The original Winston-Salem landmark

The Historic Brookstown Inn has stood on Brookstown Avenue since 1837, first as a mill, then as warehouse space, and since 1984 as an inn. Seventy-one rooms now fill two restored mill buildings, no two quite alike, with exposed brick and heavy timber throughout. Hot breakfast, parking and WiFi come with every stay. Old Salem is a short walk, and so is most of downtown.

A storied past

Francis Fries built the Salem Manufacturing Company on this site in 1837. It milled cotton, then flour, and by 1942 held nothing but warehouse stock. Demolition was scheduled in 1976 until Old Salem stepped in. The inn opened in 1984 with forty-one rooms, and thirty more followed in 1991.

Steps from Old Salem

Old Salem Museums and Gardens is a short walk from the front door and Reynolda House a few minutes beyond it. The inn sits off US-52 and I-40, twenty-three miles from Piedmont Triad International.

Home

The building does the talking

Brick walls standing since 1837, timber beams left exposed, and a history exhibit in the lobby you can walk through before breakfast.

The City of Arts and Innovation

Winston-Salem keeps an Arts District and an Innovation Quarter within walking distance of one another, and the inn sits between them.
