We checked into the hostel by chance while driving though the area on our way to Florida The gentleman at the front desk was extremely friendly and very nice He gave me a choice of floors to be on which was appreciated

The room was standard size, with 2 queen beds a desk & dresser & fridge together The beds were comfortable, but I hate the 1/2 pillows The room & the bathroom was clean If I have a complaint there were many scratches and spots that looked like stains on the walls The place could use a new coat of paint Breakfast was a simple fair of waffles, cereals, muffins & breads, instant oatmeal There were no eggs or hot foods, but there were those microwaveable sausage, egg & cheese on a croissant They were actually pretty good It was a Friday night, so it was roughly $180 for the night Not terrible

My only concern is the fraudulent billing The room and breakfast were great and I have no complaints about the stay I later checked my credit card and found an additional $15 charge

I was told it might be a hold, but it did not drop off, and when I called the hotel I was told that the owner added a $15 charge for a missing “small soap dish”? I was never notified of the charge He had email and phone number, but all he really needed was credit card number I wonder how many people get billed additional without knowledge? If anything was really missing, then it was gone before we got there

Staff is friendly, patient, helpful and the only good part about this hotel The building itself is extremely outdated The fitness center had rusted equipment that isn’t even worth using (only had 3 cardio machines and one seated cable machine, no mats, dumbbells, or even a bench)

Despite seeing the house keeping staff work hard, everything felt super dirty (probably because of how old it is) We even had a blanket from the closet that smelled like urine and our bathroom towels had stains on them Also despite what it says on the website, they did not have their signature eggs for breakfast, the only hot item was if you made a waffle Highly recommend choosing elsewhere for your hotel

Chris M

The hotel is good enough, but I was expecting it to be a bit nicer It doesn’t seem to be up to a Double Tree brand Don’t see much difference between this hotel and a Hilton garden Inn

The beds are good, but the bathroom looked old, with poorly installed shower fixtures, and mildew stained calking, and dirty bathroom vent fan Ventilation in the hallways seemed inadequate, with a lot of humidity in the air Breakfast was nice and staff friendly Good enough I suppose, but I was expecting better

Henry Howard

1 The shower head dripped loud enough for me to hear when I was trying to sleep I solved the problem by placing a hand towel underneath the drip and closing the door

2 When I went to the fitness center, the water cooler was empty, as was the hand sanitizer and the anti-bacterial wipes Literally zero water, sanitizer and wipes3 The breakfast buffet was a mess There were few gluten-free options, even though I made the request way ahead of time on my reservation Additionally, when I asked for an egg white omelette, I was told “we don’t have egg whites” I don’t have the time, patience or will to explain to kitchen “help” that if you have eggs for an omelette, then yes you do have the required ingredients for an egg white omelette

I love this hotel! My stay was very luxurious, clean and every amenity was available for use The room itself was decorated very well and very functional for working and relaxing I love that there’s an indoor pool and jacuzzi and access to a washer/dryer to wash my clothes during my visit

I was able to use the computer to print with great ease Hot breakfast was available, but my only suggestion to offer other meat options other the pork and having a small amount of vegan cheese available upon request I was very limited to what I could eat to ensure a hearty meal because the main options were pork

Amber S.

Stayed for the weekend, Friday night to Sunday Greeted with a smile and staff was very helpful Was allowed to change rooms upon arrival then previously booked (2 beds not available when booked)

Enjoyed the breakfast but beware coffee was very hot Hotel was clean and comfortable, worth the money Blankets on bed were a little light, if your cold natured I recommend bringing a blanket My friend and I did not get to enjoy the pool or hot tub due to hours Wish it was open a little later, maybe 10p to 11p for Adults only It would be nice to relax in hot tub after spending the day exploring And pool/hot tub were closed on Sunday which was a bummer because we wanted to use hot tub before checking out since check out is 12 pm (which was great) It’s near many local restaurants and bars so we loved its convenient location Definitely would recommend

