Staying at Hotel Madison means adventure is all around you, like checking out local breweries and exploring Shenandoah National Park. Our hotel is also close to downtown Harrisonburg. This charming downtown is filled with lush green squares, quaint shops, and so much to discover. Give yourself plenty of time to wander downtown and see what you can find. To help give you a head start, we’ve put together a list of some of our favorite places to visit.

Go Shopping

Downtown Harrisonburg is a shopper’s paradise. The streets are lined with an eclectic array of boutiques, galleries, and specialty shops. Head to Liberty Street Mercantile to explore Asdelia Mae Boutique, Parentheses Books, and Blakemore’s Flowers. See what hidden treasures you can find at Dart Resale & Trade, which carries modern and vintage secondhand clothing. If you’re looking for something shiny or sparkly, check out Hugo Kohl Fine Jewelry or Elk Run Mining Co. 

Learn Something New

Downtown is not only the perfect place to find something new but also to learn something new. This is because of the museums here. The Explore More Discovery Museum is an interactive museum designed for children and families. The Civil War Orientation Center teaches visitors about the Civil War history of the Shenandoah Valley.

Memorable Events

The local businesses that call this area home are known to host memorable events throughout the year. Check out the calendar of events to see what is taking place during your visit. Downtown is also where you can find the Harrisonburg Farmers Market, a great place to shop local vendors.

Be Close to All the Action | Stay at Hotel Madison

While Hotel Madison is close to all the fun downtown Harrisonburg has to offer, our spacious hotel gives guests a peaceful place to call home. After a day of exploration, refuel with a delicious meal at Monty’s Restaurant or Quill’s Lounge. Go for a swim in our indoor saltwater pool or relax by the fireplace in the lobby.

When you’re ready to call it a day, relax in your luxurious yet cozy room. With accommodations ranging from rooms to suites, we have a lodging style that works for you. Our hotel in Harrisonburg also features extended-stay rooms and pet-friendly options! Learn more about our accommodation options or ways to save on your stay by calling 833-564-0200.
