We've stayed here on several occasions and have never been disappointed. Very comfortable, spacious, and well appointed rooms - comfortable bed and pillows, great breakfast in the morning, convenient location, very helpful and courteous staff. Allowed us to check in early. If they could improve one thing it would be the quality of the coffee in the room - very... More

Just spent a few nights in this hotel 2 weeks ago. What a lovely change to stay in a quiet hotel (instead of people slamming doors all night in the many hotels I've stayed in around the world). The complimentary breakfast was good,fair enough continental but it was good quality and hot and included in the room rate,very rare for... More

This hotel is a great bargain for he price. Directly downtown is hard to find for under a hundred bucks in a weekend and this place clocked in at 90 bucks on a Friday night. Super comfy beds. And I got the corner room on the top floor so great view of downtown put of windows facing two directions. I... More

Thank you for taking time to share your visit with us from late March. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. The corner rooms with the 3 windows do offer some great views of the city. Parking in Downtown Richmond is a premium. All hotels in the area do have a parking fee to ensure our guests... More

The hotel has been recently renovated, new bedding, furniture, chairs, television, new plumbing fixtures etc. The rooms are all very nice. The staff was cordial and friendly. The problems are from the amenities that are offered or should I say not offered. First, the Holiday Inn Express website says there is a complementary shuttle within 2 miles of the hotel.... More

It's not great. It's not bad. I would have given 3.5 stars had that been an option. It's within walking distance of all the downtown attractions. Stayed here for a night because I went to a concert at the National. I was upgraded to a suite based on my PC status. If you're apprehensive about questionable urban environments, I would... More

I was expecting the usual - a good HI Express. Not so, it was better. Arrived in the early evening to be welcomed by a very nice young lady. She quickly got us registered and on our way to our room. We opened our door and were delighted to find we had been upgraded to a two room, Double Suite.... More

Spend one while in town visiting some local tourist attractions. Staff was helpful. Shower curtain was broken. It was reported to staff on the way out and I hope it got fixed. I thought the hotel was in a good location and a short walk (10 to 15 minutes) to several sites. Parking is very tight below the hotel. I... More

Stayed at this property on a Sunday night. Room was large and everything worked. Actually thrilled that the shower head was something like 6 feet 4 inches high... I'm 6 feet and I hate having to hunch under a low shower head to get my hair wet, so this, and the good water pressure, made this one of the better... More

Thank you for taking time to share your comments. The area around the hotel is businesses and financial buildings, so Sunday nights, the area is very quiet. As always we encourage our guest to use caution as in any center city location. I appreciate the recommendation on the cafe, I have never tried before and will now be able to... More

We enjoyed our stay at the Holiday Inn Express. It is a clean property, recently renovated. Front desk service was good. Breakfast was very good. It is located within walking distance (half mile) of good eating downtown and museums and historic sites. The price was good for a decent downtown property. We would recommend.

I knew that I would be getting to town before checkin, so I called ahead of time to see if it was possible to checkin around 11. They said that was unlikely, as they were full the night before and checkout isn't until 11. They did tell me, however, that it would be possible to make a note on my... More
