Colony House is just an average motel right off the Blue Ridge Parkway in Roanoke...The rooms are rather large and the mattresses are fine. I noticed that there was no shampoo in the bathroom. Had the maid forgotten to leave some? Your guess is as good as mine. The hotel is close and handy to many restaurants and shopping centers.... More

I love the Colony House, and stay there every time I go to Roanoke. Nothing fancy but the rooms are clean, beds are comfortable, staff is always nice and I can walk to several different restaurants. After a long day of travelling by motorcycle it's a great place to spend a quiet night, AND it's very close to the Blue... More

We stayed there Saturday evening for $89. Nice lady at the front desk. Room was clean, bathroom was clean, bed was comfortable. Pool was very nice after a long days motorcycle ride. Parked right in front of the room. $12.00 taxi ride got us to Downtown Roanoke where we had a great meal and some night life. I will return... More

My husband and I stayed here for one week during the recent power outage in Roanoke, since our home had no power or water. It is across the street from a Red Lobster, KMart, and Sonic. The location is convenient to the Tanglewood Mall, Franklin Road shops, and downtown (10 min drive). Our weekly rate equaled about $40/day. I thought... More

Aftrr one night in a 1950's motel in Luray,Va, a drive down the SkyLine Drive and part of the Blue Ridge Parkway, the Colony House Motor Lodge was a bright light at the end of a long tunnel.Check in was quick. Walking into my room, my first word was 'WOW'. Two queen beds, round table with 2 or 3 chairs.... More

Stayed here one night - September 24, 2011. This is a older, small, family-owned motel. The check-in guy was the owner I'm pretty sure and he gave me the rate of $56 for a Saturday night. He was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was very large and spacious and the bed was comfortable. The room was very clean and... More

I do not understand the review of Feb. 2009. I too was hospitalized while staying at this hotel. I received excellent treatment and much concern for my health. They most certainly do honor their weekly rate of $196.00. As a matter of fact, I feel I was given such special treatment, I plan on visiting again real soon. It is... More
