The Martha Washington Hotel & Spa
Overview
Originally built in 1832 as a private residence by a Virginia General, The Martha Washington Hotel & Spa has seen many different uses. From a private residence, it evolved into a finishing school for young ladies. When the armies of the Civil War battled in and around Abingdon, the building served as a hospital for wounded soldiers, and romantic stories of nurses and soldiers still endure to this day. After the Civil War, The Martha became a women's college, and today it is an elegant hotel, paying homage to its gracious Southern roots and enduring historic legacy. This charming historic hotel offers deluxe accommodations and premier suites, each one unique in decor and furnishings and all with luxury amenities and distinguished services.
The hotel once served as a finishing school for young ladies in the late 1800s.
