A great hotel located in a very delightful area. Between restaurants, bars, and strolling in a very historic area you can have a wonderful stay and return to a great room to relax. The location is perfect!

I had the opportunity to spend one Sunday night here at the Berkeley using a Groupon voucher. I was pleasantly surprised with my spacious, lovely room that had a glorious balcony overlooking the cobblestoned Carey Street. This hotel is in a great location where one can walk to the downtown . I enjoyed walking around the Capital and Shockoe Slip... More

This European style hotel located in the historic district of Richmond VA (the Shockoe Slip neighborhood) was recommended, among others, by the service representative at the Convention Center. Our choice proved to be very wise. This elegant hotel is within walking distance of the “Canal Walk”, Belle Island, Tredegar Iron Works, the State Capitol and government buildings enclave. It is...

This was an elegant, well located hotel. Valet parking ($20 a night), full dining room, complimentary coffee, excellent location, friendly and sophisticated staff. There is a starbucks right across the street, which came in handy.

We spent 3 nights at the property in a 3rd floor room with a balcony on Cary St. Being right across from a large, popular bar/restaurant we were afraid it would be noisy at night, but we never heard a thing. The bed was comfortable, the room clean and spacious. Can't ask for much more from a hotel. The bar... More

My husband and i spent one night at the Berkeley and really enjoyed the location. There are a lot of restaurants within easy walking distance. Cary St is cobblestone outside the hotel and the hotel is surrounded by historic store fronts. The canal walk is close as well. Our room (509) was surprisingly large and included a full-sized sofa and... More

Lovely hotel....it is right in the heart of the city so I was concerned about parking. We lucked out and found a spot right across the street and were able to park for free. I only stayed one night . We got there after 9:00 pm so it only served as a place to lay our heads for the night... More

Superb location, beautiful accommodations, and excellent service. Complimentary lobby coffee in the morning is a nice touch, even though there's a stocked coffee maker in the room. Would definitely recommend and will look forward to staying again!
