"Great location, friendly staff, and very peaceful!"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Wilmington Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here for a work trip. Loved the staff and the amenities. The room was wonderful and clean! Will definately be back!"

Hampton Inn Wilmington-Medical Park

"Everything was great....."

Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay the the Hotel Ballast Wilmington. We were in town for a One Tree Hill convention and this was the most convenient hotel we could have chose. The first day was a little hectic. I checked- in through the app, and my key was still not ready when we arrived. When we got to the hotel, I waited in a long line while ONE poor girl ran the front desk. Where was her help when all these people were checking in? We also didn't have room service for one day, but other than that great hospitality. We were able to walk to the convention center on the riverwalk. Super close to restaurants too. Our room we selected was the river view and it was gorgeous! There was some normal wear and tear in the hotel, a few things that could be updated. Our toilet roll dispenser was falling off the wall, and the toilet ran randomly. We used the gym on site and were able to get a great workout in. We had dinner at Sugo Italian Steakhouse and it was so delicious!! I definitely will be staying here again."

Farmhouse 3 bedroom downtown by River Walk No cleaning fee

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and a very good value for the price. We had plenty of space to spread out, and the property made it very easy to enjoy the downtown area and the Riverwalk. Being able to stay so close also saved us quite a bit on parking and made getting around much more convenient.The kitchen was well equipped with coffee, cookware, and pretty much everything you would need if you wanted to prepare meals during your stay.The main area I would recommend improving is the overall cleanliness. There was quite a bit of dust, and we noticed a black, soot-like residue on the floors that ended up on our daughter’s hands and feet while she was crawling. A more thorough cleaning of the floors would make a big difference. I would also suggest upgrading the pillows, as they felt a little on the inexpensive side.Overall, though, we had a great stay and felt the property was a very good value. The location was excellent, the space worked well for our family, and we would recommend it to others."
