We were here for the graduation of University of Virginia. Location is easy to go anywhere around UVA. It was good to enjoy foods around hotel such as Bodos Bagel and Indian cuisine, Milan. Hotel is generally clean and nice. More

The Holiday Inn in Charlottesville is about what you expect if you have stayed at Holiday Inn before. Everything is reasonably clean, the finishes have been updated within the last 5 years or so I would guess, the service is fine. The location is off of a major street near the University, but not really walking distance to anything other... More

My husband and I stayed here while visiting our son. I was a little nervous based on some of the previous reviews, but our room was excellent - large, clean and perfectly comfortable. The hotel front desk staff were very friendly and helpful and the complimentary breakfast was good. The server was excellent. We had an enjoyable stay and will... More

The front desk was wonderful. They were full of energy and were happy that I had arrived. They couldn't have been better. The rooms were nice and big and comfortable but the beds were old and hard to sleep in. I normally fall right to sleep and in this bed it took me a long time to get comfortable. The... More

Everything in this hotel is as close to perfect as it gets. From the moment I walked in the staff was friendly and helpful which made for a quick and easy check in. When I got into my room (602) I was pleasantly suprised to see that it was totally remodeled. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. New drapes... More

From reading the mixed reviews, I assume the hotel is in the process of renovating. I am a Club member and was on the 7th floor. The room was very spacious, with a desk to work on and a small corner table with 2 chairs. Furniture, carpeting and window dressings look new. Free wireless access, a large flat screen TV.... More

I have been staying at this property for many years. The recent renovation is an extra perk for me, I mainly stay because of the staff. They always greet me by name and make me feel like a home away from home. More

Stayed here to go visit UVA with my daughter. On plus was it was close to the college....otherwise, look elsewhere. First, I think the mattresses were older than the building itself. It felt like you were sleeping on the springs. The rooms were old and outdated. The TV looked like it was a yardsale throwaway and sounded like it too.... More

The hotel decor was attractive with a welcoming real fire in the lobby on a cold evening. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious with a choice of firm or soft pillows though they were on the small side. We found everything to be very clean and well kept. Even though our room was on the... More
