Guest Requests

Alexander Room Our largest guest room, the downstairs Alexander Room is bright and airy, with warm gold tones and a sumptuously curved, walnut, queen bed. The original (non-working) fireplace takes you back to the days when the Inn was the beloved home of the Alexander family. Enjoy a cup of tea or curl up with a book in the cozy sitting nook with its dropped ceiling and comfy loveseat. Or stretch out in the bathroom’s claw-footed slipper tub/shower and relax with a soothing candlelight bubble bath. As you melt away your cares, raise a glass to the four generations of Alexanders who inhabited the house and preserved it for nearly a century.

The Garden Room Can a room be both cozy and airy at the same time? The Garden Room is proof that it can. Oversized windows bathe the room in light, while deep moss green walls envelop you in a woodland fantasy. A queen-sized straight panel rice bed features 86 inch elegantly carved posts, and masses of downy pillows. Engage your inner romantic in the private bath, surrounded by cheery peach tones and delicate white accents, with its one-of-a-kind console sink,An 80 gallon whirlpool tub, and full modern shower. Named after Harold and Josephine Hatcher, founders of Hatcher Garden and Woodland Preserve, a 10-acre horticultural jewel just minutes away, the Garden Room provides the perfect setting for honeymooners, anniversaries, or a weekend escape.

Let the restful tones of the Hub City Room lull you to sleep, like the gentle swaying of the passenger trains for which the room is named. Dream of the days when Spartanburg was at the heart of the Upstate’s converging railroad lines as you sink into the antique French bed, part of the room’s matching suite. Perfect for single travelers, this secluded second-floor room features neutral furnishings, a plush oriental rug, and the only original bath left in the Inn. Refurbished just prior to the start of WWII, the bath includes a five-and-one-half foot tub with shower and original pre-war sink.

A light-filled aerie awaits you in this second-floor haven. Stately and imposing, the Peach Room features a queen-sized walnut bed with unique swinging headboard. Soft coral walls, luxurious tapestry accents, and in-room sitting area bring to mind the graciousness of the Old South, a fitting tribute to the Upstate’s agricultural past (and present). Relax in solitude after a day of visiting the region’s peach orchards and strawberry fields, or join other guests on the adjacent veranda.

If you listen closely, you can almost hear the muskets in this room dedicated to the American Revolution in Spartanburg County. General Daniel Morgan, credited with turning the tide in the battle for independence, surveys the scene from his portrait above the original fireplace. The warm oak bedroom set with queen-sized bed, rich plaid furnishings, and plush wing chair all convey a sense of masculine comfort and colonial charm. The private bath with shower features an original stained glass window, while the second-story veranda is just steps away.
