Old Capitol Inn

The Old Capitol Inn was a great experience. Check-in was easy. They moved us to a better room, a King Suite, on check in. “Ricky” was very friendly at the front desk. She also served as bar tender. The rooms were very nice. #14 (Queen Suite) had a view of the garden courtyard. #19 (King Suite) overlooked State Street. I’m very picky about noise and light at night so I was a bit concerned but the room was quiet and dark. Plenty of plug-in / charging stations for iPhone and iPad and Apple Watch. Best shower in a long time. Large shower. High shower head. Hot water with no wait. Breakfast was a solid step up from your standard hotel breakfast. Real eggs scrambled softly. Sausage and bacon. Soft fluffy biscuits. Delicious orange cranberry muffins. Yogurt with granola and berries. Fresh fruit. Plenty of coffee. I’ve paid $15 for less quality in other hotels. The highlight of our stay was sitting outside in the covered patio area and visiting with my sister. It was cooler than normal for an August day in Mississippi and we had the area to ourselves. Mende, the owner, came out to ask about our stay.

One outlet was missing a cover (#19). Bottled water in the room would have been nice but they had a Brita filter in its place.

owner/operator was extremely welcoming and helpful. she gave us a great recommendation for dinner close by. the breakfast was outstanding—everything homemade—blueberry muffins, eggs, incredible creamy grits, bacon, biscuits & gravy, fresh fruit…..We enjoyed it in their gorgeous courtyard with beautiful plants and flowers and flowing fountains. we will definitely be back for another visit when in Jackson!

Excellent hotel . The check in was really easy and all the staff really nice, helpful and professional. The decoration of the room, the quality of the bed, the bathroom are great . The bedroom is large, with a great and nice view to the back yard. The breakfast is perfect . The gated parking is a plus . The backyard is so well decorated, We eat our breakfast outside mi October with a great sunshine ☀️

Nothing .

The hotel was a little gem after staying in executive style hotels. The room was beautifully decorated with a separate lounge area. The interior of the hotel was great and having breakfast and parking included was a big bonus. It is perfectly located too, walking distant from restaurants and the Civil Rights Museum is situated just behind.

Nothing to dislike

I loooved my room. It was magical having the French doors open at night and falling asleep to the sounds of the fountains. The courtyard was amazing and I’ve already ordered solar lights to try to copy the lighting in my backyard. And the apple pastry at breakfast was stupendous! Great location, walked to museums.

Nothing!

The room was excellent, a mini-suite even though all I booked was an ordinary room. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and was very good.

A pool would have been nice. The location is very close to the State Capitol, but this area was/is deserted at weekends.

well located - rooms overlooking courtyard lovely - great breakfast - good shower

friends had the elbow room which was a bit odd and there was some noisy repair work going on outside their window - staff v apologetic when we checked out and said we should have mentioned it which is fair enough ….

Our room was lovely. Breakfast was delicious. The staff was very helpful. We attended the reception for Governor Tate Reeves. It was very nice. The food was delicious.

Nothing. It all was great!

Location is very central in downtown, next to the Museum of Mississippi History and Mississippi Civil Rights Museum (which we highly recommend), room was very spacious and we liked the individual design, fantastic breakfast buffet and a nice rooftop bar for evenings with live music.

This is a well-located, beautiful old property, and the staff was extremely friendly. Very nice courtyard on the back of the property. The tomato gravy over biscuits was the highlight of the breakfast.

The cable was intermittent during my stay. More fresh fruit or healthy options would have been welcome at breakfast.
