Anchuca Historic Mansion & Inn

My husband and I love to stay at Bed & Breakfast when we travel. We had decided to do a trip to Vicksburg NP last minute and stumbled upon Anchuca. We went there with no set expectations but what a delight. One of best places we have ever stayed! The place was clean, the room was full of charm and character, the breakfast has my husband liking grits and the pool was such a respite from the hot day! We loved this B&B and only wish I could rate it higher than five stars.

Terrific accommodations in a historic antebellum mansion. Staff works very hard to make sure everyone has a great experience. The food is delicious! We will b back!

Sadly, Anchuca Historic Mansion and Inn does not live up to the hyperbolic descriptions on its website. We arrived on April 3, 2025 for a two-night stay. Here is what we experienced: ＞ employees at the reservation desk arguing in front of guests; ＞ no help to carry luggage a significant distance and up two staircases to our second floor room; ＞ a hole the size of a basketball in a wall in our room, covered by a ridiculous sign thanking us for our understanding; ＞ loud noise from the restaurant below our room that lasted until after 10pm, long after closing; ＞ unappetizing breakfasts of cold grits, cold scrambled eggs and cold bacon; ＞ outdoor grounds lacking a spring clean-up, with leaves, twigs and branches everywhere, and only a few tables and chairs for guests; ＞ pool unavailable despite temperatures near 80 degrees; ＞ a bee colony on the grounds that drove us back to our room For two nights in a room with a king-size bed, we paid a total of $526.50. Included in that total were processing and facility fees of $31.00 (7 percent of the total room charge). We wish to note that Anchuca's 7 percent in additional fees was far higher than the processing fees of four other hotels we stayed in during our vacation, including the Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans and the Peabody in Memphis. Think our experience was just a one-time aberration? Read the Trip Advisor review from Peter_01039 from November 2016. It's clear that Anchuca has issues that carry over from year to year, and owner to owner.

The staff was so friendly and accommodating! My room was perfect and the house is exquisite. The rooms are appointed with beautiful real glasses and coffee cups with complimentary yummy coffee and water. There are snacks in the room for purchase. The beds are high and the pillows are great.

Historic property in an historic city - lots of Southern hospitality!

Anchuca - A wonderful place to stay in Vicksburg It is nothing short of a privilege to be able to stay at Anchuca. A superb house with a wonderful heritage and history. The meal in the restaurant was wonderful, excellent food and great service. We would happily stay for a month. The bedroom was very well appointed and super comfy. Finally a special shout out to the breakfast server who talked with real depth of knowledge about the siege and the role that the house played during and after the siege. You would not be disappointed.
