This is the best bed & breakfast we have ever stayed in!

We loved everything! The house is beautiful. The place was spotless and well decorated. The breakfast was phenomenal and food network worthy. However, the best part was the incredible above and beyond service we received. We were rushing checking in to make it to a concert. Our hosts checked us in quickly, made scones for us to eat on the way to the venue, and gave us recommendations for late night restaurants after the concert. We were so well taken care of! We will definitely return!

Great hospitality and a very nice inn.

The hosts were gracious, friendly and helpful. The breakfast included in the price was delicious, beautifully presented and unusual. They also served complementary wine and snacks before dinner. We had an unexpectedly great visit.

What a treat to stay here! Best B&B ever!

Probably the best B&B I have stayed in. Spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and the breakfast with personalised menu was delicious. Ideal for downtown Roanoke, just a short drive. I would not hesitate to recommend this B&B to anyone.

Nothing at all.

Quick but lovely stay in this cute BnB!

Super cute BNB. We stayed in the suite/attic room and it was so spacious. We were only there overnight but would have happily spent more time there. Breakfast was delicious and perfect to eat out on their little porch. I would absolutely stay here again if I were in the area.

Not really a dislike but just a caution that their sign is a bit hard to see. I drove past it the first time and had to turn around. (They did give perfect directions but it's just easy to miss!)

The Black Lantern Inn provided an excellent experience that left you wanting to stay longer.

We truly loved the location in relationship to the city of Roanoke. Also, the room was very spacious, clean, and quiet. The breakfast food was excellent and the hosts were very accommodating. It felt like a home away from home.

I loved everything about our stay. There was nothing negative!

Excellent hosts and very comfortable stay.

Chris and Jayne are wonderful hosts. Although we only stayed one night, we felt we made friends. Cannot wait to stay there again and be able to explore more places, do some hiking when the weather is more cooperative.

Could not fault the place or the hosts. We would definitely stay again.

Comfortable, spacious, tastefully decorated, well equipped with the necessities. No notices or placards telling you what not to do. Private parking.

Easy to miss the front entrance way. A little tricky to approach by road.

A wonderful stay with spectacular hosts and beautiful, property. BETTER than HOME!

Both breakfasts were good and more than enough food! Loved the ‘pancake’ and the fresh fruit, organic, homemade, locally sourced foods, were a special detail we appreciated. Privacy, with attentiveness and helpfulness! Chris and Jayne could not have been kinder, friendlier or more helpful; full of tips and trips, food ideas, housing ideas for our college grad, everything was SUPERB! The house is beautiful, private,cozy, and so clean. All details were given attention. Plus Jax pup was so well-behaved, and friendly when prompted, we fell in love!

The ONLY thing we could even begin to mention is the place is a little tricky to see on the first try. Our innkeeper’s email warned us, so we found the driveway but did appreciate the second chance from behind the property (with great signage) if we had missed it on our first attempt.

Comfy room, lovely hosts, exceptional breakfast!

The breakfast was excellent! We loved the unique homemade offerings that showcased local and organic ingredients. It was awesome waking up to a hot pot of coffee and pastries, and the personalized menu greeting us each morning was an extra special touch! We also enjoyed chatting with our hosts. They made us feel welcome like family. The location was ideal for our weekend plans. We were able to walk to several breweries, restaurants, and entertainment venues. And it was a short, simple drive to the Roanoke Star. The area felt very safe. We hope to return some day and will recommend highly to friends and family! Thank you Chris and Jayne!

I really can’t think of anything I didn’t like! This was our first stay at a B&B and I think they set a very high bar!

Friendly, gracious hosts, delicious food, and and extremely comfortable stay.

I was on a road trip with a friend, and had a early departure which I assumed would mean we would miss breakfast. Instead, the owners prepared a DELICIOUS bag of treats for our trip and had a hot pot of coffee ready for us when we woke up. They went above and beyond. Also, their recommendations for a dinner spot were excellent.

Excellent, comfortable, and reasonable accommodation in Roanoke.

This was a great place to stay with easy access to the historic district in which we were interested. The room was extremely roomy and comfortable. The whole property is maintained in immaculate condition. The hosts we very congenial and helpful with local information and recommendations; a bulletin board with comprehensive info about local attractions and restaurants was also available. The breakfast was both healthy and delicious. I cannot think of any amenity that was missing, and there were even frozen ice packs available on departure to keep our small cooler cold.

I don't really have anything negative to say about the property. There were rather a large number of steps as our room was on the second and third floor, but I would still request that room anytime I say in the future.