Chad Desorcie

We stayed here 4/4-4/5 2022 I would recommend this place to to anyone that would love to kick back and relax go for a swim or maybe use the hot tub The room was big with everything you could ask for Was trying to hook up Xbox for the kids and they sent maintenance right up and he took care of it

Great job Breakfast was great and place was clean Great job to All of you that make this happen keep up the great work We will be back

This is the second hotel stay I’ve had in the Richmond area (previously stayed at the graduate) and for the price, I must say this is the better pick It’s a quick drive into downtown Richmond, the immediate area did not feel threatening for two woman travelers and the hotel is well maintained and cleanIt is atrium style so I will say you can hear the lobby and bar area but honestly it wasn’t too loud as to be an issue

We got the two bedroom with the pullout and it was perfect for our situation The pullout was nothing fancy but I wouldn’t say it was uncomfortable by any means The bathroom is quite small but did not pose an issue to us Having a door between the two bedrooms was perfect for privacy and both rooms were quite largeThe lobby was great and even offered a nightly snack, we didn’t partake but I believe it was things like a vegetable and meat and cheese tray Contrary to other reviews there is definitely a bar, pictured belowMy only issue and one that definitely could have been avoided with a question on my part was the deposit being the same price as the the entire stay so you’re essentially having double your funds unavailable at once Not an issue for everyone but definitely something to ask about or keep in mindThe front desk staff was very friendly and helpful although the housekeeping staff did knock multiple times one morning when we had a do not disturb sign on the doorOverall I recommend this hotel and I would stay again next time I’m in town

Leslie Theodorakakos

First I would say the front desk staff was very nice…always smiled and greeted us The breakfast was also very nice We were in town for a graduation and it was Mother’s Day weekend, so the hotel was crowded and VERY noisy on Saturday night

We went to graduation on Sunday and when we returned, our room had not been cleaned When I called the front desk for towels and coffee on Monday morning I was told that, since the start of the pandemic, rooms have not been cleaned daily because staff shortages I understand, but there are no signs in the room letting guests know The rooms are comfortable but quite outdated No bottled water was provided and only shampoo and conditioner as far as toiletries were provided The bathrooms are extremely small For the price we paid, I wouldn’t recommend the hotel nor would I stay again

tideroll55

I read several reviews and decided to stay here to see how it was Overall experience was EXCELLENT I would definitely stay here again

Jason the guy who checked us in went above and beyond They even started up the two free drinks at 530pm Indoor pool was fantastic Continental Breakfast was AMAZING Even though its a fancy hotel, I think to go plates for breakfast would be great

Stayed here for a few nights over Thanksgiving It was fine Not great

Not bad Just fine The rooms we had were good Clean, comfy and nothing to complain about The facility itself? It’s tired It’s like the conference center that time forgot about Brick sidewalks settling too far, creating uneven paths Weeds in the landscaping beds Wallpaper nicked and ripped in the hallways Any of these crucial things? No, not at all But just not as a pleasant as other places Perhaps the prices (which are good) reflect that? In summary, the Burger King cup in the picture was there, on the post in the parking lot, the entire time we were there No staff thought to remove it and throw it in the trash/recycling I think that’s a testament to the place A fine place but the details are overlookedThat all being said, it’s a good value and I will being staying there again because I’m OK with the flaws Others might not be and should know in advance

Linda R

The Hotel is outside the city of Richmond but just a short drive The hotel buildings and grounds are very charming

All the wait staff were wonderful and very accommodating to your needs The food for breakfast which was included with our stay was very good Plenty of choices to choose from on the buffet Dinner in the Tavern was very good too Everything was freshly made

Donna Rodocker

Recently stayed at the Virginia Crossing Hotel The hotel is under some renovations as with any construction project there are nuances that are part of the project so because of that the hotel itself rates a ⭐️⭐️⭐️However, the staff at Virginia Crossing Hotel are the real gem of the hotel

