Guest Book

Wow! Thank you for helping us celebrate our 3rd anniversary —  and a night away from our toddler! Everything, I mean everything was amazing. The decor was inviting and beautiful, the bed was super comfortable, and breakfast was delicious and peaceful. We will remember every moment of our stay here. Congratulations on your success — keep it up, and we'll be back!
— Adam & Jamie R.

This is our first experience at a bed and breakfast. We had a wonderful time and will spread the word to our family and friends. We hope to be back again!!!
— Dan & Andrea, Ohio

We had a nice visit and you were so gracious.
P.S. "Rubber Ducky" is a great addition, but Cookie steals the show!
— Jon & Joyce D.

Perfect! Just what we like: great attention to detail, very cozy ambiance. Can't wait to come back. Thanks.
— Sabah & Yasir

We always look for the unusual during our travels and once again we found the unexpected in the German Village of Columbus. The building is well planned, the decoration is above what we could expect and all the little amenities — including the umbrella stand by the fireplace show you care. Everything is so immaculate, functional and charming. And what a lovely garden.
— Peter & Hesabell, VA

Wonderful experience . . . thank you for everything! Nice hidden treasure for sure. Will be sure to recommend to others.
— Liz & George

A great experience, a nice change from the traditional hotel!
— Chris B., TX

Thank you for a lovely breakfast in a marvelous setting. We will be back!
— Jim & Jaime B.

We thoroughly enjoyed our one night get away from home! Everything exceeded our expectations! We will definitely visit here again. It truly felt like home away from home! Thanks for everything!
— Jina & Danny

Ideal spot for overnight stay on the way from Pittsburgh to Kentucky (and back). Traveling alone, felt very comfortable and safe here, Thanks forGerman Village the breakfast too!
— Sally D.

Thank you again so very much for another special stay at the GVGH! We could think of no better place to treat ourselves with a little R & R after running the Columbus Marathon.
— Marissa & Kevin, FL

Thank you for the most pleasant stay! The house is gorgeous, and the lovely garden is very relaxing and peaceful. Great location — able to easily walk to great restaurants and the Bookloft. Love it!
— Jim & Terri H.

Our wedding was simply magical. Thank you so much for all of your help!
— Katie & David C.

Our stay at the GVGH has been wonderful. It seems to fit perfectly into the surrounding neighborhood — perhaps a "best kept secret" in the Midwest. Tonight, we're off to the Arena District, where we'll be seeing Genesis. Thanks so much for the wonderful accommodations!
— Matt & Jenny, IL

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Our room was beautiful and relaxing. However, our favorite part was the chocolate chip cookies! Thank you!
— Chad & Jen B.

We have stayed in many boutique hotels throughout the country and Canada. Yours rates right up there with the best. We hope to return soon.
— Ed & Marilyn W.

We could not have asked for a more perfect place to stay. In fact we are a bit sad that we have to go home to the real world. The experience here afforded us the time to slow down and smell the roses. The room was great and your staff was absolutely wonderful. I so enjoyed sitting quietly in the garden and reading after a wonderful breakfast. We will definitely return.
— Heather & Guy G., KY

The hotel the hipsters built! We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the thoughtful details. We actually felt like this was our "home" during our short visit to Columbus. GVGH gets top kudos from us! — Kathi & Steve D, WA

Beautiful home, lovely garden, great people! Thanks for making our last night traveling across the country a relaxing and enjoyable one!
— Tom & Gayle, VA

We came to Columbus for a Memorial Day party just across the street from the GVGH — so travel time was pretty easy. The owners have created a FABULOUS place to stay. But there is a problem ... GVGH is so wonderful you want to tell everyone about it. But, you also don't want to share it with too many people, so it's always available when you choose to come back. So here's the deal — if you are writing in this book we know you thoroughly enjoyed GVGH. Let's keep it our little secret, okay?
— Jeff & Nancy, Ohio

Discovered GVGH accidentally while Googling the Rife Theatre. Talk about serendipity! This will be our base in Columbus during each overnight visit.
— David & Kristi, Ohio

