A guest room under painted beams with a round window, a four-poster and wide windows onto the hills

Stay at The Ashby · Paris, Virginia

Ten rooms.
No two alike.

Four-posters, fireplaces and windows full of Virginia hills, upstairs from one of Northern Virginia's best restaurants. Dinner is a staircase away.

The inn

An old house that was built for staying late.

The Ashby has been taking in travelers since 1829. The rooms have kept the parts worth keeping: wide plank floors, painted beams, antiques and real fireplaces. The rest is updated, from the tiled showers to the coffee on the landing.

Every room is different, so pick the one that fits the trip. A fire for a winter weekend, a window seat over the lawn for a summer one, or the top floor if you would rather not see anyone until breakfast.

The view

Open the window. That is the plan for today.

From the upstairs rooms you look out over the lawn, the kitchen garden that feeds the restaurant, and the hills beyond.

Bring a book. There is a window seat with your name on it.
