Top Riverfront Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Wilmington

8/10 Good

"Upon check-in we were welcomed by Corey who was professional and courteous. There was an issue with the main corridor was extremely hot as if no ac was on. I came down to the front desk and a manager who I believe was Mr. Brown took care of it immediately. Upon checking out the woman at the front desk (don’t recall her name) was also very nice, professional and eager to assist. All staff was professional and courteous except the woman bartender who had more interest with her phone than she did with assisting customers. I waited and watched her and a man discuss something about her phone for over 15 mins while I waited to order a drink. When she finally did approach me, she was not friendly and showed no customer service. Room was fine, bed was comfortable, but attention to details in the bathroom are needed. Wallpaper peeling and nicks on the wall under the left side of the sink and can be seen while using the toilet. Due to hotel being so busy and noisy due to a catered event (wedding I think) and main door didn’t work. Overall hotel condition is 3, but all of the staff (except bartender) is a 5 which brought the rating up to a 4."
