The new Little Mod Hotel, steps away from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, is a groovy getaway for 1960s-style aficionados, parents traveling with teens on a college visit or a graduation weekend.
Opened in September 2023, this midcentury-modern property is flush with vintage vibes. Each of its 15 guest rooms includes a pistachio-colored mini-fridge, a record player with a wide range of albums (from Elvis and The Beatles to Ray Charles and John Coltrane)—and a phone that looks like an old-fashioned rotary dial but works by push button.
King bed or double queen configurations are available and include a small sofa or two chairs, along with light-filled bathrooms done up in colorful tiles. Five larger studio king rooms have a full-size fridge, microwave and wet-bar area.
Don’t miss breakfast or lunch at The Mod Pod, the hotel’s onsite Airstream turned outdoor food counter. Order an açaà smoothie and one of the popular breakfast tacos (filled with egg, chimichurri, avocado, pico de gallo, pickled onions and your choice of a protein) or opt for a waffle cone stuffed with steak, red pepper crema, avocado and roasted vegetables.
Rates begin at $189 per night. Pet-friendly rooms available.
