Since 1840, The Lafayette Inn has been making history in the foreground of the Shenandoah Mountains. Located in the heart of downtown Stanardsville, Virginia, just ten minutes from the Shenandoah National Park and a half-hour from the University of Virginia and other historic and interesting sites in the Charlottesville, Shenandoah Valley and Piedmont, Virginia area. This year, we invite you and your family to write your own history, creating treasured memories at The Lafayette Inn.
Arrive at The Lafayette and enjoy an in room check-in. We will have your gas fireplace blazing and lights set romantically. After you are settled, come down to the Tavern and enjoy one of our specially selected wine flights and Chef prepared appetizers. Watch the sun set over the mountains from the second story covered porch and then return to the dining room for an elegant dinner. Tempt yourself with our dessert sampler at the end! Then return to your romantic suite for the evening.
In the morning, visit the Tavern and find it has been transformed to become the local Coffee (and tea) house. As our guest, enjoy a country style breakfast as part of your stay.
As in the past, The Lafayette offers the best of Virginia; a nineteenth century setting with fine foods, comfort and hospitality. The Lafayette Inn will continue the tradition of being one of Virginia's hottest Sunday Brunch destinations, while adding subtle enhancements for today's living styles, yet preserving the aura it's known for. The Lafayette Inn is at the height of beauty and elegance. Our staff has only one goal: to exceed your expectations. Whether you have stayed with us many times, or you are planning your first visit, we hope to have the opportunity to personally welcome you to The Lafayette Inn this year - Alan and Kaye Pyles, Innkeepers/Owners.