They are fantastic! Seriously, I have not met a kinder, friendlier, and hospitable group of people I did not take all staff members names but, Tamara, Dakota, Katie, Carla, Taylor, Selene, and so many others that I didn’t get their name are truly of a servant heart! ✝️⭐️They wanted to truly take care of me and even exceed expectations! Oh my gosh, I love them! And because of this the hotel gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️The hotel is very close to many things one would frequent in their own town like gas, grocery store, fast food, and nail salons, etc So if you left home without ityou could find what your needing within a mile of the hotelBlessings & safe travels 💫

Allison Xanthopoulos

Great location, walkable to restaurants and stores Super cute, updated but kitschy feel to this old building The decor is super cute

Fun bar area, and the rooftop pool is perfect for lounging although you may need to fight someone for an actual lounge chair! Also I wish the walkway between the pool and rooftop car was actually usable but it was locked Rooms are cute, bathroom is absolutely tiny, as in, only one person can even fit at a time but also cute

Takiyah Brown

We checked into Graduate Richmond on 8/4/22 to attend a Conference Upon checking in and arriving to the room, we knew it was not going to be the greatest experience The carpet was filthy, the shower curtain had stains and the room just looked old and dated

We cleaned the room ourselves because it appears as if housekeeping was lacking All of the furniture in the room was completely dated and it was just dusty The building appeared completely dated We figured we would be there for only 3 nights, so we attempted to make the best of it Our party had headaches after the first nights stay which leads us to 8/5/22 Our party had headaches all day long When we returned to our room the night of 8/5/22, our carpet was completely wet We all woke up again on 8/6/22 with headaches and it was just unbearable the night of 8/7/22, so we called the front desk to inform Nicole that someone in our party was really sick and we needed to check out a day early Nicole’s response was that we would still be responsible for the cost of the stay No offer to solve the issue, switch rooms or anything So we loaded up and went downstairs to check out I asked Nicole if there was an issue with mold in the hotel and she then stated that she would send an engineer up to our room to inspect It was only after I mentioned mold, Nicole mentioned possibly finding a replacement room disregarding a person in our party was really sick Nicole mentioned that someone would be in touch? Please be mindful of some of these issues mentioned before booking here The hotel hallways are not clean, the carpet is in need of replacement and it smells bad As of this time, no resolve

Hannah Peters

I booked this hotel during the $30 deal and I definitely would not go at the normal prices When we arrived, it took about 30 minutes to get checked in We had to wait for the desk attendant to find a room

The room looked nice when we came in but we soon found there was no way to adjust the thermostat on the wall and the one under the window sill didn’t work well at all There were beads like from a kids necklace and sequins all over the carpet as well as a discarded sock It seemed like it hadn’t been vacuumed The beds were nice and comfyWe also had only three towels and no hand towels or washcloths in a room with two queen beds The soaps on the shower wall, one was missing a spout and was moldy insideWe went up to the pool which was fairly small and a guest was cleaning it out with the net because it was so dirty There were also no chairs! There was one lounge chair and two tables All of which were taken (some of which occupied by employees) There was plenty of space for more chairs there just weren’t any A kid ended up offering us his chair and some people who came after ended up just laying towels on the groundThe game room was fun but most of the games were broken or missing pieces If we had payed any more than we had, I would’ve been mad

We planned to celebrate with friends and decided to lodge here per a recommendation Our party of 6 (3 rooms) stayed three nights The valet team was kind, informative, and efficient

The checkin staff was thorough We had an issue with our room and the manager assisted us with a room change The rooms were clean, the penthouse level rooms offered spectacular views, and the hotel is quirky The lounge level bartender staff recognized us and greeted us, even when we were not stopping in for a drink Our only problem was that we were constantly being stopped and asked if we had reservations to access the rooftop Numerous individuals walked into the hotel, however; upon observation, we were the only group stopped when entering the side door or getting off the rooftop elevatorI recommend this hotel because it is a beautiful building In fact it’s the first fire containing/fire proof building in Richmond I hope that the staff’s keen awareness to minority groups was just a fluke

