Mount Airy is proud of its legacy as the location that inspired the settings for the Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry R.F.D. The city is host to an annual Mayberry Days celebration that takes place during the last week of September. If you want to reminisce during a more leisurely time, you can stop by Floyd's City Barbershop or grab a pork chop sandwich anytime of the year. Mount Airy innkeepers look forward to showing you their Mayberry-style hospitality.

The hotel offers a variety of romance and wedding packages to enhance such special occasions.
