Historic hotel was clean and comfortable, but a bit too historic. There were no USB outlets of any kind and few electrical outlets which limited the ability to charge various electronic devices.
The staff was fantastic as aways. Only complaint was that the AC fan in my room was so loud that I couldn't sleep. Needed to stay 1 more night and asked for different room which was great
This is a beautiful old hotel, but it must be stated that this hotel is not handicap friendly hotel. If you have mobility issues i would not recommend staying here. The hotel sits on a street on an incline, but what's worse are the steps you're forced to climb to check in and get to your room. You literally have to lug your luggage up a flight of stairs. It was impossible for me. The front desk person serves as check in and bell hop. The beds and continental breakfast were underwhelming considering the room cost and high ratings. I personally would never stay here again.
It was a very well done historic hotel. Room were comfortable and included a continental breakfast and waffle machine. Conveniently in downtown Marion.
Very old hotel, very old carpet and facility. Very poor breakfast. Our room door has a gap which you could see outside. It was a joke. Very very old facility. Noisy AC.
Super nice staff, so friendly! Was in Marion for a graduation. One night we were leaving the hotel, it was pouring. I asked the front desk for an umbrella and the sweet lady at the desk found me one. Thank you!!
The stay was pretty good. Place was comfortable. Cleaning service should clean under bed..... I dropped earring and had to look for it and it was apparent it not been cleaned under in while.
On my trip to Marion, I met family members at a campsite at Hungry Mother State Park. It was lovely to be able to come to the General Francis Marion hotel in the evening to sleep. The hotel room was very clean, well-supplied and quiet. I loved the spacious bathroom and the big bed. As a single woman, I also appreciated the atmosphere of safety it provided. I loved the architecture and the history of the building, as it blended old new and features. I used to go to Marion as a child, so it was wonderful to see that this piece of Virginia history is still vibrant and active.
I loved the history of this beautiful 1920âs building! It was well maintained and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful and the location downtown was lovely.
The hotel is in a super convenient location: restaurants, gift stores, and entertainment are all within walking distance. The employees were very professional and nice. They were all smiling which automatically sets a friendly tone. The rooms are decorated nicely. The room was odor free. I felt safe and the parking is free. I only had two things that werenât quite 5-star in my opinion; the hot water came on the first night but the next morning, I stood at the foot of the shower for 4 minutes and it never got hot. It was barely lukewarm and I couldnât take a shower. Luckily we were checking out that day so I knew I could take a shower once I got home. Iâm assuming the plumbing is old since itâs a beautiful historic building. The only other thing I would change would be the bed. It was a spring mattress and it squeaked and was a little uncomfortable but thatâs just me. You may like spring mattresses. I personally like a soft plush memory foam so that one is just personal preference and not necessarily a bad thing. The free breakfast was just fine: waffles, bagels, oatmeal, fruit, milk, orange juice and microwaveable sausage croissants. Plenty to eat.
