The Hotel Albemarle is a three-story structure on West Main Street that is currently home to several businesses and non-profits.

History

The Hotel Albemarle was first built in 1896 by Michael Gleason, a Nelson County native who became a major businessman in Charlottesville. [1] It was first built as a lodging facility called the Gleason Hotel. It was originally next to another structure built by Gleason.

The hotel was sold twice in the early 20th century and became the Albemarle Hotel in 1933. It is now owned and managed by Stonehaus. Tenants include the Quest Bookshop.
