylord Texan. However, I do not like coffee and don't really care for the smell of it. I was a bit disappointed when the mini fridge strongly smelled of the coffee stored in it and the ice cubes tasted like coffee. We also did not get the advertised turn down service with chocolate truffles. Would however, consider staying there again if those things were corrected.

[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews]
As owner of Garden Manor, I would like to respond to this very helpful review. I have tried to remove any reference to the chocolate truffle turndown service on all B&B directories since the shop on Main Street went out of business and there is no local chocolatier to provide our boxed chocolates. We added coffee makers to each room in response to guest feedback and discontinued the weekend early morning coffee service set up on the table upstairs to reduce hall noise. However, I appreciate this feedback that coffee smell in the guestroom would certainly be offensive to those who do not drink it. So, we are returning to the general weekend early morning coffee service and will also offer personal coffee makers upon request :-) Thank you for the input as we do incorporate it into our practices.

- Judy Dusek (innkeeper)

Beautiful grounds, great location, pleasant innkeepers but just "OK" for the overall experience. The website noted morning coffee service which I was looking forward to first thing in the morning. It consisted of make your own coffee in your room but nothing provided to stir your coffee with. A perfect spot would be on the magazine table upstairs. I smelled wonderful coffee and wandered downstairs thinking it was set up for self service in the dining room but it was a no show. In other inns I've visited, there were cookies, fresh fruit, lemonade, coffee, etc. available in the common areas which seemed to promote casual visiting with other guests, lounging and reading in the common areas after a busy day of shopping or sightseeing.

[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews]
As owner of Garden Manor, I want to respond to this guest review. We discontinued the upstairs coffee service on weekends based on guest feedback that it can be noisy. However, this reviewer makes excellent points, so we are returning to the coffee service and, rather than having it upstairs outside the guest rooms, we will set it up downstairs in the guest dining room to minimize noise for sleeping guests while providing a comfortable place for those who enjoy waking up to a great cup of coffee and fellowship with other guests. Thank you for the great feedback :-)

- Judy Dusek (innkeeper)

Staying at the Garden Manor was a great experience. The rooms were very clean and nice, and the beds very comfortable. The location is not nosy and the breakfast was homemade and delicious!

Judy has taken great care to establish this residence as a perfect getaway. The time and attention that has gone into the garden alone is substancial. The accomocations have a southern flare. The decor is neat & detailed to the theme of the room's title. Everything in the surrounding area ( that is w/ in walking distance ) is all a guest will need. La Buena Vida is just down the street. Located in the downtown historic district, main street is just around the corner. But let me just say Judy's breakfast is scrumptious! J&N Miller

We enjoyed our visits w/the other guests. Our hosts didn't talk that much, more to themselves. The beds were quite comfortable and cozy. We were served the same breakfast both mornings. It was good, just thought we might get something different the second morning.

I truly enjoyed my stay at the Garden Manor B&B. It was quiet, relaxing, and I wish I had been able to stay longer. The gormet breakfasts catapulted me into my day with great delight. Travelling solo is much nicer when there is a surrogate home to nest in on a temporary basis. I prefer a B&B over a chain hotel any day! Thanks Judy and Gunther for offering your kind services and for a marvelous place to stay.

This is a great place to get away! I went alone for the weekend and it was very quiet. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious and it was nice to eat with the other guests for some company each morning. It was my first time to go to Grapevine, so walking the town was quite a treat since the BnB was so close to everything. I did miss getting my pillow mint each night and didn't receive the extra waters instead of sodas in my fridge as requested, but these were minor compared to everything else. I look forward to going back with my husband. In fact, I am sad that Valentines is already booked!

Fabulous breakfast of omelets, fresh fruit, english muffins and coffee. One of the best omelets I've ever had! Had great privacy..rooms looked just like pictures. It was spacious yet secluded. Walking distance to restaurants and shops. Would LOVE to stay here again!

We had our wedding there with 47 people under a romantic tent and a beautiful misty October night. The lights in the trees were spetacular and the service was outstanding. ~~Tiffany and Gregg Ondrusek

Very friendly and welcoming and all with a lovely Christmassy smell!

I recently had a trip to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and on a chance googled alternatives to the resort where I found the Garden Manor B&B Inn. Judy was most accomdating and the breakfast sure beat the normal fare at the Hampton Inn. Nearby restaurants and wine tasting rooms are just a short walk away. The Garden Manor gets two thumbs up!

