On Tuesday I received the latest issue of the Clifton Hill Resorts Update newsletter. They have finally announced officially that the Quality Inn Clifton Hill is closing as of October 13. The same information was then posted on the Clifton Hill blog. Here is how it appeared in the newsletter:
First off, that’s a great looking sign! Who knew they had 4 pools?! As for memories, I never personally stayed at the Quality Inn, but I know of and have heard from many people who have stayed there, and loved it. It certainly wasn’t the fanciest hotel around, but it was clean, had a nice indoor and a beautiful outdoor pool, and had an excellent price.
One thing I did think was interesting about the announcement was that there was nothing mentioned about what will be happening with the space/land other than it is being torn down “to make way for new developments”. What are those new developments? It will be interesting to see what comes next.
I did a quick search on the Internet for information about the Fallsway Motor Hotel, and I actually came across a couple of auctions (one of them was Italian) where they are selling an old brochure from 35-40 years ago. There were also auctions for “swizzle sticks” and even an ashtray. I also came across a site for an Elvis tribute artist who performed there.
Fee free to leave a comment about your memories of the Fallsway Motor Hotel, the Quality Inn Fallsway, or the Quality Inn Clifton Hill.
