The Belmont Inn by OYO

As an individual who has travelled fairly extensively in numerous countries, I have stayed at hostels and facilities in Europe and Aisa that would make any traveler gasp, travelled to South America, and lodged in Soviet-era hotels in Moscow; yet I do not consider myself a world traveler. I'm someone who has had the privilege of seeing many different cultures through my middle-class eyes. I can't recall writing a review for any lodging facility before. The Belmont Inn is a facility that has captured the essence of an era when travel was not about waffle makers at breakfast and Michelin *starred* fine dining adjacent to the lodging facilities. Read all the reviews for The Belmont Inn and ask yourself what matters to you during an overnight stay at a facility in a small town in South Carolina. Yes, some reviewers found some details that caused them to complain, but the essence of the reviews were about a wonderfully preserved inn that has an incredible staff and an old facility that will transport you emotionally to a time when random homicides and intense political divisions were non-existent. That was my experience, and during my one night visit I slept until 0745 which is an unusual occurrence for me. Thank you staff and owners!!! Be sure to check-out small town Abbeville as well.

This is not the place for you if you are wanting modern amenities. Yet if you want to stay at an authentic historic 1900s inn, this is the place for you! We were told that the inn is in the middle of remodeling and has new owners. I sincerely hope the new owners do not take away from any of the authentic details this historic site has. Within easy walking distance of local restaurants in the Town square and museums and the very very cool Opry House.
