Offutt House Bed & Breakfast is a charming Victorian-era property at 140 N 39th Street in Omaha's historic Midtown Crossing neighborhood, offering an intimate alternative to the city's conventional hotel offerings. The house takes its name from the Offutt family, prominent in the area's early settlement history, and its restored exterior and period-furnished interior reflect the architectural character of Omaha's late nineteenth-century residential golden age. The property sits just blocks from Kimpton Cottonwood Hotel territory in a neighborhood of mature trees, historic homes, and walkable proximity to Dundee and Benson districts.
Guest accommodations are organized into three distinct room types — the Victorian Room with period antique furnishings, the Garden Room with views to the outdoor garden, and the Carriage House Suite in the adjacent converted outbuilding — providing a range of intimacy levels and space configurations. A full breakfast is included in all stays, prepared fresh each morning and served in the dining room. The garden serves as a peaceful outdoor retreat in warmer months. Free WiFi and complimentary on-site parking are provided, aligning the property's practical convenience with its boutique positioning.
The Offutt House's Midtown location places guests within a reasonable drive or extended walk of the Old Market, Dundee's independent restaurant scene, Benson's art and live music corridor, and the Henry Doorly Zoo. The property's intimate scale and personal service ethic distinguish it sharply from chain properties, making it particularly popular with couples celebrating anniversaries or special occasions, solo travelers seeking a quieter residential neighborhood experience, and visitors to Creighton University or UNMC medical campus. Nebraska's largest city reveals a different character when explored from a genuine historic bed and breakfast rather than a downtown convention hotel.
