History
Hotel Roanoke opened in 1882 as a railroad hotel for the Norfolk and Western, designed by George T. Pearson with about 35 rooms. Expansions followed as Roanoke grew; the familiar Tudor facade and entrance date to the 1937-38 work by George B. Post & Sons. After a period of decline the hotel was restored and reopened on 3 April 1995 with an adjacent conference center, first under DoubleTree, then Curio Collection by Hilton in 2016. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Virginia Tech Foundation has owned the hotel in the recent period; the guest-facing brand is Curio Collection.
