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.

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.

We loved the hotel and the character of it! Our biggest disappointment was the lack of restaurant and bar. We understood that it was hard for the owners to get help. They were working hard to fix the issue. The staff provided all sorts of information to help us with our stay. We will stay there again.

The hotel is almost empty. We had to call for someone to come for the front desk and she was attentive and got us our room immediately. However, the advertisement had shown restaurants and a beer garden there, and all of those had closed a while ago. In at some point, it was an amazing charming place feels like it is just about ready to close up.

Location for us was good. Walking distance for meals.
Was very disappointed the website did not indicate the beir garden was closed. Number one reason we booked it.

Wonderful historic property in small town Batesville , Indiana. This is rural America at its best in many ways. I can only hope the new owners of the hotel will succeed with plans to reopen the restaurant. It should a very fine culinary experience with an accent on German-American cuisine and more.

Great night sleep
The room was clean. Bed comfortable and got a good night sleep. Disappointed that didn’t have restaurant or bar in hotel. There is a bier garten attached. The hotel is a historical listing. If you want a good night sleep this will be a good choice.
