We liked the people. We enjoyed dinner 2 nights at the bar downstairs. The rooms were very spacious. I loved the artificially lit fireplace, but only one side worked. Our biggest complaint was the terrible mattress! It was too soft with significant dips. We had to put towels underneath the mattress cover to add back support , Sadly, because of this we will not return.

The hotel is furnished in a classical style with warm wood tone. It'maintained reasonably well and clean. We were given a room that seems to have a leak from the ceiling. Front desk was very quick to assign us to a different room. The bathroom works ok for me but lacks table surface for makeup. The Tap room serves very delicious food and service was excellent. Overall we will return when visiting Shenandoah again

I had stayed as a getaway from the city for my Birthday. It was the perfect place to be. The pool and hottub as well as the whirlpool within the hotel room were amazing. We loved the layout of the hotel. The gym is small but has a treadmill, elliptical and a few weights with a bench. The hotel is well-maintained and very clean. I can not speak of the attached restaurant since we had not tried it. The surrounding city is a cute little town in walkable distance.

Beautiful and charming hotel. Unfortunately, the electric outlets in our room were dead. Two wall outlets only had one of the two plugs working. And the plugs at the desk lamp were too loose to use. With phones, C-Pap, and other electronics, plugs are important to travelers. Hope they correct for the next guest.

The hotel was nice and clean. Bed was comfortable and soft. Probably the nicest hotel in Luray. The only problem we had was the air conditioner wasn’t working properly. The room thermostat was set to 68 and by morning the room temperature was up to 78. It got pretty stuffy in the room. Didn’t have the most comfortable sleep with it being that warm even though the bed was comfortable.

Wonderful historic hotel

This was our second time staying at the Mimslyn. It is a beautiful hotel with lots of history. Setting is amazing at the top of the hill overlooking the town. The suites are large and comfortable and the wine selection available in the lobby is nice. Will stay here again.

As a historic hotel, it was only the outside appearance that felt historic. The rooms are small. The TV is barely large enough within the cabinet and the picture does not even fill the screen. When we asked that someone try to fix that issue, nothing changed. For the price, breakfast was not included. There are other hotel options in the area for far less, and include breakfast, and I would opt to use one of them in the future.
