The staff were lovely and the lobby impressive. The rooms are dated— the wallpaper, bathrooms (tiles in shower need a good bleach cleaning), dirty desk chair. Was disappointed when I entered the room to see 2 full size beds instead of queen, as advertised. Apparently all the rooms have the same sized beds, so don’t expect a queen. Location in Lynchburg is good. Hotel was fine for one night.

Overall the room was cleanish, however the property has been under renovation since I stayed here 3 years ago. No breakfast. No working pool. Not even the ice machine worked. My card to my room kept getting de-magnitized and I had to get new cards… my last day I was told my phone will cause that. First night no hot water in the shower. Went to make a coffee and the last guests pod was in there from who knows when. I had my dog with me, I called in advance and was told there was a $50 pet fee, as is also stated on the listing. Upon checking in it was suddenly a $75 pet fee (and $5 parking fee for an unsecured lot littered with liquor bottles). Won’t be staying here again.

The lobby was very nice but the rooms were very tired. Clean but old, hallways need new carpet and wall paper. The parking was good in the parking garage next to the hotel.

Room was clean but old. Property is under renovation which is not mentioned online. Also no breakfast, only coffee. Needs a good up to date Reno on rooms. Also keurig coffee maker in room only brews half a cup of coffee so I wouldn’t waste my time using it. The fridge did come in handy for outside drinks tho.
Thank you to the staff which were all very polite and friendly!

This was a fine and inexpensive property to use while visiting downtown Lynchburg. The hotel is quite dated, and some of it appears to be closed or undergoing construction. Nevertheless, the price point and the location are selling points, and I would certainly stay there again for quick visits to Lynchburg.

Lynchburg Grand was a decent place to stay for a night. I know they are doing some renovations, so there was no continental breakfast. Most of the ice machines were out of order. We didnt need ice but im sure some did and there was only 2 floors the machines worked. The staff were all very nice and our room was very clean. We would stay here again if its only for a night or two.

PROS: Quiet, friendly staff, walkable location, safe, ice machine, good water pressure

CONS: in need of maintenance & updating. We couldn’t get in to the room we were first assigned due to the card reader not working properly. The room we were moved to had a phone that did not work & possible mold growing on the bathroom ceiling. There were no vending machines

I have never left a 1 star review but someone has to do it. We chose this hotel because it got 8.8 stars out of 10. This hotel is in complete disrepair. The bar and restaurants have been abandoned, there was no heat running at all in the lobby and the staff had space heaters going trying to stay warm, there was a mattress in the hallway going to our room which was tired and dingy, our sofa was covered in stains, the internet wasn't strong enough to carry a signal, the shower kept spewing water in the middle of the night, our feet stuck to the floor in the bathroom like we were walking on fly paper, the ceiling over the shower looked like it was ready to cave in, and the water was only lukewarm at best. How on earth this hotel received a score of 8.8 is alarming. Where are these reviews coming from?

There was no breakfast available. The rooms are not cleaned every day. The property is still nice but dated. My room was not available and they moved me to another room. I kind of felt like a second class citizen because I booked through a “third party” instead of the hotel. Not sure if I would return because of that.

The staff was lovely and helped with an issue getting in my room. The room however had several issues: the handle on the shower to adjust the water temperature was broken and you had to manually search for the hot water by moving the handle around until eventually you landed in the right spot; the tub drain stopper was broken and hanging into the tub and had rusted to the bottom of the tub; and there was a huge stain on one side of the comforter that resembled blood. I’m not sure if the comforter had even been washed.

The hotel is very worn down and not very clean. It’s an older property but obvious they have allowed it to age poorly instead of trying to maintain it. The beds were uncomfortable and the walls and doors are incredibly thin. You can hear everything there’s no privacy. The only positive was the young guy working the front desk that checked us out, he was warm and friendly.

I thought the staff was very kind, helpful and professional. However, the rooms were honestly filthy. When I turned the hearer on, a gross smell like rotten food would fill the room. Everything is verrrry run down, old. Layer of dirt on everything. It just feels like the rooms definirely don't get more than maybe the bedding changed between guests. I wouldn't stay here again
