I use to like staying here, service was sub par couldn’t get hot water to make a cup of tea this morning. No refrigerator provided in my room. I wanted to extend my stay for two more nights, but why stay where you are uncomfortable. I’m heading across the street to the Omni.

The Berkeley Hotel is everyone in my family's favorite place to stay in Richmond. Not only is it a beautiful hotel with spacious rooms, but it also has an amazing restaurant that never disappoints and a staff that truly cares about your stay. We've stayed here numerous times over the past 5 years and that's always been consistent.

The building is a little old, but it's charming. Location is amazing. Found a lot of great restaurants in the area that are within walking distance. However, me and my best friend had to cut our stay short. Came back after a night out and our room had been entered while we were gone. The shift manager was kind and allowed us a refund for the night.

Nice property, made to look historic but quite modern. Walkable to restaurants and capital building. Seemed to be only one person as valet/bellman. Plan ahead to get your car-took 40 minutes.
