Located on the historic site of The Free Lance–Star newspaper, our AAA Four Diamond awarded boutique hotel in Fredericksburg, VA honors the city’s legacy of storytelling while embracing its vibrant future.

Savor elevated American cuisine at FIVE Chophouse & Bar, where bold flavors and refined service create a dining experience as memorable as your stay.
