Chestnut Hotel

West Virginia


Rooms are a little dark at this hip number but they are spacious. And the location in the heart of downtown can't be beat. There's a bar on the rooftop which can draw revelers, and the whole hotel can get loud on big WVU weekends – but that's true of the whole downtown. On-site parking is complimentary.
