Welcome to The Publisher, Downtown Fredericksburg, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

Experience the Story of our Downtown Fredericksburg Hotel

Welcome to The Publisher Fredericksburg, where modern luxury meets rich local heritage. Located on the historic site of The Free Lance–Star newspaper, our boutique hotel honors the city’s legacy of storytelling while embracing its vibrant future. Ideally positioned at the gateway to downtown Fredericksburg, guests are steps away from charming shops, unique dining experiences, and cultural landmarks. Inside, The Publisher offers thoughtfully designed accommodations featuring high-end amenities: large-screen internet-enabled TVs, separate sitting areas, elegant marble bathrooms with rainfall showers, and many rooms with private outdoor balconies. Savor elevated American cuisine at FIVE Chophouse & Bar, where bold flavors and refined service create a dining experience as memorable as your stay. The Publisher Hotel is more than a destination—it’s Fredericksburg’s modern press house, circulating stories through every guest experience.
