Huffman House Bed and Breakfast is located in the historic district of Minden, Louisiana and it’s a short walk to Minden’s Business District. Each evening we at the Huffman House have a special treat for our arriving guests, the staff prepares a welcoming specialty herb tea and a little something for that sweet tooth. If you’re looking for more social interaction each evening our guests are invited to the theater room for special showing of a recently released film and of course popcorn is included at no additional cost. If you expect to arrive hungry you can always call ahead and take advantage of our in room dining or have a fresh fruit assorted cheeses and crackers delivered ahead of your arrival accompanied by a bottle of wine (call ahead to request pricing for in room dining). The History Of Huffman House Bed and Breakfast The Huffman House Bed and Breakfast is a Queen Ann Revival home, that was built by Mr. J.H. Nelson in 1918 on the site of the 1870 Reams house. Wood and architectural pieces from the original home was used in the construction of the much larger Nelson homestead. Currently the Huffman home has over 5100 ft.² in the main living quarters with the adjacent pool house adding an additional 300 ft.² plus a second full kitchen. Kimberly and James Huffman purchased this home in 2015 and begin a cosmetic renovation to freshen this grand old historic home. Kimberly and James both hoteliers by trade secured the proper documentation and permits to transform this grand historic home into a Luxury Micro Inn / Bed and Breakfast in the downtown Minden Historic District in June of 2015, and at that time formed Huffman Management, LLC as the operating entity . The Huffman House B&B is now renting rooms and has received outstanding reviews for its guests.

Hotel Tips
Call ahead to make sure your reservation is still active and rebook if there are any price drops or changes in number of people staying with you. Another cost saving tips is to bundle the stay with airport parking and shuttle to avoid hefty fees.
Upon check-in, slip the desk agent a tip and ask for the best room they can find at your current booked rate. Often times a quick $10 or $20 bill can go a long way towards the mood of the person who directly decides where you lay your head for the night.
Not all online booking systems are fully integrated with hotel reservations systems so there is a chance that smaller hotels are hand entering your stay from a fax machine which leaves room for errors. Book directly with hotel to avoid any problems and ask for a price match if you find a better price online.
