There is a nice outdoor space in the back of the hotel we enjoyed with many other guest. We grabbed chairs that were in front of each room and cooked up snacks in the fire pit. The hotel welcomed the use of the yard on a beautiful night.

Loved coming here for the night! Despite seeming like an older motel, it's definitely worth it still. Internet access is good, the beds are comfy enough, and the staff are quick and kind. If I'm ever down this way again, I'd love to stay the night again!

This was a third trip to the Marlinton Motor Inn. We always stay when we come to ride the train. The hotel is old and dated, but clean. The beds are comfy for a nights sleep. If your looking for the Hilton, this is not for you, but if your in the area and need a quick place to stay, this is your place. We were very disappointed that the lounge/bar had closed, that was a staple of us staying there. We would stay again, but weren’t as excited this visit…
