This was the cutest boutique hotel! In the Middle of the best part of Fredericksburg. The staff were oh so welcoming, a very nice compliment to The charming facility. We are like stay here again hands down over a more ‘contemporary’ stay in a chain elsewhere.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The Inn has been there since the mid to late 1700s, and served a decisive purpose during the Battle of Fredericksburg during the Civil War. The facility is very nicely decorated with mostly period-style furnishings, with very comfortable beds. The other accouterments, such as the wine and cheese charcouterie board and the early departure breakfast, made our very short stay a pleasant experience.

10/10 Exceptional

The Richard Johnston Inn is a historic inn with loads of charm. We stayed in the Virginian room, furnished with antiques and modern amenities, alike. The Inn is supposed to be haunted but we felt no ghostly presence! Rather, the warm welcome from the super friendly and efficient staff, plus the delicious, freshly cooked breakfast, made us feel completely at home. Highly recommended for a short getaway or as a base for exploring the surrounding area.

From the moment we arrived, it was a welcoming, friendly environment! We toured the Inn, which is beautiful and clean. There were delicious cookies in the dining room. The room was clean. The historic vibes were amazing. The bathroom was clean. It is in the perfect location. You just walk outside, and you are on the main street, yet it's still very quiet at night. Parking was easy. The courtyard out back is well-maintained and a nice place to relax at the end of the day. Breakfast was delicious. Everyone was extremely friendly! I cannot recommend this place anymore!
