Jan 2024 We recommend the Gin Hotel which is a vintage hotel with modern - style rooms, with an on- site restaurant (Juniper), in a great location on Main Street, in Lexington, VA. It is walking distance to many restaurants, coffee shops, Just Games game shop, outdoor apparel and camping store Walkabout Outfitter, VMI and Washington and Lee colleges, and so much more. The Gin hotel staff Lindsey and Makayla were friendly, helpful, attentive, and competent. The 5th level story, corner- suites of the Gin offer terrific views of the snowy mountains and shops on Main Street. We stayed in a two - queen bed room for our first two nights and then upgraded to the corner 5th level story suite for our last night. The rooms have a light and airy feel to them. The layout of both is unique. The beds were very comfortable, had great pillows and down comforters which conform to your sleeping position. The King suite has a very large jacuzzi in the bathroom, along with a very modern -style shower, which we loved. There was hot water in abundance! The suite also had a table and 2 chairs, as well as a lounger type comfortable chair which I sat in in front of the window and enjoyed the terrific snow - topped mountain view from. The Gin offers complimentary parking directly behind the hotel. A downfall to the Gin is that there are no mini fridges / microwaves, and breakfast is very limited, but that's ok, because Pronto Caffe (coffee pastry shop) is next door.

A great old hotel that has been updated with modern conveniences. The shower is nice. The room layout is kind of strange, and I'm assuming that's because the hotel was old and refurbished. It was comfortable. They were doing construction on the second floor so I had to give it a small ding for that but otherwise, a good place for the money with plenty of food options within a short walking distance.

Well located and clean but needs some updates.
We stayed at the Gin for a weekend getaway to Lexington, VA. It was hard to identify the hotel because there is no signage outside that you can see from a car that says "Gin Hotel". We figured it out and found the back entrance where there was plenty of parking. The hotel is centrally located in downtown which made walking around very easy. The staff was friendly and helpful and the room was clean, but dated. It was noisy at times and we were woken up on Saturday morning around 5am with the garbage pick-up of the hotel dumpster. The hotel is undergoing renovations, so the decor may be updated soon, but there was no where to hang our towels in the bathroom, so hopefully they can fix that. Also, the breakfast wasn't much, so we ate breakfast out both days. The bar/restaurant looked nice, but we didn't try it.

Convenient location downtown. Free parking. HVAC controls didn't work. Cold breakfast- very limited options, cold coffee, cloudy water, no lighting controls. Tiny TV un-watchable from almost anywhere in the room. Shower design doesn't contain water in the shower basin. These are mostly design and configuration defects not easily corrected.

Disliked: Amenities
The rooms do not have independent temperature controls. We were told to open a window if we were hot. But they did bring up a fan. The carpet needs changing, the safe didn't work, and it is missing some amenities that people have come to expect in mid-range hotels (i.e. no mini fridge or microwave). But it is a charming old building, great location. The staff was polite, the parking good, and the location central to everything in the downtown Lexington, Va area.
