Top Virginia Discovery Museum Hotel Reviews

English Inn of Charlottesville

10/10 Excellent

"I loved this hotel. It had it all. Tea and cookies in the afternoon and a bountiful, full buffet for breakfast. I felt like a VIP even though I paid about what I normally pay for a hotel. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. Great hotel! If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would!"

Stylish Downtown Mall Loft with Rooftop

8/10 Good

"We had a great time staying in Charlottesville! Gatsby was a great choice for what we wanted to do during our visit, particularly it's location on the Downtown Mall shopping strip. Positives:-Check-in was extremely organized-Gatsby was very clean/all house equipment worked well-Location is perfect for those looking to spend time shopping up and down the wonderful shops and restaurants at the Downtown Mall. We spent lots of time there. Many great restaurants! Our favorite- The Bebedero (Mexican cuisine)-Everything was ready to go for us when we arrived and everything worked.-Host was extremely timely with communications, directions, and answering any questions we had.-Location always felt safe/secureThings to consider when staying at Gatsby based on our experience:-There is only one available place to store clothing/possessions, located on the first floor. No closet space or dressers available in bedrooms.-There is no parking provided for the unit, it's located about one block away and costs 12 per day.-No elevator access-Coffee maker listed is not exactly a coffee maker, as in makes cups of coffee. It's a Nespresso machine. There are some great coffee shops very close though.-If you like to sleep in the dark, I recommend bringing an eye mask. It's always very bright in the house, which is good during the day, but it was hard for me to sleep it was so bright in the house at night.-No table to eat at; only three stools to sit at the kitchen counter"

Jefferson Guest House | Entirely Renovated

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay here with 3 other couples on our trip to Monticello to celebrate the 250 America celebration! The location was perfect! Walking distance to Charlottesville main street with all the shops and restaurants. The place itself was stunning. So beautifully decorated with quality furniture. Not overdone, but just right. We had plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen was spectacular, with a huge center island that accommodated everyone. I love that it's not someone's home, but is run by a hospitality group. There were no personal items left around. Felt more like a high end hotel than a home. We had a few plumbing issues, but nothing that had to be addressed right away. More that I wanted to inform them for future guests benefit. And while we were there for the holiday weekend, communication with the host was excellent. Always got back to me within minutes. Highly recommend this place. You will not be disappointed. We were sorry to hear the Common House had been closed we would have liked to experience that, but there was plenty of other things to do right outside our door."

Historic Beauty and Walkable to Everywhere

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I love this place! We have stayed several times and will be back in August. It’s a lovely, comfortable space, in a cool neighborhood. Around the corner from all the great Belmont restaurants and very close/easy walk to the Downtown Mall. Highly, highly recommend!"

Downtown C'ville Luxury w/ Rooftop Terrace

8/10 Good

"The property is in a great location for walking to shopping, market, restaurants, etc.The kitchen needs a few more utensils...namely a can opener. We couldn't get the ice maker to work, but it may have been operator error. It's located VERY close to railroad tracks...so if noise is an issue, or you get scared easily, you might think twice about staying here....but it wasn't a problem for us. We wanted to use the outside amenities....& they were Very Dirty...understandable that its close to the tracks....but the extra effort to clean was Not put forth, however, they did return to clean anything we asked. Attention to detail in cleaning is an issue, as others have stated. Floors seem to have only ever been swept, fixtures are dusty & missing light bulbs. I think the host could do a better job of checking out this property. Also, we Never got Hot water in master shower...only in sinks.However, the beds were very comfortable, & there was plenty of room for all of us to be together, or apart. We went ballooning, tubing,& winerys & they were all convenient from this property."
