Welcome to the Berry Loft! Your private apartment on the second floor of a building first constructed in 1877 for a successful cordage business. After undergoing a five-year historic rehabilitation to preserve all of the details possible, the building is now known as Waterfront Hall. A bustling food hall, bar, music venue, and event space. You will have stellar views of the mighty Ohio River, and the best home base possible in the heart of downtown Wheeling.
The Space:
You’ll be greeted by the unmistakable charm of exposed brick walls that exude character and warmth. The raw, rugged texture of the bricks serves as a nod to the building’s industrial past.
Our spacious living area is bathed in natural light through tall 10ft windows, illuminating the many thoughtful design features. The open floor plan seamlessly integrates the living, dining, and kitchen areas, creating an ideal space for both relaxation and entertaining.
Our brand new kitchen is equipped with high-end stainless steel appliances, and includes an espresso machine, cookware and basic cooking ingredients such as salt, pepper, olive oil, sugar and flour.
The bedroom is a comfortable retreat, boasting a cozy atmosphere enhanced by the exposed brick wall and large window with views of the surrounding area. For you to use are luggage racks, ample closet space and a dresser ensuring plenty of storage for your wardrobe and belongings, as well as a vanity.
The living area contains a 75in HDTV and two couches that can sleep two people on each.
Things to keep in mind:
You'll be directly above a music venue and food hall (see hours of food hall and link to event schedule below)
- PROS: great food, drinks, and entertainment a short elevator ride away.
- CONS: it can get noisy
It’s important to us that we are as transparent and proactive about the noise you could experience during your stay. Noise machines and a record player are supplied to help mitigate any noise to ensure you have the most comfortable stay we can offer.
Live events happening in the music hall can be found on the Waterfront Hall website!

The surrounding area:
Directly in front of where you’ll stay is Heritage Port, a linear 3-acre waterfront park consisting of an amphitheater, pathways to the water’s edge and mooring facilities. During the summer months the park is the site for many annual festivals, river-front fireworks, and weekly concerts/movies, among other events. Additionally, you can find access to Heritage Trail, a paved 18-mile walking/biking trail that extends down the eastern bank of the Ohio River.
All within a 1 minute walk down the street, you can find locally sourced produce and health conscious groceries at the Public Market and WesBanco Arena for a Nailers hockey game, concert, or sporting event.

Super cute property in a great location in Wheeling. It took me a second to find the door as it is located behind a bar/restaurant (and doesn't look like an apartment building - and the owner was very responsive and helpful) but once I got in I was very impressed. It's a great space with modern amenities and a very cool loft vibe.

Thank you James! We hope to have you back in the future.
This place is STUNNING! So open and beautiful! The view from all the windows was fantastic too. I was so happy that the bed was incredibly comfortable making our stay that much better! We didn't use the kitchen to cook, but if you needed to, everything was there. We got in to town late, so it was a little intimidating to find the doors to get in, but the key box was right there as described, I just didn't follow the directions like I should have. Paige was very helpful and a great communicator too. I will say that because the unit is above a restaurant you can hear people and music while they are open, but for sleeping we had sound spas that pretty much drowned the sound out for sleeping. Otherwise everything was PERFECT!