We came for a business trip and found a relaxing, beautiful comfortable retreat! Breakfasts were delicious and the grounds lovely, Judy provided breakfast on our schedule! A wonderful experience I look forward to repeating!

I can highly recommend the Garden Manor B & B. Breakfast was great and loads to do withn walking distance.

The hostess is very nice, helpful and made us feel welcome. They warn you about "squeaky floors" and that is certainly true! Transoms are open over the doors of the bedrooms leaving some privacy somewhat weak. Food was excellent!

[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews]
Privacy of our guests is extremely important, so I wanted to respond to this review :-) While our wide pine plank wood floors upstairs do squeak, the resulting noise is NOT heard in the surrounding guestrooms ~ only below in our personal living quarters. None of our guestrooms share a common bedroom wall as there are bathrooms in each room that are side by side to further provide privacy. The original glass transoms above each guestroom door are operational, and guests have the option of opening or closing their transom.

- Judy Dusek (innkeeper)

This charming and beautiful B&B is literally right around the corner from historical downtown Grapevine that includes galleries, shops, restaurants, and wine cellars.

We did not want to leave our room, but we were very thankful we did! The breakfasts were amazing, I would go back just to eat. This B&B sits within walking distance of historic Grapevine, which means quaint shops and good food. And, in Grapevine, that means small wineries. We are not avid wine drinkers, but found a few bottles we liked that we brought back to our room. The owners are very accommodating and overly friendly. The rooms were clean and tidy, historic and romantic. We loved staying here and we are already looking for a reason to go back!

My husband and I stayed for our anniversary and we had a great time. It is located close to local shops, spas, and wineries (within walking distance). Judy was very nice and the service was wonderful. The rooms are quiet and cozy and the garden in the back is beautiful! Breakfast was delicious and we look forward to staying again. -Stephanie

The inn is an updated old house, with 4 bedromms upstairs. Each is differently and beautifully decorated. The place is ideal for a romantic vacation. Parties and weddings can be held in the gorgeous garden. Judy, hte keeper, prepares great breakfast and tends to every guest's need. I highly recommend thisl B&B.

I had a wonderful 2 night stay in May, 2009. You will not find a more gracious owner/hostess who can really cook up those delicious breakfasts with buttermilk biscuits, omlets, & fresh fruit. Loved the large room and the peaceful gardens and swinging on the front veranda. It was just a short walk to the shops and restraunts of the historic district... I had a lovely stay and do hope to go back soon....

Garden Manor Bed and Breakfast Inn renewed my energy, help me recharge, and fill back up with joy/peace. It's a great place to relax. The beauty, fantastic bed, calm porch, and tranquil atmosphere are just a few things that help renew you. Oh yeah and the breakfast is a great way to start your morning. This isn't a hotel it's a place you won't want to leave.

In the quaint historic area of Grapevine, we found a gem-the Garden Manor Inn. It was our 30th anniversary and we wanted a romantic long weekend. How much better than an impersonal motel! We stayed in a cozy country French bedroom (with the most comfortable bed ever) in a beautiful house with a front porch swing, a garden in the rear, and a small deck right off our bedroom. We slept late and at 8:00 each morning there was coffee outside our room. The breakfasts Judy prepared were unbelievably delicious.The location was within very easy walking distance of most all the wineries and the historical and art sections of the town. In all, I can't recommend this highly enough. Our anniversary stay exceeded our expectations. G and G Harris

An absolutely delightful place to stay, one block from downtown. The house and gardens are beautiful, serene, and a true retreat. My special thanks to Judy for making my stay so memorable.

My wife and I celebrate our 18th anniversary here. The place is very romantic and the food and service were top notch. I highly recommend a stay here.

My daughter and I took a quick trip to celebrate birthdays and Mother's Day. We received such a warm welcome by Judy. The Inn is so cozy, the gardens are beautiful and easily within walking distance to the wonderful boutiques in historic downtown Grapevine. We loved our messages at the Renata Spa. We would both highly recommend the Garden Manor Inn and will definitely stay again when in the area.

We loved our stay at Garden Manor and the B & B neighborhood...tons of shops, a wonderful couple's massage at the Renata right across the street, a great dinner at Dino's Steakhouse, and a peaceful night's sleep at Garden Manor. It was heaven. Our private balcony was a nice surprise in the Country French Room.

What a wonderful place in Grapevine. Had a wonderful owner/hostess with a great breakfast each morning.

What a wonderful and relaxing place to get away from everything. Even though you are just around the corner from Main St., you would never know it is there. We enjoyed everything about our stay. The conversations with our hostess was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the house and area.

