The Sewanee Inn

Exceptional property The hotel is beautiful, beautifully located and beautifully apportioned need. It is sparkling clean and fresh. The restaurant menu is somewhat limited. The food was excellent, ample and reasonably priced.

Nice hotel, condescending guest services The stay itself was nice enough, but upon checking in we were informed that we had two reservations. I only received confirmation for one. We got on the phone with both ******* and Mr Hampton in guest services. Mr Hampton claimed the room was prepaid, but it was not and this was confirmed by *******. Mr Hampton insisted that only ******* could refund us, but ******* said they could not issue a refund because they did not collect the payment. ******* authorized Sewanee Inn to issue a refund, but Mr Hampton refused. We finally asked and were transferred to someone else who explained they have a 72 hour cancellation policy to which I said I didn’t even know about the second reservation because I never received confirmation and asked how could I cancel a reservation that I didn’t know existed. I asked if they could make an exception to their cancellation policy and was told only the general manager has that authority. We still hope to resolve the issue.

Wonderful weekend stay We had a lovely stay at the Sewanne Inn. The lobby is beautiful and cozy and the staff was welcoming and went out of their way to accommodate us. Its proximity to the university is perfect for exploring the campus and hiking trails.We didn’t golf or tennis but the facilities looked nice. The breakfast at Shakerag restaurant is not to be missed. Overall, we had a rejuvenating stay.

We had a wonderful stay while visiting The University of the South and would definitely return!

This is a beautiful property! It is lovely to walk around the grounds near Sewanee, the University of the South. The restaurant is very cozy, and the food is fantastic! The staff was amiable and accommodating! We will stay there again!

Stayed one night, had dinner in the restaurant and a very wonderful stay overall. Highly recommend. A very charming property!
