I loved this hotel and this town so much that I extended my stay for a third night. My room was…read moreclean, comfortable, and well laid out. Just complete the check-in paperwork online ahead of time as requested, give them your mobile number, and you'll be able to access your room and the historic building itself on your own with the codes they will text you. And with free parking, from the hotel you'll be able to walk everywhere in this beautiful, historic, university town in about 10 minutes or less - taking full advantage of its restaurants, shops, and gold museum. But oh, that paperwork!... It was really off-putting, with all these warnings about rules and penalties for breaking them (including fines and eviction for repeated noise complaints - although that's actually just fine with me). As the staff pointed out, though, everything prohibited has actually happened in the hotel. It turns out that Dahlonega is really two kinds of town - the sleepy town that I fell in love with, but sometime a party town! So if you're looking for the former, I recommend missing the mid-October Gold Rush festival, the Christmas festival, and (if you can find out) any destination-wedding dates.

Within minutes of checking in, the "faux" doorknob fell off. Leaving a hole in our door. My husband went to the hotel to tell them. The guy came straight over. After 1.5 hrs he suggested moving us to a room at the hotel, because he'd have to go to home depot to fix it. We agreed. I looked up the room difference. Rooms for king that night and next ran $119. We moved. And stayed. At checkout they offered me a $39 discount.??? Room difference was $39 a night? They said it was because they were booked and that's the rate? But they were not booked! And it was not my problem the door handle fell apart! They never attempted to fix anything, but the door handle that fell off... and I apparently paid for. Stir clear! Not a relaxing stay!

They didn't bring us rolls or cornbread until the very end when we asked for it. We didn't know you could get those until we saw other tables get them. The dessert was just okay and not a good finish (strawberry shortcake)...it felt a little cheap. I wished they gave us this home-cooked tasting cobbler or something...it must have been another day. Their shortcake needs more "home cooking feel".

You can find this Holiday Inn Express at 32 E Main St Dahlonega, GA 30533, basically "on the…read moresquare" in "downtown" Dahlonega. There's plenty of free parking all around, but I opted to park in the hotel's parking deck(s) - there are two with two different access points, one on the side and the other around the back of the building. In all this Holiday Inn Express was much like others I've visited - it's relatively clean with nice staff and modern fixtures. I had a room with a king-sized bed as I was traveling solo - the room was a bit weird as it was obviously designed with two beds in mind - the back half by the window was essentially empty except for a chaise. On the one hand, I liked all the room but on the other hand, I think they could have placed a desk or something a bit more useful back there (coffee table and seating, maybe) - but that's a quibble. I looked over the room a bit while there and the finishes were slightly sub-par, but overall not bad. The thermostat kept the room somewhat icy cold - I had to turn it up above 70 to make it comfortable. There are charge ports conveniently located at the night stands and a coffee maker and small fridge, typical of "suite" style hotels. The coffee machine downstairs is always available and serves better coffee so I'd recommend it over what's in the room. Breakfast included most of what you'd expect - bacon, sausage, small quiche-like baked eggs. I kept things light. On checkout, if you're an IHG member you get to spin a wheel for a free gift - in my case a free chocolate from a nearby store (which opened after my leaving so I ended up giving it to someone else visiting). Staff were efficient and answered all my questions. There's a pool and workout room in the basement - filtered water is available in the workout room.