This is a fabulous B&B with comfy beds and fabulous coffee. We had a great night's sleep there. Plus, the town of Grapevine is great for an early morning walk. I highly recommend this place!

The Inn and grounds are beautiful. The rooms are roomy, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. The food was delicious. We didn't want for anything!

What a lovely bed & breakfast! It was so close to shops & restaurants in downtown Grapevine.

Very nice host, delicious breakfast and convenient location. I recommend it :)

Easy to find and park in back. Just 2 blocks from historic downtown Grapevine that was fun to walk around. Also beautiful gardens in back, even in the winter, that we enjoyed walking through. Both breakfasts were served hot and delicious. A really great experience at Garden Manor.

It was a wonderful place for old friends to get together. We spent many hours in the living room in front of the fireplace. We were thrilled we could walk out the door to so many nice shops and restaurants. Judy was very attentive to our needs and making sure we were well fed in the mornings. We had a great time!

Have you ever had a hard month? We did- and it was such a needed escape for both of us. We could not be anymore please with the ease of setting up the whole experience. Our host Judy out did herself setting accommodations to the Manor but also worked out a deal for a spa treatment for both of us. Our escape was special. Thank you from the bottom of our Hearts Art and Rose

I found this to be a very nice bed and breakfast - very comfortable and warm - I much preferred the character of this home to the coldness that I felt in most of Dallas. I would recommend it quite highly to business travelers - It is close to the airport and so much nicer than a standard hotel room. Great food in Grapevine and good places to walk.

A lovely Inn with a very welcoming atmosphere. There was a nice, cozy fire in the fireplace when we arrived and our room was just lovely. Breakfast was great. We especially appreciated the express check-in that allowed us to come at go as we pleased.

My husband and I were looking for a romantic place to stay for our Christmas present to each other. The Garden Manor was a great choice - I love that we were so close to the charming Downtown of Grapevine. Breakfast was fabulous and Judy was a great host.

The Garden Manor was a wonderful surprise. The Inn was beautifully decorated for Christmas and just minutes from Downtown Grapevine. Will definately try a return visit in the future.

This was my third visit to the Grapevine, Texas area to attend an annual training seminar. On the other two visits I stayed in typical hotel rooms. The Garden Manor Inn was much more pleasant! The house is beautiful - Judy had just decorated for the Christmas season. There are only four rooms to rent, all upstairs and each with a private bath. My room was very comfortable - especially the mattress. Judy goes out of her way to make your stay enjoyable. She asks about any preferences you may have for breakfast and stocks the mini frig in each room with your favorite soft drinks and bottled water! The towels are so much better than hotel grade, and stored on a warming towel rack. The inn is one block away from the historic downtown area, which includes unique shops, winery stores, and several restaurants. Definitely a place to visit again!

If you've ever stayed overnight in the DFW airport area, I would highly recommend this B&B as an alternative to the standard airport hotels. The inn is really close to the airport and it is surrounded by trees and has a beautiful garden out back. The rooms are comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent. The historic Grapevine area is just around the corner and has a lot of nice restaurants and shops. I would definitely stay there again.

For a moment I wanted to get away from the crazy city life but not have to go too far. Amidst the metroplex is this wonderful B&B which greeted me with a wonderful charm and a place to rest and relax. I truly enjoyed the breakfast, the gardens, private balcony and the books available to guests to read at their leisure. Judy was so nice to visit just enough to make me feel welcome and yet let me have my much needed quite time. I found everything I was looking for at this delightful B&B.

We booked the entire Inn for a small reunion with family who live in the area. It couldn't have worked out any better. The Inn is adorable, clean as a whistle and the most convenient place to stay because it's only a block to cute, historic downtown Grapevine. Breakfast was scrumptious. I can't wait to go back.

At the last minute needed a place near DFW & couldn't have made a better choice. Check-in was easy, just as Judy said. Felt like I was a special family member, with her own front door key. Beats the "big boy" hotels hands down. No miles of walking to the elevators and parking. Was a taste of home, well, maybe better than home. No one gets breakfast like Judy's at my home!!

Great location, comfortable accomodations. Perfect for what I needed.

Comfortable beds, great whirlpool in the Colonial Indies room, backyard and second floor patio are great eating and relaxing areas, and breakfast was fantastic! Judy is so nice and easy to talk to -- she's definitely in the right business!

Great location for strolling the streets of downtown Grapevine (shopping, wine bars, festivals). A lovely home to make your romantic getaway perfect!

