Book a Clifton Forge Cottage

"Great location in town, 15 minutes walk to VMI. Clean rooms, nice bathroom, bar and restaurant has a large outdoor space. Breakfast is included, basic but fine."

"This is a very historical building so it is old…older than America from what I was told! Food was incredible. We ate at Woodys, Rubinos, Jefferson’s and the American Audubon. All amazing. Martha’s and the Spa food…6/10 Spa services - amazing Staff- so kind We did a sound bath at the natural springs, highly recommend. We also did the river gorge hiking trail and Mr Brian was super welcoming and funny. We enjoyed our hike! Overall it was an amazing location if you’re looking to unwind and relax in stillness with nature. "

"The staff was very helpful and friendly. The cleanliness of the room was questionable. Several areas of mildew on the bathroom walls and hair on the floor upon checkin. I definitely think there could be better housekeeping and maintenance. "

"Nothing special but it served its purpose."

"Staff was nice. Bed was awful, had a backache the entire time I stayed. Pool and hot tub had so much chlorine it literally burned my eyes within five minutes. I know it’s a pet friendly hotel but there was a dog across the hall that barked at all hours. I believe the owners were warned but it didn’t stop anything. At what point does pet friendly trump other guests relaxation?"

"Unique Hampton Inn in a beautiful setting and convenient to urgent needs shopping and local hospital. Breakfast staff, especially Casey, was attentive and helpful, but the check-in staff, not so much."

"The towels were very soft. The heated pool was very nice. The breakfast best yet, the tables kept clean and the added bonus of pancakes excellent. It was a pleasurable stay."

"Yes"

"Best staff ever! They are all very friendly and helpful! Attentive and respectful to guests. Big Thanks to the staff on duty on April 25-26, 2026!"
