Shenandoah Mansions adorns the charms and intellects of the old world, whilst remaining refreshingly American. With 73 guest rooms, including four opulent suites, a mystical bar, an elegant restaurant, daily cafe and an on-site retail store, Shenandoah Mansions is an ode to the matriarchs and the grande dames, to witchcraft and fantasy, ghosts and fever dreams. With hidden nooks and corners, there are secrets to uncover within these palatial halls.
