For something different
Very interesting history to this Inn, it will appeal to some folks just for that reason, but it is lovely, clean and modernized. Beautiful setting in Staunton and within walking distance of downtown and restaurants.

Blackburn is the best!
We are caretakers for my daddy and my brother is a pastor near the Blackburn. He provides a respite weekend every Easter so was our second stay here. Everything was wonderful - friendly staff, beautiful setting, and clean room! It's a great place to just get away from the stress of living 🙂 I highly recommend!

Spring weekend in Shenandoah valleys
Interesting unique historical setting. Our room was spacious and comfortable and quiet. Just a walk or short ride to downtown restaurants and shops, Shakespeare playhouse, etc. We were disappointed that bistro/bar onsite wasn't open.

Wonderful hotel in the Shenandoah Valley
The facility was marvelous, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable. I enjoyed the reading room, which had very comfortable seating. The grounds are wonderful, and the view from the tower is amazing. The town of Staunton is so full of history and beautiful architecture.

The stay was wonderful. Good, friendly service. The only thing that would have made the stay better was if there had been at least 4 towels and wash clothes in the bathroom.
