WE ARE OPEN - We have always maintained the highest cleanliness standards and continue to do so for guest and staff safety.

We loved our stay. The entire hotel was clean and well maintained. We booked here last minute for a wedding and I was not disappointed. The best feeling was when I stepped on the hardwood floor is was clean!!! Not a speck of sticky ness or dirt! My husband loved the shower and the nice complimentary soaps. The hotel was very quite and romantic feeling. I am a big fan of the keyless entry. Even though staff isn’t on site 24/7 they have very responsive.

Such a quaint little place to stay! The rooms were beautiful and the staff was incredibly accommodating. The location was great as it was right on Main Street and everything could be walked to!

We stayed in this cute little historic hotel in the heart of Luray which is a great spot for going to the Shenandoah mountains and the Cavern. The lady that checked us in is so sweet and informative. Our room was very nice but the alarm went off in the hotel for several minutes because someone didn't turn the exhaust fan on while taking a shower which is necessary. We also found ants in the kitchen. It was a block away from a very scenic walkway. Enjoyed the common area for afternoon tea.

Exceptional in every way. From the gorgeous decor, the rich history of the building itself, the immaculate rooms, and the most extraordinary customer service and hosts, this was such a wonderful trip and we cannot wait to come back! We stayed in The Andrew room and it was so clean and lovely! There were so many fun things to do close by (Luray Caverns, Skyline Drive and hiking, lots of cute little downtown shops), but unwinding in our beautiful room and enjoying some downtime had to be our favorite part. And Lauren was such a wonderful host! Will absolutely be back!

We had a great 2night stay. Staff is warm, attentive and available. We had lots of complimentary water and the kuerig in the room was quite tasty. We loved the newly renovated look and chic decor. Really cool design details made the room look great. It's an old building so we could hear walking upstairs and cars going by but nothing out of the ordinary. The town seemed to turn in around 9pm so we found it to be very quiet for sleeping.

This an excellent hotel with world class genuine hospitality. Anyone who left under 4 stars is nuts. I've stayed in 100s of hotels including several stays in popular hotels in Vegas. This is a charming place with great staff. I'm shocked that this was even an option with the other options available in town.

Cozy, polished, and friendly little hotel in a neat downtown setting. From the start, the hotel staff was friendly and accommodating as we traveled down from New York for the weekend, including checking in with us on travel and arrival times. Our vintage twist of a modern room had such charm with high ceiling, modern decorations, classic transoms, subway tiles, and gorgeous hardwood floors.
I would highly recommend this hotel for how it treats its guests alone, but the decor and coziness really set it apart. I would stay in this hotel if you put it in just about any location, let alone the Shenandoah

Hotel Laurence is a beautiful boutique hotel. The fixtures and interior design is very stylish. The kitchen comes equipped with a microwave, stove, oven, refrigerator/freezer. Kitchen is supplied by the hotel with all the kitchen essentials.

The hotel itself is well maintained and keeps to its era of design. There is no courtyard or much curb appeal. The historical building is well maintained.

They thoughtfully left us a bottle of wine for our anniversary. Nice touch.

Staff: the two we encountered we barely got a hello.

Now to the unfortunate part. Hotels are made for sleeping, right

1. Getting in to our room there was something disgusting folded up in to one of the towels like they just folded up a dirty towel and placed it in the room but we didnt complain bc its human error and it was our wedding so whatever get some more towels.
2. Get back from honeymoon to several extra charges on our credit card for $100 in cleaning for both rooms and $75 for a dog that was never there and for damaged towels. LOL so the towels they said were damaged they sent us pictures of that had sopping wet orange juice all over them the DAY AFTER ANY ORANGE JUICE was drank... interesting.. Yes

The hotel is located in downtown Luray, only a few minutes drive fro Thornton Gap entrance station. The beds are extremely comfortable. My dad said that it was the most comfortable bed he had slept in his life.

Although it is recently renovated, it is an old building. The handle of the oven is falling. The power went out for about two hours during a thunderstorm. But the staff was able to buy us some candles. They charged $25 for extra person to my credit card afterwards, which is never stated on their website and during my booking process.

Let me start by saying nothing really bad happened while I was here but really nothing good happened either. It was a place to spend a night but for the price is why the low rating, especially considering no breakfast is included. The night before I had spent the same amount of money on a bigger room with breakfast included.

So that being said, the rooms are quite pretty and decorated in period style. And by rooms, I should say room, because apparently each room is different. I see reviews saying they had no problems with space, but our room was tiny. It was functional; honestly it reminded

Every room is unique and looking at the different options is half the fun when staying here. The interior decoration for each room is beautifully done. I arrived around 9PM and all the doors were locked but saw that the door had a keypad lock. I called the number for the hotel and was immediately assisted with the code to the door to enter the hotel from the parking lot as well as my room code.

The room was set up exactly as the photographs posted on their website. The only issue I had during my stay there was that the bathroom sink was very, very slow to drain. It was to the point that even

Wow! So very nice. Clean cozy and roomy. Lots of space. The kitchen has full size appliances and dishes. The bathroom has an old claw foot tub. It is like stepping back in time. Check in was a breeze. Being it was the end of December not a lot was happening but will be back in the summer and will stay at the Hotel Laurence.

Such a pretty little place to stay when you want to get out far.
It was so difficult picking which room to stay in because everything looked sooooo nice.
They have room options with kitchen, living room or family.
Checking in was very easy and inn keeper was very friendly in accommodating our needs. Accessing was very simple, just four digit to enter. Everything in the room is was simple and clean. They also had tv with wifi capability that allows you to access your own entertainment apps.
It literally mile or two away from Luray cavern and not far from Shenandoah, main reason people would stay

This historic element, the central location and the tranquility of this place really makes it stand out from other hotels in Luray. Check in was a bit confusing and inconvenient since there was no one present when we arrived (at check-in, on Saturday), so we had to call and text numerous times in order to get ahold of the innkeeper.

That aside, the hotel is wonderful and the rooms are appointment very nicely.

I stayed here a few weeks ago during a trip to the Caverns. Cute little spot, room was nice... very comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful in helping my husband and I find a place nearby to eat. We'll be back the time we're in town.

Such a cozy and welcoming hotel in the town of Luray. Very close to Luray Caverns which was perfect. I absolutely loved the decor and interior design! This hotel is much better than any mainstream place...they upgraded us to a bigger room for no reason, just to be nice! Hope to come back soon.