Tanisha Morgan

This hotel is adorable and perfectly named! So much pink it should be nauseating but it is not The decor is welcoming and refreshing and the rooms are nice Our king room was ready and clean when we arrived

The lobby bar has good hours There is a small gym on the lower levelValet parking only – $25 per night

Sarah JaQuay

It’s a quaint hotel It’s old school with some modern designs What I didn’t like about the hotel is that there are wood floors in the rooms as well as outside of the rooms and at night the noise from people walking in the halls sounded like they were walking inside of your room

The floor creaked and squeaked all night and it’s jarring to sleep thinking someone is walking in your room The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming I ordered food and wasn’t impressed at all It’s like when people try to do to much and ruin the entire meal It was just a salad that they ended up ruining It’s located in the perfect place A lot of restaurants surrounding that are in walking distance There is Valet parking The rooms are spacious Staff was very attentive The bed was comfortable

A newer hotel that opened during the pandemic still has a new feel Open parking, nice staff, clean and fresh Evening the stairwells are fresh and clean with soft carpet

One bedroom suite is a great choice, with plenty of room and is very comfy I wish the fridge had ice makers, especially because the ice maker on the 3rd floor was broken during my entire stay However, the appliances are full size The staff is very friendly Comfy bed, very nice fitness center with plenty of equipment for a hotel of this size, the towels are still newer and soft The breakfast is hit or miss Some days it’s eggs and sausage, other days they have wrapped breakfast sandwiches There are a few restaurants close by, both sit-down and fast food

A.K. Walker

I loved my experience here My room had everything I needed (Sink, stove, appliances) It made me feel at home

The coolest amenities I seen was the basketball court and stainless steel outdoor grillsMorning breakfast is always a plus They provided everything I needed and the food was flavorfulI liked the design and setup of my room so much, I had to record it This is a memory I surely want to remember Google should allow us to post videoMy only reason for rating the service 4 of 5 is because there was an extended time where the host was not at the deskI most certainly will book my next stay at the Residence Inn by MarriottI’d suggest you do too It’s worth it

Beverly Ochs

My husband and I stayed for a month, with our dog, while waiting to move into our new house Our suite with mini kitchen was perfect! Everything was cleaned on a regular basis The daily breakfast was wonderful

But, best of all was the staff! We only had two minor problems the whole time and they were rectified swiftly The staff was super friendly and kind

I used Hilton points to mostly pay for my stay, first time doing that This seems the best rated hotel in the area and it was packed I’d appreciate more parking, there was a big truck with trailer across 7+ spaces on Sat night and I had to circle the building twice before parking

Breakfast was good overall, I didn’t appreciate having to look at Fox News though! We liked the look of the pool but did not have a chance as our trip was to visit Kings Dominion and there was also a major storm during our visit Room was quiet, except some noise from the stairwell door I was pretty happy with the overall size of the 2Q Bed room and bathroom, very clean too

YPC LLC

The room is very humid It’s more obvious when I’m in bed and step on the mat with bare foot – feeling like the room was flooded beforeWhen I was opening the fridge, a cockroach ran out

It’s still somewhere in the roomThe coffee machine is missing the plate thus not functioningThere is no iron to use (nor closet); they advertised it in their room “clean stay” stickerThe accessibility bath tub seat is not properly installed The movable accessibility shower head is not working The plug/stopper is broken as wellThe dinning room staff kicked my service dog out (she was just sitting quietly under the table; I was sitting at the conner of the dinning area and no one else was in that area)My partner had to bring the food out of the dinning room and to talk to the front desk The front desk staff asked us if the service dog provide physical assistance We bring our service dog to many hotels but never received discrimination like thisOverall, the hostel staff could use some training on assisting people with disabilities and the hotel amenities could use some fixture to make sure it’s at least functioning Costumers didn’t pay this much to be treated badly in a hotel that their basic needs are not met

Adolphus Maples III

What an incredibly enjoyable wedding experience! Gillian Zehr was a DREAM to work with as well as the entire staff of the Historic Mankin Mansion As a wedding entertainment company we experience many venues with “day of” planning, but HMM is the real deal! From vendor to vendor, we appreciate you and encourage any wedding couple considering HMM to just book already!

