Top Wilmington Railroad Museum Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton Wilmington Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time at the Embassy- Wilmington. Great location and amenities. Room was nice and spacious. Would definitely recommend!"

ARRIVE Wilmington

10/10 Excellent

"Nicely decorated hotel with several buildings and courtyard. Loved the outside area with the fireplaces and firepits. Did not get to go to the bar/restaurant but it's great that is available. Hotel is within walking distance to riverfront and shops, restaurants and view of the battleship. Parking is across the street, so it may be difficult to transport luggage from there. Room was spacious and clean. I would stay here again."

Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The rooms were rather small but they were very clean. The staff at the front desk was very helpful. The toilet ran all night long which I had to tell them about in the morning and we had to have maintenance come upstairs to unstop the sink. Also the heat did not work at all."

Battleship Sunset on Water Street! River View! Free parking!!

10/10 Excellent

"Loved that parking was included and convenient. The location was perfect for watching the sunsets and walking to stores and restaurants. The unit had everything we could need but with the food options around, we ate out rather than cook. Found great shops for records and books! Very relaxing!"

Catalina Crib~ Experience Downtown Wilmington Nightlife, Walk to Concerts

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, comfy bed and wonderful little amenities! Had a cute snack basket, along with bathroom extras (hair ties, cotton swabs and q-tips) that were a great touch! It’s close enough to downtown that everything is easily walkable but not so close it’s too loud. Host was very easy to communicate with and so helpful when needed!"
