Policies

We want your stay in DuPont Mansion to be a memorable experience. Whether business or pleasure, our goal is to deliver excellent service and to go beyond your expectations.

Reservations are confirmed with a deposit of the total of one night’s stay plus tax or fifty percent of the total of the stay plus tax when reserving more than two nights. Wedding and Special Event deposits vary based on the event.

For overnight stays, Cancellation/Changes made by NOON 14 days prior to the arrival date will receive a refund of the deposit less a $25 (per room) rebooking fee. Cancellations made less than 14 days before the arrival date will forfeit the entire deposit and you will be required to pay the balance owed for the entire reservation. We are a small business and we commit to you that we will be here when you reserve the time. By your reservation, you commit that you will be here for the time of your reservation.

The cancellation time frame is different for special events including: the Kentucky Derby, St. James Court Art Show, Breeder’s Cup and major conventions. A cancellation may result in a forfeit of the entire deposit or reservation total. The Kentucky Derby weekends have a different policy that is outlined for Derby Guests. This policy includes a cancellation fee of 25% of the total reservation amount for cancellation of Breeder’s Cup or the St. James Court Art Show reservations. However, if you cancel less than 1 month before Breeder’s Cup or the St. James Court Art Show then you have forfeited your entire deposit and you will be required to pay for the entire reservation. If you were planning a special event including a wedding then additional cancellation charges will apply ranging from 25% – 100% of the total cost.

Deposit and cancellation / change policies vary for event dates and multiple room bookings.
