Additional Information
Additional details
Whether you’re hosting a small board meeting, a large training seminar, or a corporate banquet for up to 250 guests, The Clifton’s sprawling 100-acre estate offers an array of atmospheric settings for meetings and conferences. Treat your guests to the best of everything at our unique and inspiring alternative to the usual meeting hotels in Charlottesville. From an intimate secret garden, a croquet lawn edged by flower gardens, and the court tent with access to the infinity pool and pergolas, to several indoor spaces that can be converted into unique meeting areas with full AV capabilities, we have the ideal space for any event. Enjoy full-service menu, beverage planning, and exceptional catering cuisine ranging from breakfasts, lunches, and coffee breaks to elegant plated affairs. ...And if you are looking for luxury guest accommodations, few boutique hotels capture both the rich heritage and chic, modern wine country lifestyle of Charlottesville, VA like The Clifton. With 20 guest rooms and suites arranged among five beautifully restored late 18th and early 19th century buildings, we offer the ideal accommodations for families, leisure groups, business retreats, and wedding parties. Our options include the Manor House with seven rooms and suites; the Carriage House with three rooms – including a two-story bridal suite; the Cottage with two rooms; and the Livery Stables with three suites. For larger parties or more privacy, we recommend Collina, a charming farmhouse with five rooms. While each room is unique in its design and architecture, what they share are lush, rich interiors and an elegant combination of repurposed antiques, modern furniture, and sophisticated artwork. All are outfitted with fine linens, Malin & Goetz bath products, and modern amenities, while select accommodations have fireplaces, private patios, claw-foot soaking tubs, or rainfall showers by Waterworks.
