Our king room was comfortable and the breakfast was good, with enough varied menu items that you could find something you liked. Yogurt was excellent, as was the homemade baked apple topping on the French toast. There are one or two steep flights of stairs, depending on where your room is. The house shows its age, but it is comfortable.

We visited Hermann with a group of friends; and stayed at Birk's Gasthaus. This B&B is very clean; and holds the traditional charm of Hermann. The rooms are large with comfortable beds and nice bedding. The parlor has a nice pool table and big screen TV. There is a huge wrap-around porch with plenty of seating and shade trees. The breakfast was excellent. The owner was very accomodating to our needs.

My colleagues and I periodically have court cases in Hermann, and sometimes require that we stay overnight to finish our court cases. We always stay at Birksgasthaus/Herzog Mansion because they have WIFI and a recreational room with a large screen TV, pool table and a porch. Richard our host has always been accommodating, he allows us to spread our papers on the dining room table to prepare for court, the food is very tasty and we get lots of it......YUMMY! he even shared his recipes with us. His granola and berries yogurt mix is to die for.... If you are not a breakfast eater, a big bowl of it will keep you full all day. The beds are very comfortable, the rooms are clean and very spacious. It is very quiet and serene over there and a great place to relax or a quiet getaway. I did not care to use the claw tub in my room but Richard allowed me to use the shower in another room that wasn't occupied. This was our fifth stay in the last year and our Corvette Club is coming back for October Fest. I would definitely recommend Birksgasthaus for your future stay.

Richard was a great innkeeper, myself and five friends stayed at Birk's for the weekend for an annual Wine Weekend in Hermann, Missouri. Though 3 of us rode together on the way down and called Richard to let him know that we were checking in late (because of work obligations), he was very nice and checked us in without any issues on Friday night.

The rooms were nice, they were older (as you would expect in a restored house), but they were comfortable. I think many of the girls rented rooms without a shower, so the tub was the only way to get ready in the morning.

Breakfast is served at a certain time in the morning and some of our party wished it was a little later because this was their weekend getaway. But a few of the girls would eat, then head back for a nap before we started our day.

There is a main fridge that Richard allows guests to put items in if needed, this is nice if you order Pizza and have leftovers for the next night or want to have cheese with your wine.

We had a great stay and utilized the shared lobby, sitting room and game room to talk and relax. The front porch is roomy and is nice to sit outside and have a glass of wine and spend time with your friends and family.
