Affordable hostel lodging on the trail to everywhere. Walk to Main Street, hike the Blue Ridge, and sleep soundly in the shadow of the mountains.
The Merry Inn Hiker Hostel sits on the quiet side of Marion's Main Street — a short walk from restaurants, shops, and the trailheads that lead into the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests.
We're not a resort. We're a place to park your gear, wash up, and sleep well before the next day's adventure. Clean beds. Friendly faces. No pretense.
Every room is designed for one thing: a good night's rest before your next hike.
Shared sleeping quarters with bunk beds, personal reading lights, and secure storage. Meet fellow travelers or keep to yourself — your call.
A door that locks, a real bed, and a quiet corner to decompress after a long day on the trail. Perfect for couples or solo hikers who value privacy.
Our shared lounge, kitchen, and outdoor area are where the hostel comes alive — share trail stories, plan tomorrow's route, or just relax.
206 East Main Street puts you right where the action is — and right where you need to be for the trails beyond town.
Give us a call, send an email, or fill out the form — we'll get back to you as fast as we can.
