Top VCU Hotel Reviews

Graduate by Hilton Richmond

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the Graduate. The rooms were so cute, comfortable, and clean. All of the staff from the front desk to valet were friendly and helpful. Overall, really upbeat vibes. We loved the gaming area in the lobby- it was a great way to spend time after returning to the hotel for the evening. Will definitely plan to stay here again the next time we visit Richmond."

The Jefferson Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Jefferson Hotel is one of a vanishing breed of grand historic hotels that still provide the kind of hotel experience that was already becoming rare 50 years ago. The staff are friendly and attentive, the rooms are extremely well appointed, the public spaces of the hotel are spectacular, and the restaurant is one of the best in Richmond. The hotel's only real drawback isn't its fault: the area of downtown Richmond that the Jefferson used to anchor has seriously deteriorated. Even though an effort was clearly made to try to revive Broad Street near the hotel, it's still pretty sketchy. As a result, there isn't really much of interest close to the hotel other than VCU and the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art. That means that going out from the hotel -- to find other restaurants, see the sights, or hit the usual tourist destinations -- pretty much requires a car."

The Commonwealth

8/10 Good

"The Commonwealth is our "go to" hotel when we stay in Richmond, Virginia, primarily because the rooms are huge and a great value, and the staff is friendly, helpful and determined. I do have to mention, though, that I would hope the hotel would hire more staff members. It appears that the staff on hand are expected to serve many roles, which causes the service to lag. For instance, when we checked in this last time, there was no one at the reception desk and the housekeeping supervisor partially checked us in after a long wait. I've also noticed the last couple times that we stayed that the restaurant is often lacking advertised entries or beverages. It would be great if that area was well stocked with food items, beverage choices and enough inventory to serve all guests. Still will stay at The Commonwealth though."
