Front desk staff was the friendliest and most helpful I have ever experienced. They made me feel very special.
I can't think of anything I can write here.

Friendly, classy, luxurious, welcoming with elegance today and from days gone by.

Beautiful historic architecture.
It hosts large events that can be noisy.

The bathroom light switch didn't work. The final bill was not placed under the door to facilitate expedited check out. The neighborhood leaves much to be desired (but that's Richmond - its downtown is still struggling to recover). The gym is top-notch. Monitored parking is $12.00 (nearby street parking was easy to find). Breakfast is not included.

A great historic hotel and a must stay for all travelers.
Everything was great.

This is a great romantic place for any who want to get away with their significant other. Great history for the buffs who like Thomas Jefferson and the scenery of Richmond.

Christmas decorations, friendliness of staff.
No vending machines, gift shop closed at 4 p.m.

Beautiful hotel, very comfortable rooms. Dining rooms were wonderful, and everyone on the staff was particularly friendly and helpful. They always remembered your name, and spoke to you every time they say you. The shuttle to Downtown was very helpful. Hope to stay there again.

Lobby & mezzanine are beautiful.
Food & food service was not good.

This hotel is rated as the "only 5 star" within the region. I have no idea what makes it a 5 star. Yes, it's grand & historic; however, the rooms are nothing special, food was awful, & they were understaffed. Pretty place to stop in & see or have tea; however, I would never stay there again. The Omni is a 4 star, nicer, & half the price.
