My wife and I received a warm welcome as soon as we arrived to the Inn. The innkeepers are extremely friendly and knowledgable about the area. They had so many ideas of what we could do, we were sad we could only stay one night. They gave us perfect directions to many terrific hikes and waterfalls. We spent 4 hours... More

My husband and I woke up this morning, and the first thing I said was, "I don't want to leave!" My husband on the other hand said, "I can't wait to eat that breakfast!" :) This was our second trip to Glen Ella Springs Inn, and it was even better than the first time. We stayed in one of the... More

A much needed respite from the real world restored my spirits. Thanks to the individualized attention from Ed and Luci Kivett and their staff, my weekend away was extraordinary. More

The mountains of... More

Glen Ella Springs was the absolute best venue for our wedding and is an overall great place to stay. My husband and I were recently married there and we truly have nothing but good things to say about our experience. It truly was a magical weekend and everyone of our guests continue to comment that our wedding was the “Best... More

Wanting to get away for a romantic night alone with my husband, I searched and found the Glen Ella Springs Inn. Tripadvisor gave it great reviews, and I loved that it had a restaurant on site. Working with Debbie through email was great. She dealt with all my questions, even allowing us to book a one night stay on weekend,... More

About a year ago, it was my husband's turn to plan our periodic "surprise destination." So on our 17th anniversary Glen Ella was "it"! It was well-worth the mystery surrounding the events to come from everything to the quaint atmosphere to the fine dining experience to the available hiking opportunities that lay ahead. So year a year later when we... More

Stayed here for one night in October 2011 on a Road Trip from Washington to Atlanta via the Blue Ridge Mountains. There is no doubting that the Hotel is located in a most enviable location. The grounds are beautifullly maintained and peaceful - it's a shame we didn't have more time to appreciate the peace and quiet. I can see... More

My wife and I came to Glen-Ella for our honeymoon 17 years ago and we had such a great experience that we have come back, occasionally just for dinner but mostly for the entire weekend, every year since, most recently last weekend. I am pleased to report that everything is done just as well as it was in 1994: the... More

This hotel is in a remote location in the foothills of the mountains. Last week, on a glorious autumn day, the surrounding countryside looked absolutely gorgeous. The hotel consists of the main buiding housing reception, the restaurant etc. and then in a separate building, a row of wooden cabins. Our cabin was small and rather basic with minimum insulation and... More
