This is our Luxury pick for Richmond, Virginia. It fits people who want to walk out the door and be in the centre: a short city break, a weekend with a partner, or a work trip with meetings downtown. The property lists family rooms, so families can look at it too.
Skip it if your budget is tight or you hate surprise costs. The most repeated complaint in guest feedback is high daily fees for parking and internet, and those fees are said to drag down the overall rating. If you plan to drive in and park every day, add that cost before you compare.
Location and getting around
The address is 100 South 12th St. Guests describe it as a central downtown spot near the river, walkable to shops and restaurants. The location score of 9.1 backs that up.
The closest sight in our data is the Statue of George Washington (Houdon), about 0.3 km away, roughly 4 minutes on foot. The Cathedral of the Sacred Heart sits around 2 km away, about 25 minutes walking. The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts is 4.2 km off, close to 53 minutes on foot, so that one is far and you will want public transport or a taxi.
These walking times are straight-line estimates and have not been checked on the ground. Real routes can be longer.
What guests say
Across 627 reviews the score is 8.5 out of 10. Two themes stand out on the positive side. First, the location, for the reasons above. Second, the staff, described as friendly and professional, with a warm and helpful welcome.
On the negative side, guests point to pricing. Daily charges for parking and internet come up as the main frustration. Nothing in our data covers room size, noise levels or how recently rooms were updated, so treat those as open questions.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
For a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, the reference price was about €166.63 per night, around €333 for both nights. That is a little above the sample median of €158.89 per night. These are reference prices, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Budget pick, Tru By Hilton Richmond Northwest, came in at about €107.44 per night with the same 8.5 score and 3 stars. Our Best Value pick, Home2 Suites By Hilton Richmond Glenside, was about €134.69 per night with a higher 9.0 score, also 3 stars.
So the extra money here buys the fourth star, a downtown address and the listed facilities: a restaurant, a fitness centre and a swimming pool. It does not buy a better guest score. Breakfast is listed as American style, but whether it is included in your rate is not confirmed.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 10 eligible hotels in Richmond. For the Luxury slot we look for five stars first, and a four-star hotel only qualifies if it scores at least 8.5. This one meets that bar, and it shares third place on guest score within the sample.
Its strongest card is location. A 9.1 location score plus guest comments about walking to shops and restaurants made it the clearest upscale option in the group.
Before you book
Ask about the daily parking and internet charges and get the amounts in writing. Check whether breakfast is part of your rate. Confirm pool and gym opening times for your dates, plus any fees.
Read the cancellation terms carefully, since we have not assessed them. If you are bringing a pet, check the rules and any charge. Room size and noise have not been assessed either, so request a quiet room if that matters to you.