Enjoyed our visit! We hope to come back again and spend time in the beautiful garden. — Mr & Mrs Marvin, Ohio

Our stay at the German Village Guesthouse was the perfect complement to the Haus und Garten Tour. We received a very gracious welcome and felt quite at home at GVGH.
— Penny, Michigan; Mary, Jean & Donna, Kentucky

We can not thank you enough for an incredible stay. The home is beautiful, comfortable and welcoming! You could not do it any better! Thank you!
— John, Heather & Tess, Colorado

Thank you very much for your warm hospitality. As a business traveler, it was a welcome diversion from the cold hotel-chain rooms. I look forward to staying here again when I return to Columbus, and will make sure to spread the word to my colleagues. Again, many, many thanks.
— Gary, NYC

The Guesthouse was very welcoming. A spectacular retreat from your ordinary hotel stays. Every moment was perfect. I and my wife would suggest this stay for any occasion. We will be back! Thank you very much,
— Dana & Nicole

My stay at the GVGH was lovely! I slept well and thoroughly enjoyed being in a real neighborhood in a real home. Sure beats the anonymity of hotel stays. Thank you for the wonderful & thoughtful hospitality (I loved the fresh berries every morning). I hope to come back & next time will leave some time to spend in the beautiful garden! Thank you.
— Anne, San Francisco

Excellent stay. Beautiful home & garden. This neighborhood is alive!
— Katherine & Gene

What an amazing experience. A great location, with amazing food and amazing decor. Thank you so much, our surprise birthday party was perfect!
— John L, Columbus

Our compliments to our most gracious hosts. You both have done a fine job of making your guests comfortable ~ refreshed ~ and anxious to return! We will miss your "wake-up hospitality" when we go back to reality! Love the garden ~ love it all. The rubber ducky — How clever!
— Mike & Paula, Ohio

We couldn't have chosen a more romantic place for our wedding night! We loved the champagne & strawberries (& having the place to ourselves). The breakfast was fabulous. Thank you!
— Mr. and Mrs. O (that's the first time we've signed our name!)

WOW! Thanks for your outstanding hospitality. This has been a marvelous B&B/Guesthouse experience — decor, amenities, artwork, flowers, pastries, fruit, gardens, neighborhood — all make this a top-flight overnight respite. Thanks! We never did get out on the town — we were too comfortable here!
— Rick

Thanks for another lovely stay! Could definitely get used to this. Thank you again for your warmth and hospitality.
— Anne, San Francisco

We came for a big family gathering, but being the "overflow", needed a place to stay ... so of course, after last night we are trying to decide if we'll ever stay at our family's place again on future trips to Columbus! This place is a perfect blend of comfort, luxury and home. Know that your hard work is appreciated. Thanks,
— Shannon & Jeff, KY

Your house is spectacular. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the area.
— Jim & Debbie

Your home is very comfortable & truly inviting. See you again soon.
— CJ & Joan

We loved staying here — every detail was perfect! We are hoping for more Football games when we can return.
— Karen & Roger, Boston

This house is beautiful! We all felt as though we were spending the night in Europe. Thank you for the hospitality.
— Carol & Chris, Ohio

In town for the Stones concert — They Rock! GVGH is a great place to stay! Terrific concept boutique hotel — serene and classic decor, good selection for breakfast, fun location. Next time ... we'll stay here again!
— Connie & Tim

We enjoyed our two nights here in this beautiful inn. Love the gardens, the comfortable bed and great breakfasts. We can't believe this is the only B&B in this beautiful historic area! We will stay again since our daughter lives just a few blocks away.
— Mary Lou & Bill, Ohio

What LUXURY! Thanks so much for taking such good care of us. And the service! Delivering fresh bagels, watermelons and blueberries at 6:30 when you could have easily left something the night before ... we can't thank you enough for truly spoiling us.
— Janet & Jon, Ohio

Your bed & breakfast is wonderful. We had a blast — thank you so much — we will be back again!
— John & Francie
