With its charming brick exterior, dormer windows, and white wooden balustrades, The Martha Washington Hotel & Spa – part of the Lifestyle collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts – has the look and feel of an authentic colonial gem. Cradled by the folds of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains, the hotel was built by a Virginia general in 1832 to serve as his private residence. Its collection of rooms and suites render one-of-a-kind spaces where traditional appointments meet modern amenities.

We stay at The Martha each year and love staying there. The one draw for us is the hot tub. We love relaxing in the outdoor hot tub each night when we get back to the hotel. The rooms are nice and spacious, the staff is super friendly. The hotel is also very clean. You can tell it's historic. My biggest complaint is the breakfast, or lack of. Your only option for breakfast in the hotel is an omelet, a croissant, or scrambled eggs. Neither my wife nor myself like croissants or omelets, so we were pretty limited on our breakfast options. It also comes with yogurt which is... meh. So if you're used to hotels with decent breakfast options or even continental breakfast options, you may want to skip the breakfast that the hotel offers and go to a restaurant in town for breakfast. If the restaurant at the resort would give people options, I would give it 5 stars. Even if it were simple options such as bacon, biscuits, gravy, etc each day. The set menu with a single option is a major flaw I think they have.

My family of eight had dinner at Sisters at the Martha’s on Friday evening. We had a semi private room in the dining room. Our drinks and dinner were all delicious! Marissa, our waitress, was awesome. Would definitely go there again!

Had dinner and drinks at their bar and our bartender, Nikita, was the most knowledgeable bar keep we have had in the south. We asked if she was from Russia and she said Nyet....Suspicious but ok... She made us everything we asked and the drinks were perfect. A very warm, outgoing, funny, and professional attitude. We will certainly be returning and requesting Nikita to take care of us.

We have been visiting The Martha for years and are so impressed with the upkeep. We love that we can drive up and leave the world behind. There’s no need to get back in the car until we leave - everything is at our finger tips, from three meals services (lunch service is new) to a fitness center, spa, indoor pool, boutique, outdoor (amazing) jacuzzi, putt putt, pickleball - not to mention many other food options, shopping, the creeper trail, and the Barter Theatre within walking distance. The management is exceptional as well, and will do all they can to ensure a great stay!

Really cool place! Very welcoming and a great and friendly staff. Reasonable pricing decent food. Abingdon is a neat older town the retained a lot of charm. Facilties are pretty nice at the Martha with a decent gym, pool and Jacuzzi. Definitely worth a visit!
