"I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at the Iron Gate Inn. We had a wonderful weekend. Winfield is a city with quaint charm and the Iron Gate is the perfect place to stay and experience the area. Melinda is the perfect Inn keeper. She was there to assist us no matter what we needed... The food was wonderful. This was a truly awesosme experience. We will definately be back in the future... Thanks again."Lou and George K.

The Iron Gate Inn, a bed and breakfast inn, was built in 1885 for John Peter Baden a wealthy industrialist of the day and founder of St. John's College in Winfield, Kansas. His wife, Mrs. Baden founded the Lutheran orphanage. With three elegant Guest Suites each with its own private in-room bath and fine Victorian details, the Iron Gate Inn is Winfield's most gracious B&B . . .
The Iron Gate Inn is less than one mile from downtown Winfield and is full of interesting and original details from the days of Mr. & Mrs. Baden. The Inn which sits on two city lots is surrounded by antique iron fencing and gates - which are so low to the ground that a 6-foot person might have to stoop a bit to open the gates, but back in the day, it was the height of fashion! The incredible parquet floors (on the 1st and 2nd floors) were imported from Europe. The sweeping main staircase (17 feet long) is of hand carved walnut. For their children, the Badens built a frame-style child's-sized playhouse on the grounds which still sits on the grounds. There are three ornate Victorian fireplaces. All windows (including Guest Suites) have original vertical sliding interior shutters. The Baden's opulent 1885 home is now a cozy Bed and Breakfast Inn. Tours are certainly welcomed and free of charge to the public. "The Iron Gate Inn . . . Winfield's Historic Ambassador"
All five Guest Suites at the Iron Gate Inn have their own monogrammed Egyptian cotton linens and towels finished with custom satin tatting. Expect your own private full bathroom, never a shared bathroom. Guest Suites are priced for either one or two persons and all Guest Suites include an LED flat screen color TV, complimentary bottled water, free high-speed wireless internet, their own individual temperature controls in the room and two of our picture-perfect gourmet breakfasts - served either in the Main Dining Room or for those a bit less energetic in the morning try breakfast-in-bed as a complimentary option!!We thank you for staying with the Iron Gate Inn and helping preserve this elegant Kansas estate, still quite original and very historic! Stay at the Iron Gate Inn!

The Iron Gate Inn is full of authentic Victorian details like this original fireplace - one of three ornate fireplaces. Highly decorative fireplaces with constructed flues (vs. flue pipe) were the height of fashion in 1885. Fireplaces in the Iron Gate Inn were designed to burn coal - wood was burned by more common-folk and although they produced some heat, providing supplemental heat was not their main function moreover, they provided a focal point to gather and socialize. . . an elegant backdrop to polite Victorian social calls . . .

We had an amazing weekend stay at this lovely B&B. The Inn Keeper, Melinda, was very accommodating and personal, we really enjoyed getting to know her. We bought the Valentine's Day package and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had massages by Terri, which were absolutely wonderful. All the special little touches of personal service throughout our stay were so refreshing and much appreciated. We had chocolates on our pillows and bottled water upon our arrival. We had our choice of a couple options for breakfast, I chose the pancakes and bacon while my husband chose the omelet with fresh fruit. We both had water with a wedge of lime, orange juice with a wedge of orange & strawberry yogurt with a fresh strawberry all served in stemware. Makes me want to start using my stemware and garnish with fresh fruit wedges! This historical home is simply gorgeous. We would love to visit again, perhaps in the warmer months so we can enjoy the beautiful porch and screened in balcony.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