Emily Bell

Getting married at Mankin Mansion was the best choice I made in the entire wedding planning process The space is beautiful, the planning team is incredible, and they made our day run so perfectlyWe picked Mankin because we wanted an all in one experience, to make our lives easier, and to make it easy for our guests, and they delivered

From the first meeting to our grand exit, as a bride, I knew the entire time that our special day was in great handsFirst of all, Mankin Mansion is simply beautiful The grounds are amazing, and beautiful year round And they fully customized our ceremony and reception in the gallery and tent to make it really come together And the BRIDAL SUITE is to die for Having a beautiful private space to get ready with my mom and bridesmaids made me feel like a queen Pictures do not do this venue justiceSecond, the planning team is unmatched Leah is outstanding She made it all come together perfectly She kept me on track with planning, coordinated between all of the vendors to make sure everyone knew just what to do, She made me feel like I was the only wedding she was planning the entire time! And on the day of the wedding, she seamlessly maintained the flow of the day She even bustled my dress for me outside in 20 degree weather I wish I had a Leah for real lifePlus, having the music team available through the venue was so great because it was just one less thing to worry about All the equipment is there, and they are fully involved in the ceremony and reception planning, so there was no hiccups or confusionThere just aren’t enough words to describe how happy I am with how perfect our wedding turned out and it is all thanks to the team at HMM They made sure every detail was handled and made it so that my husband and I were fully present with our friends and family on the happiest days of our livesI cannot say enough amazing things about the beautiful venue, but it’s really the team that makes Mankin so special They are MORE than impressive They are the ne plus ultra of the wedding industry They are like family to my husband and I I am so thankful for all that they did and the amazing memories I will get to cherish forever as a result of their hard work

The staff and property were amazing I stayed for one night and then came back a few days later to stay 3 nights and it was awesome Sarah was an awesome bartender who gave me great recommendations on where to go in the city

Mark was the nicest and most attentive valet there is Jessica was always checking in to see if I was in need of anything The rest of the staff that I did not catch their names were extremely warm and friendly Top notch service and amenities, will definitely be staying here again when I am back in town for business

Brenda Jackson

Awesome experience Staff was great at all levels but valet parking attendants were even greater Rooms are fantastic, large spacious and up to date

Excellent location and safe to walk and run Elevators are small but everything else makes up for it Not convenient to public transportation but only a short walk or drive to restaurants, quaint shops and the convention center Loved it

We had a wonderful time with our family Lovely rooms with lots of space to stretch out after a long day in the car We had a late lunch in the hotel restaurant and felt really safe in the large, well ventilated space

We had dinner in our room since it was a bit more crowded by then Though there are other places nearby to eat, the food in-house was excellent with several really good vegan options The staff was incredible, there was always someone to ask a question of, we requested extra linens and received them immediately The market by the front desk was also very convenient for last minute things When I went to load up the car before sunrise, there was security personnel in the lobby which made me feel safer about being outside alone in the dark Our only critique is that our room had a door to connect it to the adjacent room We heard some loud talking /laughing late at night It was very minor and it seems if you are close to the door your neighbor will hear you

Dr. Rosie Ann Riley

This is a must stay!! If I had more time I would have booked extra nights! The hotel is simply beautiful and the staff is super friendly I met and spoke with a manager (Mr Matt) , dishwasher (Mr

Tim) , clerk (Mr Phil) and server (Ms Brittney) all in 1 day and every last person was very kind and professionalI didn’t have opportunity to see pool or workout area but rest assured you will not be disappointed with your stay at this hotel It’s somewhat secluded BUT you are close to restaurants etcThey were having a wedding when I arrived As a titanium member I was able to go to club on 7th floor for cocktails ($5 each) and breakfast the next morningI highly recommend staying at this hotel!!! The photos online are an exact representation of what to expect!!!

