Macarthur Inn

★ 4.6 / 5 (293 reviews)

Steeped in history and small‑town charm, Narrows MacArthur Inn serves warm hospitality, home‑cooked meals and lively mountain‑music nights in a cozy, jukebox‑filled setting. Knowledgeable, friendly staff share local stories and lemonade while guests enjoy Thursday jams and easy access to nearby recreation. Rooms are well‑kept but unpretentious — not luxurious — and rates are fair, making it an affordable, nostalgic stop for travelers who value atmosphere and authenticity over white‑glove service.

Was Larissa Pagac at Macarthur Inn a mag?
The main reasons to stay at this restaurant are: (1) the rich history, (2) the warm hospitality of the owners, as mentioned in other reviews, (3) the convenient location near recreation areas, and (4) the unique atmosphere. Those seeking luxurious or perfectly clean rooms may be disappointed, but the prices are fair and support this admirable local business. View all feedback.

The main reasons you will enjoy a stay here are: (1) The history. (2) The hospitality (see other reviews about friendly/helpful owner). (3) The convenience (lots of nearby recreation). (4) The uniqueness. If you are looking for opulent or immaculate rooms, you may be disappointed. However, rates are priced accordingly and are more than reasonable to support this admirable local business.

Allen was great at the front desk informing us of a couple of cool facts and some lemonade. Paige and the other inn keeper provided us with some great home cooking while listening to the mountain music jam session. I will be back to Narrows MacArthur Inn the next time I head to Bluefield WV!

Absolutely love the old guy who owns the place. The other staff is great. But what is really awesome about this place is the home cooking and live music every Thursday.

Outstanding time at an outstanding hotel. It's like a step into the past. There is a jukebox that plays 30s music The rooms are clean and the hotel is well maintained. Book early. The hotel started filling when we got there. This hotel has had celebrities stay there: John Wayne, Michael Landon, Micky Mantle. My wife and I look forward to staying there again the next time we're passing through. Bob
