We chose Friendly City as a stopover driving from Boston to Atlanta and could not have been more delighted. The innkeeper was lovely, the room was very comfortable with everything you might need from hairdryer to iron and ironing board. Fresh chocolate chip cookies on arrival, great dining recommendations, and a lovely historic Inn to learn about. As we were leaving early in the morning and would not be able to stay for breakfast the Innkeeper offered to have breakfast to go for us, and it was delicious! The most amazing thing was that my daughter inadvertantly left a treasured stuffed animal. The Innkeeper offered to ship it to our destination which stopped the tears and made one girl very very happy. We highly recommend the Inn!

This Inn is definitely a step into history. The grounds are beautiful and from the moment you step into the foyer, you know you're someplace special. The staff is welcoming and friendly, the breakfast can't be beat, and the antiques throughout give the place a classic vibe. Can't recommend it enough!

This is our 3rd stay at Friendly City Inn. Becca is a great host. Her breakfast is always very good. She is so friendly and gracious. Kyle also made are stay very pleasant. He contacted us to say we could check in early. I visit Harrisonburg every year and the Friendly City in is the only place I’ll stay.

Spring Getaway
The Friendly City Inn lives up to its name. It was a great base for a quick mother-daughter trip to the Shenandoah Valley. Kyle and Becca were welcoming but not intrusive. The bed was really comfortable and the room had a nice view of Harrisonburg and the mountains beyond. The breakfasts were amazing and the afternoon cookies were great after a day of hiking. We’ll definitely be back

Lovely place but not too accessible.
The room was lovely but the bathroom was not very accessible. My bad knees made it almost impossible to get up from the toilet. It was almost as low as the one in our old camper and the was nothing to grab hold of. Food was excellent but my husband is picky so he didn't eat much. Meat & potatoes guy.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review, Margaret! I apologize that you did not find the bathroom very accessible - that is one of the only down sides of a very old house! We are looking into ways to improve that experience for our guests, so your feedback is appreciated. If you choose to stay with us in the future, be sure to let us know about any dietary restrictions or preferences, as we are always happy to accommodate these! We hope we have the pleasure of hosting you again! :)
