My Ole Miss wife bought us tickets for the Auburn game in Feb. I usually come to State for the day, so I have no clue where to stay. Would love some suggestions on where to stay and eat. I was thinking downtown might be fun.
I've stayed at both and would recommend either to anybody. Chester is right in the middle of downtown, which is handy. Comfort Suites is a short walk from the Hump.
From 1993 to 1998, the property was operated as the Statehouse Hotel with an associated restaurant. The Hotel also included four one-room offices which front Main Street. All these offices were vacant during that time period. Parcel 1, the old State Theater building, was infrequently used for meetings. Other than the Statehouse restaurant and associated kitchen, no auxiliary services or facilities were located on-site. During 1998, laundry for the facility was processed in the projector room of the old theater.
the shrimp and grits were as good as I've had at Mr. B's on Royal. Vereanda is solid, no complants from me about that place but it has yet to knock me out.
