It is an absolutely beautiful hotel, right downtown so everything is walkable, the staff were amazing, beds were comfy, shower was wonderful. It was really such a great experience.

We went out of our way to stay here after two years on our way to North Carolina. We love it so much the only problems that we ran into were the breakfast taking a very long time for some simple items and the server wasn’t super friendly, but we had dinner there and drinks and we got bumped from a deluxe queen double to a king room and they gave us two free drink vouchers and free breakfast which made up for it so it was great overall

My wife and I stayed in this hotel for a weekend trip to Fredericksburg. The staff were friendly, and were able to check us in early so we could drop off bags and explore. The hotel is in a fantastic location, surrounded by great restaurants and antique stores. The hotel itself was clean, quiet, and comfortable.
