The room is very nicely appointed and the location is truly great. Everything is walking distance. we really enjoyed our stay. There is no one on site to check-in with like a more conventional hotel.

We recently had our first "Octoberfest" experience in Helen, GA! Our pick for our stay was the Castle Inn right on Main Street! We were very impressed with the newly renovated rooms including the new flat panel TV's. The location was perfect for an in-town stay! All the balconies are private!!! There is no elevator and no extra's like a... More

This hotel really does have a great location. The people at A-1 vacations were very nice as well. We booked Room 203, at $89/night. The room actually has a really nice large flat screen they don't show on the picture on the website. If I would have booked earlier I would have definitely went with a street view room. Even... More

Noisy - if you want sleep don't stay here. No ice in the ice machine. Bathroom counter too small to put anything on but a toothbrush. This place was just old and run down and too much money for what little you get. More

While the rooms in the rear of the hotel do have a view of the "Hooch" river from the small yet cozy balcony, you... More
