The Inn is beautiful. Howard was a wonderful host. He communicated our breakfast options as soon as the reservation was completed. We had a late check in, and he was prompt in replies. The rooms were clean. My only recommendation would be to trim the bush in front of the house. It was a little difficult to walk around and stay on the side walk. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Wonderful stay at the English Merchant Inn From the moment we arrived, the English Merchant Inn exceeded every expectation. The historic charm of the building is beautifully maintained, yet every comfort feels modern and thoughtful. Our room was spotless, cozy, and full of character, with little touches that made it feel special. The innkeepers were warm and welcoming—always ready with helpful recommendations and a genuine smile. Breakfast each morning was absolutely delicious and clearly made with care. The location is ideal for exploring the area, but it’s also so peaceful that you can simply relax and soak in the atmosphere. We left feeling refreshed and already planning our next visit. I can’t recommend the English Merchant Inn highly enough for anyone looking for a perfect blend of comfort, history, and hospitality.

Beautiful hotel, can't wait to come back!

Amazing experience! We stayed in the cottage, and it was just beautiful. The bed is comfortable, and the cottage is very quiet. They have a Keurig with assorted coffee and tea (regular and decaf). I look forward to staying here again!

Love the decor and location

Howard was a wonderful host. The decor is wonderfully done. It is very quaint and lovely. It’s is in walking distance to the town square even though we took the car. It’s in a nice neighborhood. I will definitely stay again.

Wonderful old house!

Wonderful host, great old house to explore, like a museum with a Brit twist! Great wrap around porch. Teacups, plentiful tea and coffee in room. Our suite was like an antique store, so many items to appreciate. Very clean accommodations. Short, easy walk to downtown Waxahachie, great breakfast places. Sweet town.

Staff reached out to us in advance to provide us check-in and parking information. Once we arrived, staff welcomed us via text and made sure everything was going well. The location was great and convenient for the purpose of our overnight stay. Room was clean and everything worked well for an older property. The property was really cool and we enjoyed our stay. The only reason not to give it 5 stars was the condition of the building. It is a old home in an historic area, the cracks in the walls and shower area just need to be patched and updated.

Wonderful Inn!!

This is our second year to stay at the English Merchants Inn. The beds & pillows are so comfortable! They provide q-tips, eye makeup remover, cotton balls, makeup remover wipes, & bathroom spray. Who does that? It was rainy & cool during our stay so we enjoyed a fire without the mess of wood. This is a wonderful place to stay. I do wish they provided on site breakfast. Not thrilled to have to leave the Inn for breakfast, but not such a big issue to keep me from staying there again.