Lamont Ross427

Did not rate the rooms because we have not stayed there But the 1st impression was wonderful, we went to see if we can see the place We are looking for a place to have our wedding reception, the Manager took time to show myself & wife the facility & he explained that he had his wedding there

Great 1st impression, so we are thinking about hosting our wedding reception there Really nice

The hotel shines like a jewel in the heart of Richmond I thought the opulence of the entryway, along with the small museum showcasing the history of the building were well worth the lookWe came in for tea which we reserved 4 months in advance for Valentine’s weekend

The tea was pleasant and the ambiance was particularly upscale Wait staff wear masks which was appreciated! We were told that wait staff isn’t allowed to take pictures, the hostess also declined No problem The dill and cucumber sandwich didn’t really feature any dill and was watery The spinach tomato wrap was dry and cakes were pretty basic The sandwiches with ham were afterthoughts, why not add a mustard on that? You nailed the chicken salad and the savory scones were fantastic We were told that everything is made in house which I can see, but the execution on the sandwiches needs work 3/5

M Phillips

The afternoon chocolate tea was amazing Plenty of food for two people and a great selection of tasty treats Our waiter was very attentive and answered all of our questions

I received a special treat for my birthday, which was a surprise The hotel is gorgeous and they have lots of antiques and memorabilia that you can see Everyone was very friendly

Ric Rini

Review is only for a site seeing visit This historic hotel is definitely worth the visit The interior is just magnificent and reminiscent of that old style historic feel

The center piece when you enter is the grand staircase It does not disappoint Take some time and stroll the main lobby area and alcovesThey also have a nice restaurant (“Lamaire”) for lunch, dinner or just drinks/cocktails

I asked about breakfast and she said it wasn’t complimentary, you had to pay to order One of my favorite things about going to a hotel, is the free breakfast before starting my day Te hotel is in a great location

We checked in and walked next door to have dinner at Red Robin There was also a dollar tree next door We walked to the movie theater just to get a tub of popcorn and return to hotel for movie night The kids enjoyed the pool and the jacuzzi There were shampoo and conditioner in the shower which was a plus I would stay here again

Randy Pruett

I dont give 5 star reviews They must be earned This Courtyard by Marriott earned it

Every member of the staff that we interacted with was professional, friendly and very courteousThe room was very clean The bathroom was clean The bed was clean and very comfortable so that I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud and woke very well restedThe rates were very affordable Check in and check out was easy The young lady that checked us in went out of her way to be helpful but I failed to get her nameI highly recommend this Courtyard to all travelers

LetsGoBrandon

Hotel is outdated Rooms are old Wallpaper peeling off the walls

Rusty sprinkler head falling off the ceiling No hot water in the shower I told the GM about it Nice guy, but he seemed to be surprised It’s interesting to see that other people posted about the same issue though This hotel is not up to the typical Marriott standards in my opinion I’ll stay somewhere else next time

Ellen Etheridge

I was impressed with how clean the entire property was From the lobby and bar area, to the hallways, and especially my room – it all was very clean The modern decor was really nice too

The front desk staff was working so hard to manage multiple guest requests and needs at once, and they kept their cool and professionalism despite the challenges They both were friendly and helpful What a nice touch to offer the lemonade to guests, and I appreciated the comfortable loungers in the business area where I could relax and watch TV while my daughter took a nap in our room We chose this hotel since it offers 24 hr airport shuttle service, and the driver went above and beyond to help us very early on our departure morning He was really great, just like all of the employees we met I enjoyed my short stay at this property and will definitely return if I’m in Richmond again!

