Holiday Inn Express Richmond I-64 Short Pump Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very kind & accomodating."

Linden Row Inn

8/10 Good

"I enjoyed my stay at this very well located inn - very cozy venue with a serene courtyard area and cute rooms. My room was on the ground floor of a small rowhouse style building. The room was clean and had a fridge and microwave which was a pleasant surprise. The tv had some issues but the front desk was quick to send someone to help. My one frustration was the noise from above, the sound insulation was not too good so the foot steps and things moving around above did disrupt things for me as Im a light sleeper. There was no other noise from outside at all as I faced a quiet courtyard. The bathroom was decent, some signs of wear and tear on things. I thought this place was a great value and historic in style and preservation. I would stay again but on the second floor."

Drury Plaza Hotel Richmond

10/10 Excellent

"Well worth the money. I was especially surprised by the kickback add-on (dinner with drinks). I had the king suite, which included a soaking tub (why I spent the extra, really and just to have a bit of walking space). The king suite has a separate living area with a pullout sofa and another TV, so if you have a group, it’s the way to go. But if you are a rowdy lot, I would mind you the walls are thin, as I realized when I was about to go to sleep as I prefer dead silence unless I’m in the mood for a podcast. I was expecting one of those tiny bottles of lotion when I suddenly realized I didn’t have any, maybe they had some at the desk, but I’d say that was my only real complaint vs what I’m used to seeing at most hotels. I wish I had bothered to check out the pool and jacuzzi, but I plan to come back on my next staycation, so next time. I did like the dispensers in the shower. Convenient, and smelled good. Staff was very nice, definitely among the better I’ve encountered. Kudos to them. The food quality was just decent if I’m honest, but it got the job done. Enough variety that most palettes will find something to fill the belly, so that’s how they strike the balance. Lots of dining area. Everything was clean and well kept, I do with they had smart TVs, but I brought my fire stick, as travelers know to do. Problem solved. Just would be nice from a modernization standpoint."

Graduate by Hilton Richmond

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was decently maintained. There was some dust on my headboard and a wet spot near the refrigerator but other than that the room was comfortable. The rooftop bar was a blast, food decent enough after a long day of driving. All of the staff was super friendly, elevators were fast, valet was fast and organized. I'd stay again for a quick trip."
