Detailed Reviews
If you like historic hotels, you will enjoy the Village Inn built in the 1930s. It has a charm that you will not find in more modern accommodations. We had an upstairs room with a tub, and it was quiet and comfortable. The wharf area of old-town St. Simons is a short walk away, so there are numerous dining and shopping options nearby. The Inn offers complimentary breakfast: made to order omelettes, waffles, bagels, cinnamon rolls, muffins, fresh fruit salad, yogurt, coffee and tea. The staff was extraordinarily pleasant, and we do not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Excellent; plan to re-visit at least twice/year. Best trip we’ve ever taken. Village Inn and Pub 5🌟!
Super value for $—loved every minute! Breakfast provided was amazing; well-prepared, comfortable setting, variety offered was delicious and healthy. Best we’ve ever experienced, and accommodations were superb, as well. Staff is friendly and personable, and make their guests feel connected with something wonderful! I’m getting homesick just thinking about our 3+_day visit. My husband brings it up daily: “I’m ready to go back to St. Simon’s Billage Inn and Pub!” Me, too!

We stayed 3 nights at Village Inn and Pub. Its location was central to restaurants, shopping, and attractions within easy walking distance. Our room was clean, bright and immaculately clean. Inn staff were consistently friendly and helpful. The Pub area is cozy and the wood fire in the fireplace was a nice touch on the chilly mornings during our stay. The continental breakfast buffet with a waffle maker and upscale coffee maker was both tasty and convenient. We were hopeful to be able to use our outdoor balcony to relax but it looked out over Magnolia Street and a parking area and was not very private. Another issue was noise from the pub area at night. Loud patrons overflowing onto the pool patio area made for noisy evenings until the pub shut down. It will likely be even noisier when the weather warms up. Bring earplugs if you plan to go to bed early. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant stay and certainly nicer than any of the plain vanilla chain hotels on St. Simon's Island.

Check in was easy and the person was friendly. The room was clean and nicely furnished. The beds made so much noise when you moved on them that my husband nor I slept well. Walk in showers would be nice but definitely need grab bars if they are going to keep the tubs. Biggest disappointment was that the room includes breakfast and several reviews mentioned how delicious it is unfortunately they were not offering cooked breakfast when we were there (Covid restrictions) so they offered us continental choices. I thought they would at least be freshly baked muffins, pastries or comparable. They were prepackaged food items that we do not eat due to preservatives etc. and they were apparently out of the flavors we selected? Even the boiled eggs were prepackaged?! We did not eat any of it. Checkout was an unpleasant surprise as their were more charges that accompanied the reservation that somehow I missed since I thought that room cost, taxes and fees would have included everything but apparently it does not. The person checking me out was abrupt and started waiting on another customer before she ever finished with me. I finally just walked out

Stayed at this Inn for two nights and would not recommend this place. We were told the inn’s pub would have an acoustic guitarist playing for guests in the evening. Unfortunately it turned out they had a loud band both nights—so loud we felt they were playing right next to our room. There were so many patrons at the small pub that they took parking for inn guests leaving us to fend for ourselves.
The breakfast was limited offerings of cold cereal, yogurt and muffins. We felt the muffins were not homemade, but were store bought packaged muffins. While we understand breakfast was limited due to COVID-19, it was not what one would expect from an Inn.
I would not recommend staying at this inn.

This is an adorable little place with clean, cool rooms, awesome location, and friendly staff. However, our experience was shadowed somewhat by the following:
1) Breakfast is now a brown bag with yogurt, dry cereal, muffin, fruit due to "covid." However, it became very obvious that this is just a cost savings, not an actual covid concern. Why? Because at night when there is live music, 25+ guests are crammed in to a tiny space that holds maybe 12 people comfortably. I have NO issue with this as people can choose to be in whatever crowds they choose. But, don't pretend the lack of a good breakfast is due to covid concerns when there is a much higher chance of a virus spreading by all the folks dancing together than there is with a few folks at a time wandering in for breakfast. It's saving you time and money; just be honest about it.
2) I was stunned by the $20 PER NIGHT "amenity fee" that we were hit with at checkout. When I questioned it on the bill, I was told it was for-get ready for this-the $3 discount drink coupons provided and the brown bag breakfast. Um, what?? Listen, keep your drink coupon and I can walk down the street for breakfast for way less than $20! I couldn't believe that was the answer.
So, if the Inn corrects these 2 issues I believe this would be a wonderful little place to stay, provided some lounge chairs are purchased for the pool. Right now there's just regular patio chairs in which you must sit upright. Not a big deal, but didn't encourage hanging out by the pool.

Does this place want to be a popular place to stay or do they want to be a bar? Locals patronize and pack out the bar so that the people staying there get squeezed out.
We had a group of about 10 staying here and we couldn’t go inside the bar/pub due to the overflow of locals. We sat outside due to the bar being overcrowded and the bouncer (security) asked us to go to our rooms or go inside the bar (we’re staying here and the gathering places are small).
We’re a group of 40+ year old professionals. Our group has been coming for about 8 years and I’m trying to convince the group to go elsewhere after the last several stays. This place has turned into a little bit of redneck central. Still a nice place to stay but the pub and the motel no longer have the same vibe. If you want to get treated like you aren’t paying for a room here then, by all means, stay. This place has worn out it’s charm.

My wife & I originally booked 2 nights at the Inn; but after one evening there....we were gone. We stayed in Rm 201. It is in serious need of a rehab. The AC is perfectly positioned to blow on your face/head. Kinda sounded like a B-29. My wife said that the sheets looked like antiques....old and pilled. Needless to say, this was not a good night's sleep. OK, for some nice words...we went to the Bar/Pub during happy hour. It was fun.

I had taken a bus trip from Ohio down there about 10 years ago and loved the Inn so I wanted my husband to see it. We stayed in Room 204 (last time was room 104) which was right below us. The layout of the room was the same~just in reverse. The room had been kept nice and looked like they had upgraded it. I would say I enjoyed being on the first floor more than the second but it wasn't a deal breaker. We went down to the pub the first night and used our $ 3.00 off cards for drinks and enjoyed talking with the bartender. He gave us some good suggestions on places to eat during the week we were there. I was a little disappointed that we had to either take our breakfast back to the room or eat at the tables outside~I enjoyed eating in the little breakfast room/pub the last time I was there. I love the tropical look of the Inn and it's so convenient to everything in the downtown area and pier. I would definitely stay there again!

This Village Inn has a lot going for it even if the buildings are a bit aged. The location is very good, despite being on the sort of main street of a lovely village, a short walk to the pier and garden.
The rooms are small, but really well equipped with classy bedding and puff pillows, a selection of drinks purchasable from the room mimi-fridge as with dressing gowns etc. with a heavy downpour the room umbrella was useful. A TV Guide to stations would be useful to circumvent the endless scrolling of crappy programs. We like the carpeted floors. Disliked the window blinds as inadequate to blocking the pool and other lights. Room 105.
I will commend management on their presentation and breakfast choices, fresh fruits and juices. Also a coffee maker, simple to use and a wide choice of coffees. The odd pastries and savories are good. Even a newspaper, be it USA Today only.

Not sure, but don't go if you want hot water.
They are not.
No, I am sorry we do not have a beach on the bar!
