The proprietors, Jennifer and Greg, were wonderful to work with and accommodated our special requests to help make our wedding everything we had dreamed of. The appetizers, dinner, and specialty cocktails were all beautifully prepared and received rave reviews from our guests. Those who stayed in the inn and apartments commented on the charming accommodations and especially appreciated the comfortable beds. We fell in love with the home's stunning architecture and antique furnishings, which blend seamlessly with modern comforts and amenities. Our international guests were particularly enchanted by the house, saying that this more than 100-year-old Virginia home was exactly what they had imagined when picturing the historic beauty and charm of Virginia. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting for our wedding celebration and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique, elegant, and memorable venue.

Apparently the term "boutique hotel" means it operates a bit on the margins. The structure felt old but solidly built and my room was renovated nicely. Other reviewers seemed to have had issues with AC, but mine worked well during some robust summer heat. It was a comfortable room that I spent plenty of time in. The fact that they send you a code remotely to check in is convenient, but not having a regular on-site person to talk to felt a little strange. The kayaks they offered looked a little old but functional. I didn't get around to taking one but other people did and it looked like a nice little inlet to kayak in. The titular pier has a good view, and I observed ample sea life in the estuarine waters that I came to experience. Sightings will vary of course, but if you want to see a blue crab I think your chances are pretty high.

I was so excited to stay here. I loved the themed rooms and although the decor was adorable we were…read moreextremely disappointed. First off, the plumbing was a nightmare. Our toilet clogged several times. Luckily the first time the cleaning lady was on site and provided us a plunger. The shower drained so slowly that it would fill up with water every time we used it. Housekeeping service was non-existent. Our trash piled up and after two days we had to track down a maid to get fresh towels. I'm assuming she was there to clean a recently vacated room as that was the first time we had seen her since day 1. When we initially checked in, we were given only two towels, one washcloth, and one hand towel. Cleanliness was also a big issue. We battled gnats the entire stay. Also, when we first walked in, I ran directly into a spider web, which we shrugged off, but on the last day, a spider crawled into my husband's ear while he was sleeping! That was absolutely horrifying. The grounds of the hotel were equally neglected. The flowerbeds were overgrown and looked like they hadn't been tended to in ages. The outside trash can was overflowing, with room trash that guests were emptying themselves. If you are looking for good food, head to Salt Waterfront Kitchen down the road. Overall, the poor maintenance, lack of cleanliness, and subpar service made this stay one of the worst we've ever had.

Modern but still captured the old coastal feel. It was super musty and smelled like it. There was a dehumidifier but it was so small, in two nights we actually had to dump the water bucket 4 times. And if we left all day, we came back to a damp room. I'm not sure what causes that - we live in a super humid area and don't have the same issue, but maybe a larger humidifier would help. The breakfasts were fantastic - you can order anything off their restaurant menu. I didn't have anything bad, everything was super fresh and came in huge portions. I do wish they had an espresso machine but the coffee was okay. Check out was also a breeze. This isn't a luxury location, my main complaint was the price for it feels steep, but it's one of the only spots in the area which is probably why they can charge so much. Overall, a great stay and I would definitely come back here if I was in the area again.

This Inn was absolutely phenomenal. I can't recommend it enough…read more Initially, everything is beautiful and clean. While there, I saw them dusting the window eaves. There are free snacks, sodas, and high-end coffee in your room, and lots of other little treats too. And the nature surrounding the Inn is immaculate. I spent every night on my balcony under the stars, surrounded by lush vegetation and gorgeous water. Beyond the rooms, the facilities are nice. There's a small, but beautiful beach, as well as a small area to swim in the "creek" (the creek is more of a river, and it all feeds into the Rappahannock). There's a boardwalk that rings around the property (which is where I spotted plenty of fish and a crab. And of course, the resort's star attraction, thousands of oysters, which you can join a program to shuck them). They have a marina and are even doing plane rides now. There's an art room offering all sorts of project from paint to clay. It's also a short walk into town and the handful of local restaurants. Finally, an excellent instructor taught me and a few friends how to play pickleball. He was patient and encouraging... while also kicking our butts when we played him LOL! The food was good, with some of the best mushroom ravioli I've had. The bartenders were all nice and engaging, making all sorts of drinks. They have a sommelier on site that runs the wine and liquor program. They also had an exquisitely buttered soft pretzel that I loved. I really appreciated that, on my last day, I asked if I could go on their afternoon boat ride. They said they usually required 24 hour notice, and nobody else had signed up. Nonetheless, they accommodated me and I basically got a private boat tour for group prices (yay for Wed. afternoon availability). I had a fun afternoon exploring the creek and river. To be honest, this level of excellent quality is a rarity in older hotels like this. I've been to more than a few and have, more often than not, found them to have let space deteriorate, provide inconsistent amenities, and uninspired food. Which is absolutely not the case here. Good food, great rooms, service, and amenities, and phenomenal views. A true 5 star stay!

We got upgraded to a suite at checkin and at every step the rooms, the food and the staff were great. We sat in chairs and watched the river go by while reading for a couple of hours. Napped and then went to the pool bar for lunch and beers. Breakfast was great both days, the crab omelet was great. The dinner menu was a little too fine dining for me, but there are local places you can get to within a few minutes. The crowd when we visited was older and really really white. I don't know if that was a function of the day/date timeframe or the cost, we got a discounted via Amex but it was pretty weird that 100% of the guests were white and 98% of the staff wasn't.

I recently escaped to Atherston Hall during Inauguration weekend. I wanted somewhere far away, and…read moreboy, did I get it. I didn't even have cell service, which, to me was wonderful. They had free wireless internet, so you can have some contact with the outside world if you like. This is a classic B&B, decorated in very soothing colors and liveable antiques. Coffee was put out early every morning, and the breakfasts were filling and tasty- with the highlights being what was made there- homemade granola and fresh preserves (jam). Bill makes great omlettes and bacon as well! The two labs, Abbey and Savana are sweeties, but only seemed to get used to us after 3 nights. They are protective and will bark, but in a way as to welcome you home. A quick rub behind the ears and they miraculously remember you. Urbanna itself is SMALL, so make sure you have activities beyond tea and breakfast- we just used the wireless to plan our outings each day. I was pleasantly surprised that our pet-friendly room not only had a door to the back garden (so you dont run through and disturb other guests) but there was no additional fee/rent. That combined with the great breakfasts make it very reasonable. I will be returning soon! p.s. location is wrong on map- located 1 block from Cross and Virginia Streets near the town center.
