The 10 best Bed and Breakfast Inns in West Virginia, United States

April 19, 2023 Enedina Augsburger

As you would expect, The Mountain State displays rustic charm with dramatic river gorges, large limestone caverns and spectacular mountain views. West Virginia hosts outdoor enthusiasts and family vacationers looking for fresh-air activities and serene mountain atmosphere. If stimulating city holidays are your preference, Charleston combines warm hospitality with a lovely riverside location. A family-friendly destination, you’ll discover children’s theatre, river park recreation and popular Bridge Road for shopping and dining. Smaller towns blend outdoor adventure with quaint village atmospheres. Set between the New, Greenbrier and Bluestone Rivers, Hinton is an historic rail town filled with turn-of-the-century architecture and a host of water activities at its doorstep – rafting, fishing, kayaking and more. In the heart of West Virginia, Summersville is a “Mountain Water Playground.” Its lakeside location encourages outdoor recreation from swimming and boating to scuba diving and rafting. And history buffs can trace Civil War battles throughout the states historic sites and state parks. Hiking or horseback riding along trails through deep hardwood forests is another family favorite, especially when you stop for a picnic along a clear mountain stream.

This was the first bed and breakfast my husband and I have ever stayed in. We were in the Martha Washington toom and I loved being able to access our room from the outside instead of having to ho through the main part of the inn. The room was clean, the bed and pillows were so comfortable and soft. The common areas were clean and inviting. Kit and her husband Gary and all the staff we met were very friendly and so accommodating. The breakfasts were fantastic!!When we come back to the area again I know where I'm staying for sure!

Wonderful historic Inn

We stayed here for a weekend to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Lots of charm, well kept, and a great breakfast. Antique furniture (but modern comfortable long bed) makes you feel you're in colonial America. The innkeeper are wonderful and helpful.

Great themed rooms...

Reviewed By Bonnie M

We loved our "Fantasy" room - very spacious and beautifully decorated with lovely murals on the walls and ceiling. MQI does not serve breakfast or do anything other than check you in, but they do give you a daily breakfast voucher to Dean's Den which is 1/4 mile down the road. Andy the owner can make you just about any kind of breakfast you want: eggs, pancakes, breakfast sandwiches. He was not only kind and generous, he had good knowledge about what to do in the area. He'll be happy to help guide you! Andy was the best part of our stay - great guy! Regarding the "no technology zone" in the area (we had our phones off mostly) MQI has Ethernet cables to hook up to laptops, so you can access the internet that way. They also have an extensive DVD collection so you can watch movies at least. Enjoy being "unplugged" while you're here - but if that freaks you out, this may not be the best place to stay.

Reviewed By Jxoe

Under new management since November of 2021, the hotel and staff are working hard to make the experience even better than in the past. We had a delightful experience! Very comfortable accommodations and super-friendly staff. We love that the hotel is expanding by adding eleven new “glamming domes” with private bathrooms—should be lots of fun! Big, made to order breakfast. Dinner available in the little cafe. Beautiful locations. What can I say? I’d stay there again anytime!

Why would you stay at a chain hotel?

Reviewed By Desirees

Honestly, I didnt have any high expectations. Just wanted a place to stay near HIgh Street and have parking. First impression while booking was amazing. Paula was very helpful and listening to us ( we were two couples), she recommended specific two rooms and I went with it. Check in Day - she sent me a text with the codes to the hotel and the rooms. The Rooms: We had both rooms on the first floor and it was ideal. We had the room facing the street. Large windows, bright. You could smell the clean in the room/bathroom. Fluffy towels. Soft sheets. Compfortable pillows. Mattress was a bit hard but no issues there. There was a small area with a fridge, bottled water, and coffee. The other room had a huge bathroom. Absolutely loved our space. Parking was never an issue. The main street was one block away. The Asylum, right next door, has amazing drinks. This is a Hidden Gem indeed.

Country Road House and Berries

The Born family invites you to get away and unwind among the hills of the West Virginia Countryside. John and Angela Born met and married in the river front city of St. Louis, Missouri where they, along with their six children, made many summer memories picking fresh fruit from the fields of local farmers. After attending a year long farming course in the Midwest, John and Angela moved back to West Virginia with a desire to provide fresh, locally grown strawberries for the Charleston area. As they began searching for properties, the Borns quickly noticed the natural beauty surrounding the 130-year-old farm house they now call home. The farm’s fertile soil, abundant streams, and family friendly atmosphere make it a wonderful location for growing and sharing fresh produce. Angela, now as a fourth generation innkeeper, and John as a first generation farmer invite you to their West Virginia home to relax, unwind and make memories with your family.

Great Experience

Reviewed By annpF5805KU

My daughter and I had an excellent experience! The hosts were genuinely kind and friendly and solicitous of our comfort (without being at all intrusive). We loved walking along the trails on the property. Very pretty! I was very impressed by the quality of the breakfast Angela prepared for us and especially grateful for how carefully and creatively she addressed my daughter's food allergies. It was delicious!

Comfort Inn & Suites

Pack your earplugs

Reviewed By mageeee

I really want to like this hotel. Our son goes to college nearby & it's the closest hotel in the Choice chain, so I'd like to keep earning and using points. We've stayed there seven times since it became a Comfort Inn last summer, and each time the hotel has slid a little further downhill. On the plus side, the rooms have always been clean and the beds comfy. If those are the only two things you care about in a hotel room, it's fine. The phones have not worked ever since we started coming, and to some people, it won't matter, but cell phone reception in WV can be spotty, and sometimes you need a land line. It also helps to have a hotel phone to contact the front desk quickly and easily. If the guests in the room next door keep you awake with their hot, heavy, screaming sex at 3 AM (yes, it really happened to us), it would help to have a phone in the room to de-escalate the situation. It is a cheaply, poorly constructed property, and the noise problem is terrible. The walls are so paper thin that you can hear the guests in the next room changing their mind. Don't even get me started about the hallway noise; it's awful. The noise from the smokers gathering in front of the building is no fun, either. The toilets are so low to the floor that I thought I was going to have to call a wrecker to get up. The breakfast is all prepackaged stuff, and most of it is not exactly healthy. If you want a big breakfast, budget for it and go across the parking lot to the Huddle House. If you want to eat something healthy, bring it with you from home because there aren't that many healthy options. Avoid the milk; it was stored in metal pitchers with no insulation and not kept in the refrigerator. They also should plow their parking lot when it snows. We should have packed ice skates. The next time we come, we'll probably stay over in Weston and sacrifice the convenience of the location for a quiet room and a better night's sleep.

Has all you need

Reviewed By Pannipannini

We came for one night during ski season. Very clean rooms, hot water (amazing after a long day on the slopes), nice toiletries, quiet hours after 10 pm (so no, it’s not for the party crowd!), nice bed, coffee maker, fridge, microwave and friendly check-in…breakfast is basic but that’s not why you come here. It’s the closest lodging to Timberline and Canaan Valley ski areas. Laundry (coin operated), on first floor. Leave a tip for cleaning…would totally return here. If noise bothers you (which wasn’t an issue for us!), you can turn on the room fan.

We have stayed at Corduroy Inn several times in the last couple of years. If you like skiing the Western Territory, then it can't be beat for location. The restaurant and bar plus new construction make for a completely satisfying ski trip. All the staff are friendly and responsive too!
