Top Walter S Carpenter State Park Hotel Reviews

Hilton Wilmington/Christiana

8/10 Good

"The hotel is conveniently located near shopping and dining—minutes. The staff is very helpful. The facility is very clean."

Fairfield Inn by Marriott Kennett Square Brandywine Valley

10/10 Excellent

"This Fairfield Marriott was one of the best hotels we have stayed in. The Heating/AC did not make terrible noises; the shower was hot and had protective curtains; and the hotel was not near a highway so that it was very quiet. The only suggestion we have is to offer choices of bread at the breakfast."

Sonesta Select Newark Christiana Mall

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very clean & comfortable."

Homewood Suites by Hilton Newark-Wilmington South Area

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for parent weekend. Property is right across the street from stadium so very convenient. Plenty of parking and check in was easy. Our room had a living room with kitchen which was helpful. Beds were very comfortable."

Ramada by Wyndham Newark/Wilmington

8/10 Good

"Good alignment between price and quality. Staff was fantastic. The breakfast is not good. The rooms are dated (but very clean, quiet, and comfortable!)... and the pricing reflects that, so I would still rate this hotel quite highly and would stay here again."

Red Roof Inn & Suites Newark - University

8/10 Good

"Over all a good place to spend the night."
