We stayed here for one night pre cruise this past weekend and had a great stay! This was one of the few, if not the only, hotels in the area that offered a park and cruise package, allowing you to park at the hotel for the duration of your cruise and also provided a shuttle to and from the port,...

My wife and I recently stay for a nice weekend getaway; was a little skeptical at first after reading the reviews prior to checking in. The hotel and staff were GREAT! The staff was very delightful and helpful throughout the two night stay; the rooms were comfortable with the sleep number bed being the biggest hit. The internet was fast... More

I checked in and when to room 707. I unpacked and turned AC on. After an hour, the AC never cooled the room down. I called the front desk and they sent a maintenance guy up and he said as he was walking across the room to the AC that the compressor was not working. The guy called down on... More

We recently stayed at the Norfolk Plaza Hotel for 3 nights -- we made a "blind" discount reservation on Expedia and ended up there. We paid about $90/night, and had an average experience. On the positive side, the location is good: It's within walking distance from downtown, and parking is a not-bad $7/night. The staff could not have been more... More

The location is great; within walking distance of many great restaurants and entertainment venues. There's a newer shopping mall nearby, and an Enterprise car rental place next door. Plenty of parking and friendly staff. The decor is a bit bold in the public spaces, but the rooms are more subtle. One big plus is that the hotel is structurally better... More

this hotel is very unique... love the environment when you walk into the lobby... the staff (housekeepers & maintenance) are fantastic... they are very friendly and always go out of their way to talk to you and make you comfortable. The restaurant downstairs Black Tuna Grill has good food but not many options at all... and they are quite pricey.... More

I thought since the hotel was recently (2 yrs ago) purchase from a non-chain hotel line that it would be different, perhaps unique. Not so much. Its was very average, but the price was too, so thats okay. Two main complaints ... the AC cannot really be controlled. Temp can be, but not the fan. Also there was no mini-fridge,... More

Not the best experience. Lobby was freezing, bathtub had ciagarette burns, rooms were generally spacious. Staff was actually friendly. Toilet ran all night. Biggest complaint....getting stuck in an elevator for about 20-22 minutes. They have no emergency plan. Asked the manager to get back to me with some type of explaination and 3 days later, no phone call. My wife... More

Found staff to be very helpful indeed. Rooms are fine and spacious. One downside is the lack of a laundry, which we do require as we are travelling around. The decor is ok, a bit dark in places. Would recommend this hotel.
