About this property

Artist's Loft/Walk Downtown Roanoke/Free Onsite Parking/Historic Building

  • Artist's Loft Apartment • Prime Downtown Roanoke • Free Onsite Parking

    Stay somewhere truly different. A private, art-filled urban loft in a historic building, created for travelers who want an experience-not a generic hotel room.

    Walk to restaurants, the Historic Market, museums, parks and downtown events. Free onsite parking.

    This spacious 1,625-square-foot loft occupies a beautifully restored 1906 building in the heart of downtown Roanoke. Surrounded original art, and soaring 16-foot ceilings, it’s more than a place to sleep—it’s an experience. The loft combines historic character with contemporary comfort. The result is a private urban retreat with the feeling of an artist’s studio and gallery. This isn’t simply an apartment decorated with art. It’s part of an authentic working art environment. If you appreciate art, photography, architecture and creative spaces, you’ll find plenty to enjoy during your stay.

    One of the loft’s greatest advantages is its location. You’re in the heart of downtown Roanoke, within easy walking distance of restaurants, cafés, bars, museums, parks, entertainment and the Historic Market. Amtrak is just one block away, making the loft particularly convenient if you’re arriving by train.

    You can park your car when you arrive and spend much of your visit exploring downtown on foot

    The apartment sits in the interior center of the building and does not have exterior windows and as a result it is extremely quiet. No Downtown noise. Guests frequently comment that they have had their best nights sleep here! Plus French doors open into our bright, art-filled gallery lobby. The space is warmly lit with multiple lighting sources and mirrors, creating a cozy and relaxing atmosphere.

    Walk to restaurants, breweries, museums, parks, outdoor activities, and downtown events. Or relax in the loft and enjoy streaming Netflix on the TV.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in this spacious, comfortable, and centrally located apartment. The host was excellent—great communication and even had the pull-out couch (surprisingly comfortable!) ready for my guest. I especially loved the artistic touches throughout the space—so many unique and interesting pieces of art. The apartment had everything I needed, and I’ll definitely stay here again next time I’m in Roanoke!

I came for the VEDA Conference and the Hotel Roanoke was booked up. The location was an easy walk to my conference and loved that downtown parking was included! Host offered reasonable rates, good directions of entry and location (its a little hidden). Cool industrial artsy vibes. Tea and coffee was available - nice touch. Great access to shopping, restaurants and the Star/BR Parkway.

Travel Nurse

Needed a place to stay close to the hospital while I figured out the area. I was literally 5 mins from the hospital and in the middle of downtown. The sqft was more than I expected. The kitchen was perfect for what I needed. The vibe was awesome because it’s something I always wanted to stay in. I’d definitely stay again and recommended to travel nurses looking for a central safe place to stay. I would have loved to stay for my contract.

What a great space in a great location!

I was in town for a friend's wedding at the Fire Station One Hotel (where the bridal party was staying) and wanted something other than a ho-hum hotel room after having traveled for work many, many times over the previous few months. I looked around for anything in the downtown area and I found the perfect spot! Not only is this apartment located right in the heart of the activity but it was also really unique and full of personality. It was quite literally one of the highlights of the trip. I split the room with a buddy and it was perfect for a couple of guys who were in town to hang out and check out the scene. So many bars and restaurants within walking distance, our favorite's being Martin's, Jack Brown's and of course the Texas Tavern. Everyone that came by to check it out after we raved about it was also impressed. Suzun was an exceptional host and when I had an issue with my account (that Verb didn't seem terribly interested in helping with) that was preventing me from using the app to see any messages, Suzun was able to communicate over text without seeming to break a sweat. The price was also right, which while not always the primary concern when traveling where you spend most of your time someplace other than your room, it never hurts. I 110% would check the availability here if I ever breeze back into town in the future and need a place to stay.