Tundey Akinsanya

This isn’t really a Marriott Rooms were clean but dated Beds were supposed to be queen but they look like full size at best

Complimentary breakfast was very awful A bunch of chairs and tables in a tiny room and not a lot of selections I’ve had better stays in a Holiday InnWas in the area for the 2022 Jefferson Cup; didn’t really have much choice in team hotels Would not stay here again

Laura Heims

Each staff member was super helpful and friendly Not many options for breakfast, but Starbucks coffee is always a win I had a 4 day stay so I booked a King Suite, it would have been nice to know the room they chose for me shared a wall with the elevator room on the first floor

The generator went off every 10 minutes when you were trying to sleep This is not very conducive when you have early morning meetings , and given the price of the room they could have done better with the placement of this King Suite

Shelby Fincham

An overall great experience! Everyone was so friendly and service was great When I arrived in the room my mini cooler wasn’t working, I called the front desk and a maintenance man arrived within 10 minutes with a new one Check in and out was easy

The room was clean and beautiful, Starbucks in the lobby Valet was amazing as well Thanks for a great stay, if I need to stay in Richmond again, this is where I’ll be!

Angie Dotson

The common areas of the Omni Richmond are lush and peaceful The room was comfortable and clean We were on the side of the hotel overlooking the highway and enjoyed the view of the river, the trains, and the area surrounding the city

It was nice during the day and stunning at night The location is great Be aware that the parking deck is not associated with the hotel itself, so if you self park is is essentially at least $25 per day vs $30 per day plus tax and tips to valet park If you want to go out expect to pay about $5 per exit in addition to the $25 you’ll pay overnightIf we are back in Richmond, this will be the place we went to stay

Natalia Mesfien

My father stayed here for 7 months on business in my teens and I stayed with him for long periods of time so got to know the workers They are amazing, terrific, perfect especially Stewart he is amazing the best of the best The setup great valet expensive but they are very nice

I’m staying here now again with friends and insisted to come here and so glad I did The restaurant, Starbucks is great and if you are nice at check in they give tickets for free drinks at Starbucks or at the bar It’s a nice location to walk or drive around The restaurant is great and there is a amazing chef and very nice aesthetic There is a Wells Fargo bank across from that Next to the restaurant there’s a store that sells smoothies and açaí bowls All of that it’s amazing love it second home There is also great gym pool etc

A solid 45 stars Pros: the shower is absolutely amazing!! A rain shower waterhead with tremendous water pressure

The rooms have extra large windows for a great view The beds are super comfy and the pillows are like sleeping on a cloud Very clean hotel with complimentary shuttle and complimentary bottles water (total thumbs up on that) The true jewel at this hotel is the friendly and helpful staffCons: The a/c in my room did not work well, the bartender closed early one night and would not even allow me to get a couple of bottles of beer to go because he already settled his books for the night and parking is an additional feeOverall it was a very pleasant stay and I would highly recommend this hotel

Tracey Greene

I went here for a tax lien conference that they were having The hotel staff was exceptional When I asked for directions to where this conference was being held everyone was exceptionally friendly, and the attire of the staff very clean cut

I was very impressed with the hospitality that they showed me I had issues with the parking ticket I don’t go to hotels like this often so I ended up placing the ticket in the machine when I was supposed to just take the other ticket they gave me and scan it at the gate but anyway the young lady took care of everything and straightened it out for me I thank you for the great experience that you provided I just want to say each and every person that was at the desk was phenomenal And the doorman I really like him Very friendly individual Thank you all for the great experience maybe next time I can get a room and just kick back and relax

Gregory Clarke Money Mindset Academy

It has been a fine experience staying here for a couple of days during our running around Richmond The room is comfortable without feeling cramped The amenities offered are in line with some of the other brands with the Marriott family and the parking has been an added value to the stay

If you are a business traveler especially if you are doing business in the Downtown area of Richmond then the Delta Hotel should be an option for you
