Top Charlottesville Hotel Reviews

English Inn of Charlottesville

10/10 Excellent

"I found the English Inn to be a little gem-like place to stay after finding the Hilton and such groups rather expensive and below par on service. This place was economical, clean as a whistle, quiet at night and the coffee was really good. If we ever head back, that will be my go-to place."

Omni Charlottesville Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Omni is fantastic. Its iconic bar, the best place to spend time--and that arboretum is real. The staff is helpful and the hotel is super clean. Would certainly visit and stay at the Omni. And the mall is a step out of the hotel from the bar side. Access to many coffee shops. Walkable and nice."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Charlottesville

10/10 Excellent

"In all honesty, the room seemed a little dusty, but it was quite well equipped. A vanity area just outside the bathroom had its own sink, which was convenient for us as a couple trying to get thru our morning ablutions & get out to tour about. The pool and the tiled outside seating area were rather elaborate, although (not being aa fan of chlorinated water) we did not avail ourselves of it. Parking was just a little distant, due to tenant volume, but the area seemed very quiet & safe, & ample room was available for loading & unloading at the front door. Minutes away from downtown Charlottesvilles."
