"Unbeatable location!"

10.0

This is the perfect Hilton for exploring Richmond. The rooms are thoughtfully decorated and very comfortable, but the highlight of this property was definitely the location! A short walk from both the Virginia State Capitol, Belle Isle, and all of my favorite restaurants and shops around the campus of VCU. I’d especially like to shout-out Destiny at the front, she welcomed me smiling and made me feel very appreciated throughout my entire stay. That first impression meant a lot! Macy at Byrdhouse was also exceptional and helped me order the perfect meal to enjoy a lovely sunset on the rooftop! I am eager to return, 5/5!

"Will never come back"

1.0

Not much

Bartenders that did not know how to mix a drink. Limited wine selection. Room service that never shows up. Dangerous stairwell. Hidden fee's. The room was definitely not worth the money. Will not be back.

"Great stay that was close to everywhere I wanted to go. The hotel was clean, quiet, very comfortable, and safe."

10.0

The property was clean and spacious. The staff were amazing! Although, I prefer to park my own car, having the valet service was nice.

I was disappointed that the rooftop bar area was still closed due to renovations.

"Incredible service from Chiquita!"

10.0

Our stay at the Graduate Richmond was fantastic, but Chiquita truly made it exceptional. She went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of, handling everything with such warmth and professionalism. Chiquita is a total rockstar and we will definitely be back to The Graduate because of her! Thank you Chiquita!
