Welcome to the Shenandoah Valley Inn, a magnificent Colonial Revival mansion located in the historic Gospel Hill District of Staunton, just recently opened under new management. Purchased in the summer of 2006, the Inn has been painstakingly restored and refurbished to the smallest details. Each of the four guest rooms/suites are luxuriously appointed with fine linens, a queen-size bed, private bath, writing desk, telephone, reading lamps, flat screen cable TV, DVD, CD/alarm/radio, hairdryer and air conditioning. Two rooms have fireplaces and for the convenience of business travelers, a photo copier, fax and wi-fi Internet connections are available.

The public rooms are well-proportioned and inviting. The elegant living room has an exquisite crystal chandelier, fireplace and French doors that lead out to the wrap-around veranda, a perfect place for early evening cocktails or that last cup of morning tea or coffee. Guests enjoy quiet conversation in this splendid room and a grand piano is just waiting to be played.

Across the wide foyer with its grand winding staircase is the library. The owner's large collection of books will delight even the most voracious reader. There are also board games, cards, and a vast selection of DVD's and CD's. Guests seem to naturally gravitate to the library for reading , writing and listening to music.

Adjacent to the library, is the spacious formal dining room. In the morning, descend the grand staircase and enjoy a sumptuous gourmet breakfast served in the dining room enhanced by the soft morning light. Overlooking the gardens, it is graced with a crystal chandelier and fireplace. Individual tables for two or four, set with vintage china, crisp linens, sparking crystal stemware and gleaming silver provide the option of private dining or for chatting with fellow guests.

Glorious gardens that have been on the Garden Club tours for many years are a joy to experience, terraced on several levels with meandering paths that lead to three ponds and a swing where all one hears is the babbling water and the songs of a variety of birds.

We cordially invite you to journey back to an era filled with beauty, serenity, and romance. Once here, you'll discover for yourself why Shenandoah Valley Inn is Staunton's premier Inn. We look forward to your visit.

We intend your stay with us will be the first of many.
