Katy House Bed and Breakfast

If you’re searching for paradise and/or wondering if paradise even exists, I can tell you that it does, and it’s at the Katy House Bed and Breakfast in Smithville, Texas. I have stayed numerous times at the Katy House since September 2019. This year alone, I have stayed numerous times up to a week at a time. That’s how much I love this place. It is my home away from home. So far, I have stayed in four out of the six rooms available. This last time, my husband and I stayed in the Conductor’s Cottage and fell in love with it! Each of the rooms has its own unique charm and character. The rooms are all well decorated, clean, and well maintained. Just when I think that Tiffany (the owner) can not possibly make the rooms (and my stay) any more perfect, she surprises me and makes each stay better than the last. The beds are incredibly comfy as are the sheets. There are plenty of pillows in the bed, and they are all fluffed up nicely. You will definitely want to stay in bed longer than normal just from how comfy the bed is. Breakfast is still amazing. Even though I don’t like grits, the cheese and jalapeño grits that Tiffany makes are so good! They are the only grits I eat. My husband doesn’t really care for pancakes, but he always craves the blueberry pancakes that Tiffany makes. The maple bacon and jalapeño cheese sausage is also so good too! You can definitely tell that Tiffany doesn’t cheap out on ingredients and that she cooks with love. Also, my husband isn’t a flavored coffee guy, but he does love the fresh pecan coffee on offer at the Katy House every morning. Tiffany is also great with honoring dietary requests as well. The rest of the Katy House staff are all very nice and always have a smile on their faces. Seriously, the Katy House is amazing. Tiffany is always thinking about how to make things better it seems. She goes above and beyond to make each guest feel special and to make them happy. Tiffany wears her heart on her sleeve and is very genuine which helps to make everyone feel welcome. When you stay at the Katy House, it feels as if you are among friends that you have known forever. If you’re after a laid back romantic getaway or some quality rest and relaxation, the Katy House is where you need to be. Once you stay, you’ll be wanting to come back.

I have been coming to the Katy House since September 2019. I fell in love with it way back then. I refuse to stay anywhere else now. That’s how much I love it! I usually go 3+ times a year and stay at least 4 or 5 nights (sometimes longer). The Katy House is my refuge from the hustle and bustle of life. I have always said the Katy House is Heaven on Earth, and I still stand by that. When I stay, I feel like I am transported to a magical place where everything is right in the world. It’s such a special place to stay. Tiffany has done such a magnificent job with the Katy House. I always think it’s perfect each time I go, but somehow Tiffany always finds a way to improve on the perfection. Tiffany cooks the most amazing breakfasts. I would even say that her breakfasts could even rival any top chef. Breakfasts are always tasty and so beautiful. They are also quite plentiful, so be prepared to be filled up until dinner time! The rooms are always immaculately cleaned and well taken care of. The beds are super comfortable as well, and there are plenty of pillows as well as high quality sheets. (Tiffany really has thought of everything to make guests’ stay feel magical.) Be sure to stay at the Katy House at least once in your life, and you’ll see why I have kept coming back since September 2019!

Beautiful home, inside and out. Great attention to historic detail. The inside has been updated with all modern conveniences without losing the charm of the original home. Hostess, Tiffany, and her staff, are warm, friendly and attentive. Breakfast is one of the best we've had at a B & B. You won't go away hungry! Smithville is a delightful small town with just enough things to see and do to keep you as busy as you want to be on a lazy weekend. Highly recommend.

I Wish I Could Give MORE Than 5 Stars! Tiffany is the most lovely, gracious, and warm host you will ever encounter. The house is lovely and Tiffany makes sure everything is perfect. We stayed with her to celebrate my birthday and Tiffany had decorated our room for me! Breakfast was wonderful! Homemade biscuits with sausage gravy, an omelet, yogurt with fruit and granola, Texas Pecan coffee and juices. All delicious and that was just the first day! Thank you, Tiffany, for making my birthday so special. We feel like we have a new friend and we look forward to visiting with you again.

Katy House Bed and Breakfast is an absolute delight in a fabulous Texas small town! Smithville is quaint and charming and Katy House seemed to fling its arms open wide and embrace us with comfort. Our hostess thought of EVERYTHING - all the little touches that made our stay over-the-top. So many B & Bs now opt for continental breakfast so our made-from-scratch breakfast was wonderful. Even the coffee was perfect!! We loved the bath products, the fluffy towels, the crystal water glasses, the throw across one of the bed corners, the plethora of pillows to choose from. Shall I go on? Book your stay! You won't regret it!

A real southern jewel! I’m compelled to write a review because this B&B is world class. From the charming and accommodating hosts, Tiffany & Shelby to the most delicious breakfast I’ve ever had at a B&B. The rooms are magazine worthy and the beds are one of the best sleeps ever. So my eternal thanks for such a exquisite stay!
