Elkins Inn & Suites - Elkins, West Virginia

The service was great. The staff at the front desk were kind and accommodating. We truly wanted to like this place, it had some charm for being a older hospital turned into a motel but unfortunately we couldn’t.

We got into our room and it smelled of smoke. We did our normal room inspection that we do when we stay anywhere. The bathroom is very small, sink is outside of the bath and everything is pretty dated. They even had a old “fat back” box tv. The sides of the bed and floor had stains, when we flipped the mattress we saw a “bed bug bomb” (supposedly it kills bed bugs). All on the mattress underside was bed bed eggs and casings. All the sheets had dog hair and other hairs on them. As well as stains, I think they may not of been changed from the last guest. We told have front desk immediately and left. They didn’t seams shocked or surprised. We found a nicer hotel (not motel) for about the same price with no issues.

We are all for supporting local businesses but we couldn’t do it this time. It’s unfortunate.

This hotel is unique in many good ways. It is an experience as well as lodging. When you walk in the spacious lobby the first thing you notice are the spotless grand pianos in various areas with beautiful plants and period leather furniture. Check in was fast and friendly. It is located in a huge repurposed building that used to be a hospital that houses the inn, as well as many professional offices (on other floors). The corridors are wide and the doors and windows are heavy duty which makes it the quietest room I've been in. The rooms are nice, clean and functional. The free breakfast was good and the coffee was strong and tasty. Walking around inside you get to experience the owners eclectic taste which includes many ornate pipe organs. The large gift shop had a nice mix of souvenirs and antiques for purchase. It is located in an area right in town that has many food and shopping options literally across the street and Elkins itself is very pedestrian friendly. If you are like me and like to try new things- give this a whirl! You won't be disappointed!

Was a days inn now independent. Very nice staff. Room small but clean quiet and comfortable. Woman at desk accidentally kept charge and ran it up to our room at. 11 at night. We could have been halfway home without realizing gone. Older but that’s ok. Convenient to town and train.

This hotel is very much underrated. Let me take you back to a day where customer service was the focus. They excel. How about cleanliness and friendliness? Also excel. I am not sure why the bad reviews are here and I have nothing to gain by leaving an HONEST review. This place in Elkins is the only place I will stay from now on when I am here. I am glad they kept the appearance, it does say “hospital” but not in any way a bad way. It gives history and character. I absolutely love the sitting area outside. This place is awesome.

You get what you pay for here. It's dated for sure but overall clean and warm on a cold night. Bathroom reminds me of an old locker room or campground or something but it works. I imagine some of the rooms will have to get some renovations soon if they aren't already. There is a diner attached to the back of the hotel for convenient eating. Speedway and Dollar General right across the street is nice also. Good location only a few minutes from downtown. Nice spot to rest your head if you're passing through.

Dog Friendly. Jason, night clerk, very friendly & helpful... and there was a treat for my doggie. This was my first stay here, and I ended up staying two nights, in two different rooms. First night room had been modernized. Second night I believe the room was original. Bath had ceramic tiled walls & shower, electric wall heater --- I may be weird, but I loved this Retro-bathroom. Both rooms were clean and fresh smelling... Oh, the windows can be opened, cool (bad pun). I enjoyed the fresh air with hint of wood smoke. Cable TV, lots of channels. Internet, Continental breakfast.

The lobby was decorated to the MAX for Christmas, Beautiful. Just being in West Virginia, where Christmas is celebrated and Veterans Memorial are decorated... Well It Just Made My Heart Feel Good. As my 94 year old, Elkins native, father would say, "West 'by GOD' Virginia", and I agree.

Cool place. Although this hotel is a converted hospital from 1984 you certainly can’t tell it’s 35 years old based on the amazing upkeep that’s been done.
This place is a throwback but everything is in AMAZING condition and SUPER clean.
Yeah, the TV sucks and the sink is in the sleeping area but it’s a converted hospital. For the low price of the room it’s above and beyond.

If you want modern and fancy go to Hampton Inn. If you want safe, clean and affordable then this place is worth going to.

Very out of date and it obvious it was a hospital at one point felt like I was in the movie "Shining" as I walked down the halls lol. However besides that customer service was great they were very nice and accommodating also allow pets. It was very clean beds very comfy nice size rooms loved the shower good water pressure and the shower curtain was heavy so I didn't have to fight with it to stay in place. As you can see very pretty Christmas decorations.
