About this property

Welcome to The Historic Brookstown Inn | Trademark Collection by Wyndham

Housed in a converted 1837 redbrick cotton mill, The Historic Brookstown Inn | Trademark Collection by Wyndham offers a distinctive setting blending historic charm with modern amenities. The property features rooms outfitted with microwaves and minifridges, and some include kitchen facilities. Guests consistently note the inn’s well-preserved architectural details such as exposed beams and unique floor layouts that reflect its industrial origins.

The inn provides several complimentary offerings including a hot breakfast, evening wine and cheese receptions, and freshly baked cookies with milk or hot beverages, creating a welcoming atmosphere for relaxation. Although there is no on-site restaurant, the nearby local dining scene is easily accessible on foot from the property. Facilities include free Wi-Fi, free parking, air conditioning, a fitness center, a golf course, and a smoke-free environment; however, the hotel does not offer a business center, pool, airport shuttle, or pet accommodations.

Located at 200 Brookstown Avenue in downtown Winston-Salem, the inn is within a short walk to historic Old Salem Museums & Gardens and the Reynolda House Museum of American Art, popular spots for cultural and historical exploration. Several guest reviews highlight the convenience of the location for sightseeing as well as the helpfulness of the staff in providing local recommendations.

Feedback from guests generally reflects appreciation for the unique character and comfortable accommodations, though some mention occasional noise due to the building’s old mill structure and variability in bed comfort. The layout, which allows direct outdoor access to rooms, can be confusing to first-time visitors. The property’s atmosphere, thoughtful amenities, and historic setting make it well suited for leisure travelers, history enthusiasts, families, and small event or wedding gatherings seeking a distinctive venue in Winston-Salem.

You can’t go wrong with Brookstown Inn! This is our third visit and it did not disappoint. The rooms and atmosphere are homey and have a historic feel with the exposed beams from the original mill. The staff are superb, not to mention the amenities like a warm breakfast and cookies at bedtime. We love the quaint, delicious Italian restaurant across the street, Di Lisio’s as well.

I've been staying here for pretty much my whole life and have enjoyed every stay. The location is perfect for getting to downtown and anywhere else you want to go. The rooms are all beautiful and have all the amenities one needs. The staff is always helpful and courteous. Wine & cheese, cookies & milk plus board games means that you have all the opportunities to relax and enjoy your stay. I would say that the hotel is also great if you're here for work. Definitely would recommend to anyone and everyone.

Quaint inn, first time staying. I liked the look of the room. The service was good. They have a cheese and wine reception. That was very nice. It was difficult finding my way around as the floors are not like a hotel. You can walk in and out of the building to get to your room. My room was very nice. Loved the bathroom! However my bed was not comfortable. I woke several times throughout the night. The continental breakfast was okay. The staff at front desk were very nice. I would love to come back ..but the bed is a huge turn off. A few other people in my group (we were there for a conference) said they didn't sleep well either.

Let me just say—I've traveled extensively, and this hotel stands out as one of my absolute favorites in North Carolina. From the moment we arrived on September 8, 2025, the experience was exceptional. The young man who checked us in delivered top-tier customer service. He was not only professional but also incredibly knowledgeable about the area, offering great recommendations for local dining spots. What truly made our stay unforgettable was the compassion and respect shown to my adult son, who has cerebral palsy. The same young man worked both nights of our visit and went above and beyond to ensure my son felt welcomed and valued—not just as a guest, but as a person. That kind of kindness is rare and deeply appreciated. For the adults, happy hour was a lovely touch. And for the kids and non-drinkers, the hotel offered milk and cookies—a sweet gesture that made everyone feel included. The entire staff was friendly, warm, and genuinely caring. It was such a refreshing experience. If you're considering a place to stay, I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel. You won’t regret it.

We had a wonderful stay at The Historic Brookstown Inn | Trademark Collection by Wyndham in Winston-Salem over the New Year. We stayed in the East Wing, and from the moment we arrived, the historic charm of the property was unmistakable—you truly feel the history as you walk through the buildings and grounds. Misty, the bartender, was fantastic and did a great job setting up the cheese and wine, which was a really nice touch and a great way to relax in the evening. My wife and I also found the location very walkable, which we appreciated since we enjoy exploring on foot. The complimentary breakfast was phenomenal—especially the sausages, which were honestly some of the best we’ve had anywhere. There were only two minor negatives worth mentioning. The bed in our room was a bit lumpy, and the tree uplighting outside our room (154) pointed directly into the window. Unfortunately, the blinds didn’t fully block out the brightness at night. Neither issue detracted significantly from our overall experience, but they’re worth noting. All in all, this is a unique, charming, and memorable place to stay. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a historic and comfortable stay in Winston-Salem.

Full of character & charm, this is a unique hotel built within the original textile mills of the Salem area. Walking distance to Old Salem & many restaurants. Rooms are spacious & well appointed. The bed was particularly comfortable. Each evening, the onsite lounge offers one free wine or beer with cheese & crackers. Free breakfast is pretty comprehensive, with eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits & gravy plus other cold options. Bedtime, fresh cookies & milk are complimentary in the common area, which is comfortably furnished. Friendly, professional staff. Can’t say enough about this unique property.

Convenient location to Old Salem, walking distance. Our room on the 2nd floor was spacious, clean and well appointed. Wine/Cheese reception in the evening was a nice touch. Hot breakfast in the morning was perfect too. Because it is an old building, we could hear other guests walking around above us but things settled down by evening - this was not an issue, simply setting expectations for other review readers. All the staff from the minute we walked in to when we left was very welcoming and kind. We will definitely stay here again.
