  • Great location for price.
  • Valet parking expensive.

“This hotel was clean, the staff was helpful, and parking was not a problem. Plenty of spaces on the street. The bathroom was small but clean.”

  • The room was nice and the location was excellent!
  • Some of the staff were rude, some had their friends hanging out late at night in the lobby, very off-putting.

“The hotel was in a great location, right next to VCU and the fan area. The room was clean and the bed was amazing. Some of the staff were a little unprofessional and rude, although there were exceptions. The worst thing about the hotel is you have to valet park your car for $16 a day. Ridiculous!”

“The hotel is in a nice neighborhood. There are VCU college/graduate housing facilities nearby and this presents opportunities for singles to meet and mingle in the neighborhood. Nice old architecture in the surrounding buildings makes strolling around pleasant.”

  • Staff was very helpful - shuttle bus was a godsend!
  • Parking was non-existent!

“Stayed here to attend a concert at the coliseum, the neighborhood wasn't the best, but the hotel provided a shuttle bus that was very accommodating. Rooms and lobby were clean and staff was friendly. It is more than adequate for an overnight stay.”

  • Spacious room, contemporary decor, comfortable beds.
  • Tiny bathroom, valet parking.

“The hotel and room exceeded my expectations. Hotel staff friendly, and the room was quite spacious although the bathroom very cramped. I liked the Neutrogena products provided. Hotel only has valet parking, but street parking is available at no cost. I was able to get a spot close to the hotel at midnight.”

  • The room had free Wi-Fi.
  • The bathroom was too small for a family, the outdoor pool was unheated and not impressive, and I had to pay for valet parking.

“The room was clean but small, especially the bathroom. I did like the free Wi-Fi access. The staff was friendly and helpful. The pool on the roof was small and unheated. I did not enjoy it. The worst was having to pay for valet parking. The only other choice was to park out on the street.”

  • The hotel has been renovated and was gorgeous. The staff was extremely friendly.
  • Parking is an issue in the area.

“The Doubletree is a great hotel! The staff treats you with respect and care. The restaurant staff was outstanding. There was a little problem with parking because someone did not show up for work, but I am sure this is not the norm. It was taking quite a while to get your car from valet parking. There is limited street parking so we had to valet. All in all it was a really wonderful stay. This was our second time staying there and we would stay again!”

  • Room was very attractive.
  • Valet parking was only parking option and it was way too expensive and way too slow.

“The location is indeed downtown but in an area that did not feel all that safe. The lobby is well kept but small and crowded when we were there. The rooms are very pretty though a little on the small side. The cost of valet parking (one's only option) was way too expensive and the process was very slow and frustrating.”

  • The room quality set the tone for an enjoyable 2 days.
  • Parking was not convenient, with the exception of valet, but even then was bothersome.

“The hotel was more than I expected. The room was exceptional and the staff was great. I would definitely stay there again.”

  • The staff was very friendly and quite helpful.
  • The building is very old and the remodeling should be continued.

“As a female business traveler, I can say that while this hotel is not in the safest area. The staff is quite helpful in ensuring that you feel well taken care of. The shuttle even took me on a late night McDonalds's run since I was alone. The room was nice with a decent view of Richmond and VCU. I would stay again, if not for the quaint and clean room, than for the staff that was top notch!”

  • Good location, not bad.
  • Hotel pool and observation deck was closed an hour early.

“Staff was courteous and professional, $16 valet parking is not necessary if you drive a square on the one way streets and park on Madison street next to the building.”

  • Great location near VCU and very safe area of town!
  • Parking was expensive but there was plenty of street parking available for free.

“This hotel was located in a safe area of downtown near the VCU campus. The room was quiet, clean, and a very comfy bed! The staff was very nice and was also very patient/friendly with my 2 year old. My wife and I travel a lot in the summer as we are teachers and this hotel was a great place to stay in Richmond!”

  • Staff, location.

“This hotel is the worst place I have ever stayed in. The hotel is very dated and in a terrible location. First parking was fifteen dollars, then we got to the room only to have no towels. We were attending a concert about seven blocks away and no one told us that the hotel was in the middle of the ghetto. We walked there at dusk but had to take a cab back for safety reasons. Car alarms went off all night and you could hear all the outside noise because of the surrounding buildings being tall, the sounds echoed up to the tenth floor where we were. Room service was very slow and the buffet in the morning was out of most things besides fruit and bagels. None of the staff in the dining room knew what they were doing, getting a beverage, other than coffee or juice, required talking to three different people. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone, you can get a much nicer room, in a much better location, for the same price.”
