Loved it!! The property is well maintained and very relaxing and enjoyable. We took lots of pictures! Two very small drawbacks- our bed mattress was very, very soft and lumpy. Also, in the Wellington Restaurant there was a fair amount of dirt/waste under the work station near hostess stand. The rest of the restaurant was spotless!

It was amazing! Located in downtown area so little drive to make it to downtown parking where you can walk to every thing. Great view of the ETSU campus.

I’ve stayed at the Carnegie Hotel several times, and each visit has been excellent. From the moment you arrive, the staff makes you feel welcome with their kindness and professionalism. The rooms are always spotless and well maintained, and the beds are truly exceptional — easily the most comfortable I’ve experienced at any hotel. I always wake up feeling rested and ready for the day, which says a lot about the quality of their accommodations. Another highlight is the hotel’s restaurant and bar. If you enjoy bourbon, this is a must-visit. They offer an impressive selection with something for every taste, and the pricing is very reasonable compared to what you’d expect elsewhere. It’s a great place to unwind after a long day or enjoy a relaxed evening without even leaving the property. While the Carnegie isn’t the cheapest hotel option, the overall experience makes it more than worth the price. The combination of friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and excellent dining options keeps me coming back time and time again. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stay that balances comfort, service, and value.
