Top Martin Luther King Hotel Reviews

Hilton Norfolk The Main

10/10 Excellent

"One stop shop for food, multiple restaurants on site. Great boutique wine shop next door and close to great entertainment, restaurants and bars."

Courtyard by Marriott Norfolk Downtown

8/10 Good

"Glad they got the elevator fixed. Nice people but limited breakfast and dinner options. Also, not good that they don't use cash, only credit cards or charge it to the room."

Residence Inn Norfolk Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very welcoming. Property well maintained."

Modern Portsmouth Apartment: Walk to Norfolk Ferry

8/10 Good

"The place was in a lovely location, close to Old Towne Portsmouth, the river walk, the ferry landing to Norfolk. Easy to walk everywhere. The apartment is old but well maintained. It was quiet and the air conditioning was fantastic."

Historic private guest apartment

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay while visiting our daughter was perfect. The apartment is absolutely gorgeous and centrally located to where we needed to be. I love that there was a washer and dryer so when we got home it was easy to just unpack. Hosts were informative and responded quickly. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you so much."

Spacious 5-bedroom house with AC in beautiful Portsmouth

8/10 Good

"The house is beautiful and tastefully decorated, and we greatly appreciate the opportunity to vacation here, but the house was not clean, the floors were filthy, leaving our socks and feet black if we went without shoes.We did clean all the floors, several times while there, because it took several cleanings before our socks and feet did not turn black, and before we checked out. The trash cans, one large and one small were overflowing when we arrived.The owners did send people out to pick up trash, although it took a couple of days. I would suggest providing more trash receptacles, especially, since there is a raccoon that frequents the house. There are a few things that need to be fixed if this host is to successfully house 18 people. There is not enough hot water, there is not enough water pressure either. The upstairs shower is very tiny, I would suggest a removable shower head as it is extremely difficult to rinse off in that small of a space. The refrigerator is tiny, RV size and not nearly enough room for food and drinks for several people. We used two large coolers in addition to the refrigerator. The dishwasher is not secured and does not get the dishes clean, we opted to hand wash the dishes The kitchen breaker blows if you use the toaster and one other outlet. The amount of beds do not accommodate 18 people either, thankfully we brought a queen size and full size mattress with us. The mattresses were not the most comfortable either, per all the guests."

Loft in downtown Norfolk, restaurants/entertainment at your door step

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay! The location was in the middle of everything and we walked practically all of Norfolk! Communication was stellar and even with minor hiccups in our stay, the Owner was on top of it. The CLEANEST countertops ever. Would definitely stay again!"
