About this property

Cottage Suite 2 - King Studio Apt.

Where old-world charm and boutique chic meet!

Nestled in the heart of downtown Fort Payne, The Cottage is a charming boutique hotel that boasts 4 hotel-style suites and traces its roots back to 1936. Renovated with meticulous care, this historical bungalow offers a unique blend of vintage allure and contemporary comfort.

Upon entering, guests are welcomed into the cottage lobby where the owner's son has a snack bar. Grab a snack and leave a donation to encourage his entrepreneurial spirit and support his endeavors!

The boutique hotel boasts four thoughtfully designed suites, each exuding its own personality and charm. While the decor pays homage to the historical context, it deviates from the time period, offering a refreshing and eclectic twist. The fusion of bold colors, art pieces, and unique furnishings creates a dynamic atmosphere that both surprises and delights guests.

The original walls and flooring, carefully retained during the renovation, add a touch of authenticity to the spaces. In each suite, guests can appreciate the contrast between the historical elements and the tasteful, unique decor. The result is a harmonious blend of old and new, creating an ambiance that is both cozy and sophisticated.

Step outside and unwind in the open air. Whether enjoying a morning coffee on the porch or an evening cocktail in the yard, The Cottage offers a retreat that harmonizes with the vibrant energy of downtown Fort Payne.

This boutique hotel is not just a place to stay; it's a curated experience that celebrates the history of the bungalow while embracing the contemporary spirit of modern design. Each suite tells a story of its own, offering a unique and memorable escape in the heart of a historic city.

Cottage Suite #2 accommodates up to two people. It has a king bed, a kitchenette, & a penny floor in the bath. It is ideal for guests desiring to be within walking distance of downtown.

Not for me
I chose this room from the pictures that showed a chair that was possibly a recliner due to my arthritis and hi replacements I have had. I inquired before booking and was told there were no recliners. I booked it anyway because of that chair in the picture which was nowhere to be found. I received an access code and Wi-Fi information on the app. A couple of hours before check in time I received an anonymous message saying they would send my code. I told them I had a code. Got to the room and the code would not work. Finally got in the room, no chair and Wi-Fi code did not work. Got the tv on but it would not accept my checkout date.No tv. Bed was so high I had trouble getting on it and coffee maker was dirty. The house it’s self was nice. Clean other than the coffee pot. The last night I came home and was locked out. None of the codes I had worked to get in the door,. I liked where it was located but would not stay there again.
