Liz provided wonderful host services and we felt very taken care of. Check in was a breeze and parking was convenient. This is an excellent location in downtown Fredericksburg and you can walk to everything. We will definitely stay again!

The food at breakfast could have been better but did not change our overall opinion of the experience, which was excellent.
Tom, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The place was actually pretty great, but read more carefully than we did as our private bath was across the hall from our room.
Rex, 7-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved it!

We stayed here because of a family wedding....and we LOVED it! Such a wonderful to stay in downtown Fredericksburg. The hospitality, the room, the decor, the snacks and food...all.of it.
Vicky, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The inn keeper and all other staff with whom we interacted were friendly, helpful, and efficient. They accommodated our slightly early arrival and late departure, which made our trip extra relaxing. The bed was super comfortable and all areas of the inn were clean, tidy, and welcoming. We enjoyed relaxing indoors, both in our room and in the public areas inside the inn, and out on the patio. The breakfasts and snacks were good. The location of the inn is excellent and easy walking distance to multiple shops and restaurants.

10/10 Excellent

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.
Sheik, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.
Andrea, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Quaint historic house only problem was the air conditioning was too loud, but it was over 95 degrees. So better loud and cool than sweaty and hot. Pillows uncomfortable. Nice place.
