The Berkeley Hotel [Richmond, VA]- Hotel Reviews

The Berkeley Hotel's uncompromising service and elegant surroundings capture the essence of the tradition of our namesakes, England's Berkeley Castle and Virginia's Berkeley Plantation. The Berkeley Hotel stands at the crossroads of Richmond's business district and Historic Shockoe Slip. The Berkeley Hotel's ambiance exudes serenity and warmth. Dark wood paneling in the boutique lobby and its adjacent Dining Room boasts a European flair where dramatic windows push to the ceiling, offering diners a view of the Slip's cobblestone and lamplights. Fifty-five elegantly appointed guest rooms display stylish decor and traditional furnishings from which scenes of revitalized Shockoe Slip may be enjoyed with its beautifully restored tobacco warehouses put to use as stylish new condominiums, restaurants and boutiques. The Berkeley hotel offers uncompromising AAA Four Diamond service including complimentary morning newspaper, health club privileges at the Capital Club, cable television, in-room coffee makers, nightly turndown service, in-room dining, and same day laundry and dry-cleaning services. The Berkeley Hotel itself is reminiscent of that time, more than one hundred years ago, when Shockoe Slip was the center of commerce and politics. The hotel's appointments, the graciousness of its classic restaurant and the tasteful furnishings of its guest rooms take you back to an era when inn-keeping was an art.

Clean, classy, and was comfortable.
Door handle in bathroom was silver, every other fixture was brass.

“Amazing brunch! Coffee was like drinking silk. Comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a fantastic location.”

It was the best location for downtown Richmond.

“This is a great hotel. The staff is very friendly every time we called. We could not smell smoke at all, and our friends with us didn't even know it was a smoking room. We loved this hotel and hope to stay here again sometime.”

Convenient location in downtown.
Water was cut off on last night so you could not shower or use bathroom. Parking is a pain.

“Water was cut off on last night so in morning could not shower or use bathroom. Staff was not empowered to do anything. They said Manager would call to discuss and after almost a week have not heard one word.”
