Hotel Laurance

Centrally located in Main St. Luray, the accommodation provides easy access to attractions and walking distance from the Greenway. Guests praise the clean, well-appointed rooms and commend the helpful, hospitable staff.

For our visit to the Shenandoah Valley, for hiking and other activities, we decided to not stay in a cabin or something rustic like we typically do in Maine and other places. This was our first time visiting Luray and I was so grateful we found and booked Hotel Laurance! The property is beautiful and super clean. There is free parking and a strong WiFi signal. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and ready with everything we needed for a 5 night stay - full kitchen with dishware/cutlery, an easy to use TV, a large, walk-in shower, and plenty of bathroom towels. The windows are big, the space has high ceilings and the rooms are bright and airy. It felt like a posh downtown apartment in a major city - not a standard hotel. They play relaxing music on the lobby level during the day, which I thought was a nice touch. The keypad lock system on the main entry doors and your room is so easy - no need to worry about carrying hotel key cards! There was a basket with water and snacks in the kitchen and complimentary soaps and shampoo/conditioner in the shower. It was quiet at night (noisy pickup trucks on the street notwithstanding, the hotel can't control that) and the mattress was comfortable. All windows have miniblinds for privacy. We never once took the car to a restaurant or coffee shop/cafe on Main Street - all are walkable from Hotel Laurance. Check out the Hawksbill Greenway, a walking path along the Hawksbill Creek right near the hotel. There is also a very old and revered oak tree up the street from the hotel off S. Court St. Check Google maps and go see it, it's very cool. The pillows were a little bulky to sleep on, but that was the only thing I'd change. Everything else about our stay at this hotel was perfect! I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you for making our stay in Luray so nice ❤️

This was very unexpected. My wife and I originally rented a cabin on the mountain for the Fourth of July weekend. And a tree fell, blocking the road to the cabin and knocking out power to the area. So after checking Luray, we found Hotel Laurance. The hotel is amazing meticulously appointed, bespoke rooms, and public areas beyond beautiful and extremely comfortable. The staff were extremely attentive and accommodated us without a reservation. We are definitely looking for excuses to come back to Luray just to stay at Hotel Laurance again.
