Top Virginia State University Hotel Reviews

Graduate by Hilton Richmond

10/10 Excellent

"I loved every single detail about this Graduate. A female valet parked my car, FTW. The front desk had a personal sign that told me about the human working there, the bartender shared clever life details. From the wallpaper, to the carpet and the heavy ticking striped curtains, the space felt light, witty and welcoming. Now - how do I get one of those "Pets in Room" pennants? Thank you Richmond - a most brief but delightful stay."
