Upon arrival, we had to locate someone to check us in. After going to our room, several lights were out, and the queen bed was in the shape of a "U" when looking at it from the side. All the feathers in the mattress topper were in the bottom of the bed. The worst part was that it was 36... More

My wife an I have stayed in the Joshua Wilton House at least once for the past three years. After coming here when we got engaged we realized we had found a very special place. The food (both dinner and breakfast) is wonderful, prepared with incredible care and expertise by the chef. And the service and friendliness can not be... More

We held a Family Reunion for 35 Shank relatives JW House, which, of course, I still think of as my maternal Grandmother's home and a place holding many precious memories. The staff (yea, Whitney) provided a delicious buffet luncheon that was unbelievably matched by the next mornings breakfast. The rooms are great, though the addition of bathrooms for each one... More

We came down from DE for the UD - JMU womens' basketball game. Our children & grandchildren gave us the trip for Christmas. Our stay in room 5 was all we could have asked for & more. Friendly staff, gourmet breakfast,& the most lovely bed I have ever seen! We were there on a Sunday night & watched "Downton Abbey"... More

Each year, we come down for a board meeting at JMU School of Hospitality, and we have used the JWH the past 6 years or so. The staff is great, very friendly, genuine and hospitable. Having now stayed in each of the House's 5 rooms, Rooms 1,4 & 5 are a bit larger and a little nicer, but while I... More

Very pleased with our 3 night stay! The outstanding gourmet breakfasts were definitely a highlight and my husband enjoyed retrieving the coffee tray to bring up to the room each morning. Our room (Room 1) was very comfortable and spacious. The bathroom is a good size but not aesthetically pleasing. It was a bit noisy with the restaurant being downstairs... More

On the whole, my wife and I loved our Valentines weekend stay at the Joshua Wilton House. The room was comfortable and beautiful. The service was friendly. The breakfast was top-notch; we were looking forward to terrific food, and it was even better than expected. We were a bit disappointed that there was no library-style sitting room and that we...

I have visited friends in Harrisonburg for the past 10 years. For this year's visit I decided to find a little respite for myself. I found a gem in the Joshua Wilton House. My room was complete with a four poster bed and a fire place. Each end of a long day with friends, exploring Virginia, I came home to... More

We went to college in Harrisonburg and by coming back to stay at the Joshua Wilton House, we felt like we had never left! Felt very homey and we loved being so close to downtown. The food was delicious and being able to have breakfast there in the mornings was a nice way to start the day. A perfect weekend... More

My wife and I just spent the weekend there for our anniversary and couldn't have been happier with our experience. First off the house is very nicely updated inside without impacting the overall historic character of the place (built in 1888). There are only 5 well appointed rooms. Ours was one of the smaller rooms and we still loved it.... More