The "Set Sails for Romantic Escape" was a perfect way to celebrate our anniversary. The extra amenities (roses, wine, and chocolate covered strawberries) were an extra touch to make our day special. The inn is in a perfect location in Grapevine to walk around the historic area. Restaurants and shops are varied and interesting. Judy is a great hostess and we will return to the Garden Manor Inn next time we want an evening away from home.

What a wonderful one night stay we had at the Garden Manor! We only traveled from Dallas, but when we got settled in it really felt like we were far away on a vacation; this was a great feeling. The Garden Manor is in a wonderful location. We were able to walk to everything that we wanted to do (restaurants, wineries, shopping). The breakfast was amazing! I would highly recommend this place to anyone that is just looking to get away for a bit.

My stay at the Garden Manor Bed & Breakfast was a pleasurable experience. The Inn is within walking distance of Historic Downtown Grapevine. Guests are well cared for in a quiet and clean environment.

Took two (2) rooms for my wife and daughters to enjoy her 60th Birthday... youngest daughter flew in from Denver, older daughter lives in DFW area... All three loved the Garden Manor experience, its convenience to the historic Main Street area of Grapevine... and general location in the heart of Dallas-Ft. Worth. Judy made sure two dozen roses and chocolate covered strawberries were waiting when my wife arrived... and strawberries were in the girls room as well. They loved the private patio and balcony, and the Christmas decor was inspiring. Thanks Judy, we'll be returning to enjoy more of your beautiful inn and warm hospitality... Texas Style!

When location & convenience in a beautiful, comfortable setting are your objectives, this is the perfect place. After a full day of shopping and fun in Grapevine, the last thing we wanted was to drive somewhere! This lovely B&B is a short walk from all the shops and it feels like a stroll home. The beautiful landscape and the comfy rooms provide a peaceful and serene escape. We'll be coming back! Judy is a great hostess and breakfast was delicious!

We stayed here during a hectic time of year for us and it was wonderful. The room was beautiful, clean, and comfortable!! Would love to stay at the Garden Manor again!

I had high expectations, so rating the experience in the "met my expections" range is saying a lot. The Garden Manor is centrally located between the quaint downtown shopping/dining area and the railroad station, both within walking distance. The inn itself took me back in time as soon as I started up the steps to the front porch; the house and my room were both beautifully decorated. Breakfast, cooked by Judy, was a treat - delicious and visually appealing. Judy was also very helpful in suggesting dining and sightseeing options. This was a weekend I won't soon forget.

We stayed here this past weekend and we absolutely loved it! We were really impressed by how beautiful the house is! Definitely a change from our usually bed and breakfasts! The food was incredible. I think what made it even better was that they went out of their way to ensure that we had a peaceful night's sleep and romantic getaway. Thank you Judy and Gunther!

We just celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary at Garden Manor, and what a wonderful 2-night stay. The home inside and out was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The rooms are furnished smartly without being fussy, and the breakfasts were delicious! We love the location, just a block from Main Street with all kinds of restaurants, shops, and wine tasting rooms. However, there was a situation that occurred during our stay, and it was all I could do to keep my husband in our room! Another couple staying there returned to their room around 10 pm, accompanied by some friends who apparently live in the area. They were very loud and boisterous, but we kept thinking they were just saying their good-nights and things would quiet down soon. Unfortunately it just went on and on, until we finally called the owners about the racket. When Judy tried to talk to the people about the noise, the men became very belligerent. Judy asked if they could all go downstairs and out on the porch to discuss situation, but the people just wouldn't listen to reason. The husband went into great detail about how he and his wife would blast negative reviews throughout Internet on “their horrible experience at Garden Manor". Throughout it all Judy listened, tried to talk but couldn’t complete a sentence. They finally left at 11 pm. The following morning at breakfast we told Judy how impressed we were with her patience and that we would be sure to write a wonderful review about Garden Manor! She was very apologetic for the noise ~ when my husband said he hoped that they paid a premium rate for their stay, Judy shared that she had not charged them. That's CLASS! It is unfortunate that B&B owners open to their home to the public and some guests show such total disrespect, not to mention their insensitivity to others staying there too.

This was my gift to my sister, to stay in a B&B in Grapevine. We found it so very charming and quaint. Judy was so accommodating.

Everything was wonderful at the Garden Inn. I felt so much at home. It was a very peaceful & relaxed atmosphere. My room was spotless & the service incredible. Everything was above & beyond my expecations. Breakfasts were delicious...Judy is a great cook. I would recommend this B&B to business travelers....it beats any hotel by far. I would also recommend it to people looking for a get-away....it's perfect. It's close to wonderful restaurants & cute shops.

