Erin and Ben Napier, the stars of HGTV’s Home Town, are opening up about what’s next after the hotel they renovated in Laurel, Mississippi, suffered severe fire and water damage.
The couple — who host the hit series where they restore historic homes — completed their extensive renovations on The Heirloom Hotel last year, with the help of their friends and the building’s owners, Josh and Emily Nowell, and Jim and Mallorie Rasberry. However, a fire broke out on the top floor due to an electrical issue in August 2025 and severely damaged the space, only days before its scheduled grand opening.
