Hotel Frederick

We just love this Place and the Staff. This was our 6th Stay over the last several years and a must visit if in Boonville. We make two to three trips a year for visits to Warm Springs Ranch(Budweiser Clydesdale Breeding Facility) traveling from Kentucky. We feel like we are part of "the Fred" family. Have never been disappointed in any way. Holly and Staff always take great care of us and we love every little detail that's been put into the Hotel, Bar, Restaurant, and Speakeasy in the basement. Just a perfect mix of History and updates. They continue to develop and fine tune the amenities, the Live music on the weekends in the beautiful Brick Room Rathskeller Bar, the coffee bar for Breakfast, the new antique and boutique off the lobby. The Restaurant has a nice offering and menu, and our favorite place to spend our time is the small, intimate bar off the lobby, "The Fred", great craft cocktails and offerings, the best Martini West of the Mississippi, Thanks "Gracie". Look forward to our next visit and we thank everyone for their hospitality.

If you're a Mizzou parent struggling to find reasonably priced accommodations in Columbia during football weekends, consider staying at The Fred in nearby Boonville. I recently stayed there for Dad’s Weekend and couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. On our first night, my son joined us for dinner at the hotel’s excellent restaurant. Afterward, we drove back to Columbia for the evening’s activities. Upon returning, I made sure to check out the speakeasy in the basement—an absolute highlight with its cozy vibe and live music. The next morning, my wife and I strolled along Main Street, enjoying the charm of locally owned shops. We even had the pleasure of meeting Holly, the owner of Hotel Frederick. She previously managed the hotel for years before purchasing it to run as a family business. Her passion for the property is evident in every detail. The rooms are uniquely styled with 1920s flair, thoughtfully updated with modern touches. If you're expecting the luxury of the Waldorf Astoria or the Broadmoor, this may not be the place for you. But if you’re looking for a memorable, character-filled stay with: * A great restaurant and bar on the main floor * A speakeasy with live music on weekends * An antique store right inside the hotel * A classic town diner next door * And the friendliest staff around …then The Fred is your spot. Hotel Frederick is now my go-to place when visiting my son at M-I-Z-Z-O-U! Caveat - If you need perfect conditions for sleep, please bring ear plugs and a sleep mask. Personally, I need some low level noise to sleep, and I am up before the sun. If you are the opposite, the single pain windows and wood blinds do not create silent black out conditions.

Wonderful old hotel charm. Fantastic staff and great bar. Food in the Hotel Frederick was excellent. A truly fun place to stay whether for a long period stay or quick get-a-way.

Cool Historic Hotel Convenient to the Katy Trail Arrived in Boonville after a morning on the Katy Trail and made our way from the trailhead to the hotel. We were a little early for the 4 pm check in so we went down the street for pizza a Breadeaux's, which was very good. We got back around 3:30 and were still able to check in early. Our room was spacious and well appointed. I was traveling with my son and the way the room was set up, we each had our own unique space or "room-within-the-room". The hotel had an ample storage room for bikes for the multitude of cyclists that were staying in the hotel and storage, and retrieval was a breeze. The staff was very friendly throughout the visit. Breakfast amounted to coffee and some fruit and snack bars so mixing my own protein shake in my mini blender in the room was my better option. The location right on the Missouri River was very scenic and very convenient to the bridge over the river to continue the ride along the Katy Trail.

Hotel Frederick was quiet and clean. I especially liked the functional period pieces in the decor, in keeping with the beautiful style of the 1905 building.

historic and comfortable Beautiful historic hotel very nicely renovated, updated cool and quirky. very comfortable. everything looked very well cared for including the lobby and hallways, what looked to be original doors and woodwork and stained glass. so beautiful. the bed and linens were great, and this might sound silly, but I appreciated that they weren't white towels. i asked, and the housekeeper showed us some of the other rooms. Which also looked amazing. stayed here while attending the Missouri state, fair, a little bit of a distance. But worth it
