The hotel is beautiful in a large estate-like property so it is very grand. The area is quiet but close to the town. You can walk to town (about 12 minute walk). The room was small (we got the classic room) but comfortable since we didn't spent much time there as we were in town most of the day. I would stay there again. It has great history.

Comfortable historic hotel

Visited for one night with family. Hotel was beautiful, room was spacious and clean. Had breakfast at their cafe and it was delicious. Staff were very friendly and helped in recommending places to eat for dinner.

The room was awful. Located in the basement with windows overlooking an alley. Cement floors with no covering. Tiny space. Ten inches on one side of the bed to the wall. No chair because there was no room. Ill fitting sheets that were not even tucked under the mattress. Restaurant not open for lunch or dinner and nothing within walking distance. I would never book this hotel again

Such a beautiful hotel! And the staff we encountered were super friendly and answered all our probing questions! Thank you Brooklyn, AnnaMaria, and the other ladies at the front desk! Very convenient, just a short walk to everything in town! Highly recommend staying here!

I have no idea why they call the Blackburn Inn an “inn.” My room was ok and the property is nice and conveniently near Staunton. But the establishment is large and impersonal with few staff in evidence. You might as well stay at a Holiday Inn.

Nice, quaint property. Hardwood floors and nice view. Only concern is that there are some rooms on the 4th floor which isn't accessible via the elevator.

Overall experience was fantastic. Staff was friendly. Service was great. Room was clean & ready. Bed was very comfy. The only complaint I have, which is super minor and obviously due to the age, is that some flooring and other surfaces are super worn. Realistically you're fine to walk around bare foot, there's just some uneven spots and the super unlikely chance you may get a splinter or hit a nail sticking up.