In summary, what a beautiful setting, excellent service, delicious food, charming drinks, with every one of the staff members (owners included) just waiting to coddle and take care of your every whim and desire. Finding the Lodge the first time was a little challenging but just trust the GPS even though it looks like you're heading onto someone's property, stay on the road until you reach the top. Once there, be prepared to be pampered. The road up is a tad narrow, and when we arrived it was covered in leaves (we hit prime color change/leaf dropping) but it's not bad. The rest of the time the road was well cleared with turn-outs obvious and useful if needed (we didn't need one during travels in and out). We stayed in a room on the 1st floor at the end of the hall with a nice sitting room and patio with a beautiful view of the wooded hillside. The room was nice, fully functional and one nice feature were motion lights under the bed such that if you get up during the night you're not stumbling around to find the bathroom door. Loved that. They have a bar with well made drinks and a nice cozy sitting area with a fireplace and comfortable chairs we used to chat with the staff who helped fine tune our winery stops. They have a 'snack bar' (my term) complete with various snacks, cold drinks, a coffee drink, and freshly made cookies each day. Oh, and they will point out a nice little file box with room numbers with homemade candy that magically appears each afternoon! A delicious and generous breakfast is included that is FAR from the typical powered scrambled eggs, paper thin bacon (you know what I'm talkin' about!). No, this is a freshly made frittata, the best home fries I've ever had, fresh cut fruit and more. Great start to each day! They have an outdoor seating area complete with lights, an abundance of bar height chairs/tables, Adirondack chairs, and fire pits. A great way to spend an evening at sunset sipping your wine/cocktails and talking the evening away. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that we opted for the five-course prix fixe dinner in their large communal dining area known as "Wit & Wisdom". It was a great way to mingle with other guests, share stories, compare winery travels, and just share time and conversation. This alone was worth the price of admission! We added the wine pairing so we went all in, and we felt that we certainly got our money's worth out of it! Kicking it off with an Amuse-Bouche and wrapping up the next five-courses, while they appear small, we were absolutely stuffed when we were done. The wines were outstanding and it turned out to literally be the perfect ending to our glorious stay with owners Tommy & Heather and the entire staff that made sure we were fed, comfortable, and part of the Mountain Top 'family'. As I loaded the pictures, I realize I have to give a shout-out to Topher and the crew in the kitchen! You all demonstrate exceptional service and skill. Well Done!!!

What a quaint and such fun place tucked away in the mountains! From the time we arrived the staff ( Megan) was beyond welcoming. From the cookies to the champagne it was very special. Our room was perfect! Just what I needed for a get away. Well we went off for dinner for at night and decided to take an Uber since it was New Year's Eve and we were not familiar with the area. When it came time to leave , our uber never showed up! We tried again and again to no avail! Called the one and only taxi in the town and she was unable to give us any definite answer. My last hope was to call the lodge . I felt terrible as it was getting later by the minute. It was their New Year's celebration going on. No one was able to answer so I left a message for their manager Sean hoping at 11:00 anyone would even be there to respond. Not even 5 minutes later Sean sent a text asking if we still needed help . This guy went above and beyond to help us out. He was there within minutes and got us back to the resort in time to celebrate with the other guests to bring in the new year! This place is a gem. We will definitely be back every year! They have covered every little detail here to make it special for each guests. Thank you again Sean for making this trip an awesome time! We will definitely be back!

The bathroom towels were soft and the toilet tissue was Charmin's best, not the type that dissolves in your nether parts. You will need to understand that the floors and stairs leading up to the room are the original wooden floors of a structure built in 1884, so squeaking comes with the package. If you love places with lots of character then this is for you! Mike is an exceptional host who is very responsive and lets guests check in early if the room is ready. The location is right across the street from the park and a short three minute walk into the town square. You won't be disappointed if you stay here!

My only complaint was that the bed was not very comfortable- a little bit on the stiff side.

Our one regret is not booking another night. Location is convenient to everything - the restaurants, the shops, and the wineries. Most wineries are only 10-15 minutes away from the inn.

We loved how the living room is completely separate from the bedroom. Even the AC units are separate. We were able to control the room temperatures to our liking and close the door in between. We all slept comfortably. Due to Covid, check in and check out are all done by phone and went smoothly. The room was left open for us with the keys and instructions right by the door. Continental breakfast is available at their event space. Though we didn't indulge, it looked pretty fresh and yummy. The event space is beautiful and perfect for more intimate weddings and occasions.

The restaurant below - Bourbon St. Grille - closes early, so no one will be keeping you up late. We heard that Sara's Room was haunted, but other than the overhead light turning itself on sometime in the middle of the night, we didn't experience anything spooky.
