Natural Bridge Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"Should be cleaner and include breakfast as this is one of the more expensive hotels in the area. The elevator needs an update too, seemed a bit sketchy."

Fairfield Inn & Suites Lynchburg Liberty University

8/10 Good

"Place was very clean. Nice staff. Good breakfast. But one W was broken and had a bad smell in laundry room (no sign no one checked for our 3 day trip). No quarters in site and no coin changer. Not helpful at all."

Peaks of Otter Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We didn't have a place to stay, on a whim we just headed up to the Natural Bridge in VA. We found the Peaks of Otter and decided to go for it. It is an older building but it was done up well and very clean. All the room have a magnificent view of the lake and the grounds are delightful to meander around on . We think it 's "our spot" now. We will be back."

Days Inn by Wyndham Bedford

8/10 Good

"Upon arrival we could not turn on bedside lights or the TV. They were unplugged. We found that the outlets were behind furniture and could not be reached. A hotel assistant gladly moved the furniture and plugged the items in. There were tiny flies (smaller than a fruit fly) flying around the room. I killed several of them. The hotel is an older facility, built before the widespread use of hand-held devices that need to be charged. There are not enough outlets to work with or recharge these devices."
