Wonderful

We appreciated our stay at Oakhurst Inn. The property is in a good location to the University and not far from downtown.
Our room/bathroom was clean and the staff was very helpful. There is not much parking but they provide valet and on-street parking for you.
We were looking for a one-night stay in Charlottesville. It was hot so we basically filtered the search by location/having a pool.
There was a nice looking bar and we had drinks by the pool.
It was a bit of a walk to our building and our room was down a flight of stairs. They did offer to help with our bags. The parking is mandatory valet. Our building was like an old home with solid wood doors and old hardware. I hadn't used a real metal key in a hotel in quite a while but it was fine. It was quiet and there was a nice cafe/restaurant on the property. We only had coffee drinks and food to go but it was nice.
The staff was very knowledable and friendly. I would recommend but be prepared that it's not your standard corporate chain, but that was nice for us.
My wife and I stayed here for two nights for a little getaway weekend in Charlottesville. There is a lot of potential for this place, but it will take a little more effort from management. For example, both air conditioners leaked in our room, likely as a result of dirty filters. The first unit was fixed after we reported the issue, the second one started to leak during our second night. Fortunately, our belongings were fine so it wasn’t a big deal. The situation could have been worse though.
The cafe is pretty good. Nice selection of creative foods. Easy walk to the attractions in Charlottesville.
The pool was nice, but the sauna didn’t work. Just another small example of the missed potential here.
There were no fridges in the rooms, although I knew this going in. This would seem to be another simple upgrade that would really improve the experience.
Overall, though, the place was nice and I would stay there again.
We loved the charm and the friendliness of grounds and staff. Would love for there have to be a more accessible ice machine and maybe a broader selection on the TV channels but other than that no complaints and would go there again.

The A/C was not working properly, towels had blood on them and there was no house keeping services
We stayed overnight for a concert and were plenty happy with the Inn! The property and gardens surrounding the 3 buildings were beautifully curated and well maintained. Check-in, check-out and valet parking were easy and quick. All staff that we encountered were friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious, clean, and the blackout curtains were vital after a late night. I typically bring my own toiletries like shampoo/conditioner/body wash because not all hotels provide ones that are up to par, but I loved the ones provided at Oakhurst- everything smelled wonderful. We didn’t visit the cafe, but had local beers in the bar area before we ventured out for the concert at JPJ. With pre-event traffic, we decided to Uber to the arena (which was a short distance) but walked back to the Inn in an easy 20 minute walk. Would definitely recommend and would stay again!
The property was old, had key entry. The room was clean. The bed was very comfortable. You could see light down the side of the door and underneath. Just needs updating on the doors and a mini fridge. My car was covered in tree sap and we only stayed one night. The employees were super nice and very helpful.

Great location for quick stay. Easy access to UVA.
There for an event at UVA, so location was convenient. Inn has separate buildings located around a cul-de-sac right off busy main thoroughfare. A local resident told us the Inn was originally UVA student housing which explains the “dorm-like “ feel of the room and sitting area. The renovated bathroom was well-done with a European vibe. Highlight was the Oakhurst Inn Cafe with amazing breakfast menu, easily walkable to separate building. Parking was “valet only” as location was in a busy area of the University.
