Townsman: Poe

About

A black-and-white color scheme with bronze accents gives the Poe Room an urban sensibility touched with a mid-century chic. It’s perfect for those who dream by day.

This artistically designed room is situated in Townsman Hotel. It is unlike your typical hotel. That’s why we call it the 'unhotel'. Poised just above or in the middle of Charlottesville’s bustling and historical Downtown Mall or the walking mall packed with restaurants, bars, shops, and more. It is in between Mudhouse Coffee and Rockfish Brewing Company, with no staff and no front desk, which feels like a well-kept secret right in the center of all the action. Instead of charging you for things you’ll never use, we’ve pared ourselves down to the essentials: an incredible location; four uniquely-designed rooms; and great prices. Once you book with us, a personal code will be provided for access and all you have to do is show up. No check-in. No hassles. Along with an exclusive access to a nearby business and social space, as we’ve partnered with the Common House, which is free for our guests.

Explore the greater Charlottesville area and discover some of the best places to dine, shop, relax, and do a variety of activities such as hiking, biking, shopping, enchanting night life, and navigating through historical sites such as Thomas Jefferson's home of Monticello and the well-known Rotunda, all right below your feet. Start your day with breakfast at The Nook, enjoy wine tastings at local vineyards, and dine at The Alley Light with options for post-dinner drinks or dancing. You may also grab coffee and a workout before relaxing at Halo Salt Spa, enjoy lunch at Citizen Burger Bar, take a self-guided brewery tour, and wrap up with dinner at the Dairy Market and a nightcap at Miller’s.

With free parking and a good cell service.
On the first-floor landing, there is a refrigerator available to all guests plus some complimentary bottles of water.