A group of 7 females shared a college reunion at Garden Manor. Judy provided excellent recommendations for dining out, prepared a scrumptious breakfast each morning and made us feel comfortable, welcome while allowing us "our time together" uninterrupted! The Manor is lovely, beautifully landscaped and conveniently located - within walking distance of shopping, dining and wineries. Truly a delightful experience!

We loved staying here at Garden Manor and will not hesitate to stay again. Judy is such a great cook and anything we needed she made sure we had it.

This B & B was the most convenient place to stay for the Grapefest. I've only been to one other B & B and had an outstanding breakfast at the other place. I just guess that a B & B should have a wonderful breakfast, like something you wouldn't get at home, but the Garden Manor just had a plain ole' breakfast. Nothing spectacular about it.

Judy is attentive to your needs and full of reginal information to help guide your DFW visit. Within walking distance to historic downtown Grapevine. The room and grounds were clean and well kept. You can't get a better night's sleep from a queen size bed.

Nice B&B to stay in if you want to check out old downtown Grapevine or just sit on the porch and unwind.

Our 2nd stay was equal to our 1st stay, perfect from start to finish. The quietness, perfect hostess, Breakfast time was excellant...wish we could bottle the atmosphere. The backyard island was perfection supreme. We'll be back sooner!

This place is a treasure. I thouroughly enjoyed staying here on my business trip. It made it feel like a vacation.

We've stayed at the Garden Manor twice and both times were just lovely. We don't live too far from the inn but once we settled in it felt like we were miles and miles away. We will book again when we need a little r/r. The breakfast are out of the this world and the shopping is with in walking distance. We can't say enough good things about Judy and her b/b.

relaxing atmosphere provided by lovely accommodations and innkeeper's hospitality.

We had a girl's getaway weekend and couldn't have picked a lovelier place to stay. Our hosts were gracious and eager to make our weekend the best it could be. Our accomodations and the grounds surrounding Garden Manor were beautiful. And the location was right off of historic Main street, so we were within walking distance of great food, wine tasting rooms, and shopping. I would definitely recommend Garden Manor Bed and Breakfast!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. While it was a birthday present for my husband, the R&R was much needed by me. The room we selected was very cozy and welcoming. I was disappointed with the porch as the sun was there at all times and the tree prohibited any front views. We moved to the upper level front porch and there I could have stayed. We watched planes land without hearing them, enjoyed the solitude and the breeze, and the rocking chairs with all the hustle and bustle just a block away. The convenience of walking to the shops and restaurants was a plus. Judy recommended the Big Fish for dinner which we enjoyed very much. There is something to be said for walking into a beautiful living room and dining area versus a hotel lobby. The grounds are gorgious and we want to return in the fall. Breakfast was prompt, hot and delicious, and our hostess warm and friendly. Everyone in the shops very friendly, eager to please, and prices within everyone's range. We definitely will return to the Garden Manor and to Grapevine. Must add I enjoyed getting my "passport" stamped at all the right places!

We stayed at the Garden Manor Bed and Breakfast for one night. It was walking disctancet to Main Street Grapevine (shopping, wineries, antiquing). The rooms and service were great and Judy was very friendly.

The Garden Manor Inn is a beautiful inn which provides a private, relaxing retreat to its guests. We loved enjoying beverages while sitting on the porch and strolling though the lush garden out back. Judy and Gunther are wonderful hosts who afford their guests privacy while also being accesssible to meet needs. We would highly recommend the Garden Manor Inn!

The express check-in was extremely convenient and one couldn't have asked for a cleaner room, but the best part of all was the breakfast...the food was absolutley delicious! It was a very nice surprise!

This is such an amazing place! My husband and I have stayed here multiple times as have my parents...Garden Manor is so beautiful with its hard wood floors, antiques, exquisite landscaping, and unique decorations...definitely not your run of the mill b&b. We've stayed in 2 of the 4 rooms (can't wait to try the other 2). One had a deep clawfoot tub and heated towel racks. The other had a luxurious jetted tub. We had free beverages in our mini fridge and hand made truffles in a sweet little gift box on our bed. We roamed her gardens (which are fantastic with the twinkly lights) and shopped the unique shops just steps away. There is a winery nearby where we bought wine and sipped it on the porch. We even attended a wedding held there and it was breath-taking! I would highly recommend this beautiful inn to anyone who wants to "get away from it all"...
