Brewstel Brew Shop and Hostel

Had an amazing time during our stay at the Brewstel. We used it as a home base for a ski trip to Snowshoe and it worked great for our group of 9 to chill during our time off the mountain. Lots of good food in the area and great local beers right downstairs.

This hostel was one of the cleanest and best step-ups that I've been to (definitely in the US). Cubbies under the beds for each bunk (bring a lock), 4 showers (bring a towel), 3 toilets and a urinal. Beds were comfortable, sturdy, and didn't squeak. Good heat and cool kitchen/living room areas.

Best part was our host, Tim, who was super friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely be back next time in in the area.

I was traveling to Snowshoe for opening day and rather than pay $150+ per night for a hotel/air-b&b on the mountain, I decided to give Brewstel a shot and am I glad I did. This was my first time staying in a hostel and fully enjoyed the experience. The staff couldn't have been friendlier, the bunk room and common areas were clean and had character, and the beer downstairs was amazing. Seeing as I make the trip to board almost every other weekend, with Brewstel being only a 45 minute drive to the mountain, I will certainly be coming back!

Been there two years ago. The staff is amazing and the beers are great. Hipster greatness with that West-Virginia charm. As a tourist from abroad I was received with open arms!

Store's website has the wrong hours listed for the brew shop. Drove over an hour for a store that is closed. Shows 11 but doesn't open until 2.

Finally was able to get ahold of them after 4. They acted like they were inconvenienced by my call and did not want to take the time to work with me. Might be the only place around but not worth the hastle of dealing with someone who doesn't want your business.

Met up with some friends to catch up. Great calm layed back spot to chill and have a drink. The brews were so good can't say I've had better. Highly Recommend

Hopped on my motorcycle and left Richmond that morning, After a beautiful day of twists I was tuckered out. Rain clouds were looming and it was colder then the flatlands. Other lodging in the area looked empty and stale, I found this place on Air BnB and just rolled up. super nice guy Cody gave me a room and a much needed actually very good stout. I had the room all to my self and picked a nice bunk near the window. There was a local metal band with some friendly fellows who loved to shread hardrock getting ready in the kitchen area and they made me feel at home and we drank fireball. Then they played while I tasted other beers. excellent small town experience in the heart of beautiful West Virginia, The roof top deck was nice to chill on and had a great view of the mountains. Great spot for breakfast around the corner. 5 stars stay, 25$ 4$ beers.

If you ever go to Elkins stay here!!!! Kody was working when we arrived and was so accommodating and very friendly. The rooms were perfect and we will definitely be staying here if we are ever back!!!

Me and my friend stayed here when we went to the mountain bike park at snowshoe. It was not that far of a drive and was in a great little town!
I loved the style of the hostel as they are bunks with a full size kitchen and tons of cook wear. The person who managed it was very nice as well. Would highly recommend!
