The building is really cool, aesthetics are on point. Easy parking.

I found it a bit hard to sleep well due to noise. Lots of popping and cracking (an old building, it happens) but also just every sound from the hallways. Also there's no noise barrier of your room and your bathroom which can be a bit awkward depending who you stay with. Stayed 4 nights and never had anyone clean the room or change out towels, despite having a sign on the door. But the front desk worker did bring some up when I requested. But often no one was a the front desk which was a bit of annoyance as well. I'm sure they were covering multiple duties but a little frustrating to have to wait several minutes at check in, check out when my door locked early, etc.

What a great weekend we had from the beautiful grounds to their towering crows nest. WOW. Upon checking in we met Amber who was very pleasant and personal asking what brought us to the Blackburn Inn. I told her it was a weekend for my wife’s birthday. She immediately made us feel at home and went out of her way to make us feel warm and welcomed. Later that evening we were having a small cake and needed plates and forks and that request was handled with grace and kindness. Unfortunately I forgot the young ladies name but she was the night receptionist/manager. Amber suggested the Crowd nest on the fourth floor which gave a beautiful view of Staunton. The spiral staircase was a great adventure that we enjoyed. The grounds were beautifully landscaped and we enjoyed walking over them.

I found that the bistro’s hours on Sunday a bit confusing.

The breakfast was wonderful. The location was great. The staff was very friendly.

We had a problem with the room we were assigned. The pull out sofa bed was wet. The staff was not sure they had another room to move us to, but found once which was very nice. We had to request that something be done for the room issue. Breakfast vouchers were given and we were very appreciative of that but should not have had to ask for something to be done, that should have been done automatically in our opinion. Manager tried calling a day or two later, but we missed the call. We called back and left a voicemail asking her to call us, but never heard back.

I enjoyed the history of the Blackburn Inn and conference center. I was impressed by the staircase that led to the roof and to be able to see the surrounding areas from the roof The bathroom was very modern in design which did not take away from the history. I was impressed with the design on the website which led to picking this property for a get together with my family. There is a Bristol Café, which I enjoyed the next morning before leaving for home. The Bristol Café was also included in the website design.

I enjoyed the modern bathroom, the staircase leading up to the roof to overlook scenery. I also enjoy the Café which offered a keto diet, which was impressive.

Very reasonable price for the room. The bed was very comfortable and that means alot. I usually don't like hotel beds or the pillows, but this one was great! The bathroom was very beautifully decorated and large. I loved the beauty of the place and the "old" feel to it. The grounds were beautiful and well-maintained.

It is an old building, so there was alot of echo when people talked, but it wasn't too bad. Despite the echo in the building, it was quiet at night and I was able to sleep well.

Very high quality linens and towels. Comfortable bed. Easy parking. Lovely location. Beautiful grounds. Lots of seating areas spread through a stunning historic building. Spacious and comfortable bathroom. Lots of windows. Very clean. Do check out the spiral stairs on the top floor.

Restaurant was fine but nothing exciting. Service was great but bring cash to tip as there was no easy way to add a tip to the bill. In room coffee was a Keurig with a weak pod, no coffee additions and no tea option. Room was a bit of an odd shape but a creative reuse of an old building sort of limited the options.

The front desk employee, Amber, was awesome and so welcoming and told us cool stories about the property which I absolutely loved since that was mainly why we stayed there — for the history! Our room was so big, such a comfy bed, amazing shower/large bathroom, and the property and the hotel building itself was absolutely amazing to walk around. I highly recommend this place! Not to mention, close to delicious food like cute retro restaurants like Wright’s Dairy-Rite, Kathy’s and downtown Staunton things like Redbeard, Cider’s from Mars, Reunion Bakery, and more.

The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The facility was just as gorgeous as the pictures, if not better. The rooms and bathrooms were beautiful, spacious, and clean, and we had such a charming view. We stayed here during our trip to Shenandoah NP since it was so close to the park entrance, so it was wonderful to hike all day and then come back to such a comfy bed each night.

They could add better signage to indicate their parking, leading to where to check in with the front desk, as it was a little challenging for us to find for our first time. We also had a little sugar ant issue in the room but we had no food, so I assume that was mostly from the age of the room/ building.

Really neat place with a lot of character due to it's old nature. The staircase to the observation area was very fun to traverse. Enjoy and had no issues with the rain shower. The receptionist at the time was actually very receptive and gave us a bunch of fun tips about the city since we had not been there. Seemingly like a fan of where she lived, not as a mandatory requirement.

Only issue was that we are on the basement near the stairs and afterward realized that our area was very exposed to transferring our own noises. We intended on a romantic getaway and we succeeded. However, afterward we were slightly embarrassed of what others might have heard.

Beautiful property with a unique history! We loved how dog friendly it was, and how everyone was so kind to our pup. Our room was spacious and I adored the soaking tub. Walkable to the town. Great parking! I highly recommend.

Beds were too soft for my taste, and wish they had an option besides a queen (felt a little too cozy for me and my partner and our pup). Also, we asked for our linens to be changed once, and the housekeeping forgot to, which was kind of a bummer. Staff were great in providing linens though, but we did wish we had a room cleaning.
