Woldert-Spence Manor

Mike and Barbara were great hosts from start to finish, the Woldert-Spence Manor is an amazing place with a very interesting history. Breakfast was made fresh each morning by Barbara and we had a great time chatting about our mutual shared travels and a lot more. Room was large and spacious and the bed very comfortable. There were plenty of complimentary tea and coffee available in the dining room all day long with some nice food treats as well. The gated parking area worked well and the digital lock access to the house and room also worked very well. Location was ideal for all that Tyler has to offer along with the surrounding area, and only a five minute drive to the excellent rose gardens, plus plenty of nice food outlets a short drive away. The Woldert-Spence Manor is a rare 5 star experience not to be missed if you are in the area. 10 out of 10 for this place and have already recommended it to our Texas friends.

The owners are lovely people. They took good care of my needs, and filled me in on some of the unique things about this historic home. It was filled with beautiful furnishings. Excellent hospitality.

Came to town for a wedding and had a lovely stay at the Manor. It was nice and quite. The breakfast so very filling and delicious with a choice of drinks. If you do book a room with extras make sure to get conformation before you get there. It can be very disappointing to find out the order didn't go through. They're the nicest loving couple, that make you feel like you've come home!

Mike and Barbara are very welcoming hosts and the house is beautiful and well-kept. Breakfasts were large and excellent. Barbara was very good about communicating with us in advance of our stay. Every room is unique. Our party stayed in the rooms that are upstairs.

My husband and I had a lovely couple of days, staying at this B&B in Tyler. Barbara made us feel very welcome & was a true hostess. Barbara cooked the most amazing breakfasts, that kept us going strong everyday, as we spent our time hiking the Tyler State Park & exploring the Tyler Rose gardens.

We enjoyed our time here very much. We loved the historical stories and facts shared about the home. We had great conversations over excellent breakfast each day. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly. Will stay here again when we return to Tyler.

This was our first visit to Tyler, in North East TX and we were glad to choose this historic house to stay during our 3 days visit. The room we stayed in was clean and functional, although a bit small for 2 people, it is the Robert Spence Jr room. We gave 4.5 stars for the room but 5 stars to Barbara & Mike for their hospitality. Barb is an excellent cook and we enjoyed so much the friendly and cozy time each morning when we ate breakfast, chatted and shared our activities with them and other guests. We also liked the environment, seems like the house locates in a historic district where there are sections of red brick roads, at night we felt secure to park inside a locked gate. If you like a warm and friendly place with an air of antique past, this place and their hosts are for you. as for us we would come back to Woldert-Spence Manor for our next visit but want to try another larger room. Thank you Barbara and Mike! Kim & Quang

We had such a great experience here. Everything from parking and location, to meeting the owners who took exceptional care of us, to the huge room, and the wonderful breakfast have us wanting to come back.

My wife and I greatly enjoyed our time at this historic home in Tyler Texas. Barb & Mike are wonderful and top notch hosts. We enjoyed spending time with them at breakfast. 5 Stars on the breakfasts served and the fellowship in their dining room. If you love history, antiques, comfortable rooms, and a quaint garden setting, this is your place to stay while visiting Tyler.
